Gen Ed* took in 2010-2011 with prof who is not there, he was amazing! However, course is now run by another professor who is really nice as well. Course is very boring and tedious; have to buy like 15 novels which you have to read portions every week. Difficult to keep up with and have to hand in summaries. Tutorials are tedious sometimes because the book is gone over again and concepts are pulled out. Exam has fill in the blanks, true or false, and short essays to write about from a choice of essay question. 9 Credit course, some of which will transfer as an elective credit if you only needed 6 credits.

Course does ask for participation and interaction between students during lectures and tutorials, and the novels are not that amazing/exciting except a few-somewhat.
