Reviews of professor Diana Pino

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I loved this class! There is quite a large amount of reading to do every week and the quizzes are dependent on reading. If you don't read, you most likely won't do that well on the quiz since the questions are pulled directly from it. Otherwise, the content was interesting and the professor was very responsive to questions. Take her if you can!

Class can be difficult due to its workload, especially if you are not interested in the subject. Even so, I recommend taking it if you have at least a small interest in Latinos, or if you are a Latino psych student! Very interesting topics and the projects are fun to do too! Dr. Pino gives feedback on each of her assignments and she's ready to help

Professor Pino is amazing and very passionate about what she teaches. I would take her class again!

She is a great professor, but this class is A LOT of reading. I'd suggest this class if you're truly interested in learning about Latinos throughout the U.S. & how their living conditions are, how they began & how they have or have not changed. Sometimes it is interesting, at least when there's documentaries to watch. 3 exams and weekly discussions

She is a very nice professor. Tbh her class is very easy. Every week you have an assignment that is 2 pages long, and you will have 3 test. So far i've taken 2 and they're easy. As well as 3 essays. However, you don't have to go to class is unnecessary. All you do is talk in groups she doesn't even teach which is pointless. Anyways easy A.

I took this class as a fun elective but later regretted it. 2 page papers due EVERY Sunday and a 1 page response paper( or a 1 min audio/video) due every Monday. For an elective this class requires a lot of writing. Don't take it if you're looking for an easy stress free class. (Easy grader though)

took it in summer. Per week consists of reading 2 chapters, 2 research papers (sometimes more than 20 pgs), a 2 page (double-spaced) discussion post, a video response, and a difficult quiz on everything to top it off. There is also a project (either video or essay) The content itself is pretty ok, but its so annoying trying to keep up. Overwhelming

2 full pages are due every Sunday along with readings and long videos to watch. Felt very high stressed taking this course. Worried more about completing the 2 pages than focusing on learning the material.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS IF YOU WANT AN EASY ELECTIVE. Assignments are fairly easy, but there's A LOT of them. So much reading and writing and a bit of a tough grader. Overall did enjoy the class, but after a rough year this class really burnt me out.
