Comment :
Interesting course, opens your eyes up for sure. Took a while to get used to his teaching style, lots of articles that we went through. Kirkland is a great prof, has a sense of humor, made an 8:30am lecture enjoyable and i learned a lot. Not an easy course though. Midterm, group paper and a final exam, 25/35/40% split. Take it, good class.
