Prof. Farmer is the best professor I've had at UT. She is very passionate about her lectures making them extremely engaging. Your grade in her UGS is dependent on the TA and how difficult of a grader they are. I learned so much in this class because of her teaching and I looked forward to attending lectures every T/TH.

The teacher is so engaging and amazing at lecturing. She only has two exams and some cute random assignments in class for random attendance grades. She is amazing, don't be scared.

Joy on earth. I would recommend professor Farmer to anyone interested in learning about Black History. Although there is a lot of reading, it is useful for class content. Her lectures were very engaging and thoughtfully communicated. I wish I could take another one of her classes!!

Grading criteria is very vague. Mixes around with attendance and participation grades (which was a whopping 25%). Hardly know where the grades come from as there was no clearly stated method to assess these and clearly that high of a percentage can make or break a grade. Content-wise a great class to take but ask yourself if it's worth it.

I took this class over the summer, and it wasn't too difficult. We had quizzes every week, but if you read the textbook it's easy. She's a pretty generous grader and gives a lot of critique/feedback for future reference. You can tell she genuinely wants you to succeed.
