I love Dr. Pradhan, he makes lectures pretty interesting and he is very clear with what will be on the exams and tells us what specifically to take notes on and as long as you listen and study you will be fine. The only problem is he sometimes spends way too long on one topic and has to rush through the slides at the end, but he posts the slides on canvas so you can always just go look at them yourself if you need it. Discussions are mandatory but they’re easy too.

This class had a lot of overlap with NFSC100 but we were taught a lot about food processing basics. The exams were relatively easy if you paid attention and studied the content from lecture. Discussion was also easy, with two presentations about a nutrition topic and one short final paper over the course of the semester. The TAs did review the discussion before each exam as well, which was helpful. I would definitely recommend it as a gen ed if you are interested in nutrition, and I would recommend Dr. Pradhan (who taught half the lectures for my section). Pradhan was a good lecturer and made it clear what ideas to focus on for exams.

Didn't learn anything, but didn't need to. Easy A if you show up to discussions, and you don't even have to pay attention (I took the blended section). I have never seen this or the other professor, but I think they do recorded lectures or something. My TA handled all of the logistics, planning, and review.

Easy class as long as you actually watch the lectures, take notes, and study for exams. Lectures are asynchronous and discussion only meets once a week for an hour where all you do is 1 student presentation and a short quiz. There are short weekly homeworks which are easy - but if you tank the exams its hard to pull yourself up because all other assignments are less than 15 points. Not a super interesting course but easy Gen Ed.

Pretty funny guy and he knows his stuff too. Pretty much tells you exactly what is going to be on the exams. Class with him is pretty fun.
