ASAM4 is not a course to enroll in if it is for requiring a GE. The prof assigns too much work and has harsh grading criteria, which translates into the TA giving unfair scores.

The lectures are pretty straightforward and informative, one of the highlights of the class. However, the sheer amount of work assigned is crazy. Expect to read for hours every day. If you truly love the subject I'm sure you will learn a ton but for those of us just trying to get some GE credit I would recommend staying away.

As much as I respect Professor Lily especially with her vast knowledge of the AsAm 04 course. She has left a sour taste in my mouth by clearly ignoring her emails even though she states she's 'reachable.' I won't go into details but I had an urgent matter and I emailed her but she is too busy to do so. Thank you Lily for showing inauthenticity.

She is really nice and caring, her lectures are really energetic. However, this course seems not fit for a GE course because it has too many workload! Some of the homework are just not necessary.... It has midterm+1800word spaper+final. If you just want to fulfill the GE requirement, I highly warm you to avoid this course!! It's so not worth it!!

Professor Welty is one of the nicest and caring professors there is. She is passionate in what she does and her positivity will rub off on you. One of the most interesting class I've taken at UCSB. I looked forward to attending lecture. She's available outside of office hours and is willing to help! She only comes in the Spring quarter, sadly.

Professor Tamai is such a kind, caring, and passionate person. I really enjoyed this class. There was a pretty heavy workload, especially for a GE, but nothing that was unmanageable. Definitely take this class to just get a better understanding of Asian American pop culture, it's so interesting. I personally loved the course.
