Prepare to read, read and read if you take this course with Stephan Muzzati. Other professors allow cheat sheets or don't even have exams.

A fun class that was weighed down by being an 8 AM on a Thursday. The professor tried to keep it fun but lectures dragged and most people left during break. Besides that grading was fair for a lower liberal course and we were allowed cheat sheets for the exam which made the end of the semester feel very light leading into summer.
