COMM 1800

Lectures are engaging and detailed study guides are provided, but the exams are purely conceptual and can occasionally feel a bit subjective. You can mostly skip the textbook since the core material is straightforward, though the case studies are deceptively difficult and will heavily drag your grade down if you underestimate them. Random attendance checks and weekly reflections make up a significant portion of the final score, so simply showing up, memorizing the posted slides, and claiming the available extra credit will easily keep you in A territory. It’s a painless, highly recommended requirement that rewards consistent class participation over heavy outside studying.
