Reviews of professor Janie Francis-Asante

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Make sure you know the days you'll be meeting on zoom bc she does NOT specify on the syllabus. Everything will be from the books, so take notes & ask for study guides ahead of time, bc she won't just give one. The class rlly isn't that hard, if you try you'll pass. Also, get ready to answer some super unavoidable personal questions. She's cool tho

Do yourself a favor and find another professor. Class made more difficult than it needed to be. Not a lot of graded work, so you f-up once, might drop you a letter grade. Class is mostly debates but somehow you're supposed to conjure information out of seemingly thin air for midterm (no study guide given). Ran out of characters. Do not recommend.

Dr. Asante is tough on her students and expects a lot but if you stay on top of your work and show up to class it is very easy to get an A. She also assigns 4 papers and a group project which are very easy. her study guides could use a little work but other than that, great class and great professor.

There is a lot of writing and she grades it extremely tough. The class is discussion based so basically you have to teach and prepare yourself for the midterm and final. Make sure you read the textbooks on your free time because a lot of the test questions come from there.
