I Need One Level 300/400 Elective
#1
I'm looking for recommendations for a level 300/400 elective, preferably with Dr. Zaborney if possible haha..

I have finished all the classes for my management minor and political science minor but I'm lacking one elective. 

Classes I've already taken from Dr. Z:

- Arab Israeli Conflict
- The Vietnam Wars
- European Governments and the EU
- Intro to Political Thought
- Modern Political Thought
- Marxism
- History of Infectious Disease

I think some people have said Constitutional Law is pretty quick and easy so if anyone could second that or recommend something else, I'd greatly appreciate it!

How was Dr. Z as a teacher? I have 8 electives to compete and thought about taking some of these courses.

Amazing. Best teacher I've had at UMPI.

Did you take them all in Brightspace? I need to knock out 3 by next Friday, so I'm trying to take quickest ones. Have you received any feedback about about POS 332: Constitutional Law? Thanks!

POS 211: Introduction to Political Thought
POS 301: European Governments
POS 332: Constitutional Law
POS 335: Modern Political Thought

Hmm, how fast can someone complete these now that they've gone to "Brightspace". Yes, I know, it's going to be subjective... How long did it take you?

Still really quick tbh. I was able to knock out each Dr. Z class in 2-3 days. I did 3 in one week at peak hustle. Comfortably, I would definitely say two classes per week.

Thanks for your insight. I need to add one more course so I can get a draft in by this Friday. Which was quicker to complete...do you suggest Intro to Political Thought or History of Infectious Diseases? Thanks!

Do you need it to fulfill a minor or anything? History of Infectious Diseases is two milestones and a final. The milestones are 500-words I think. Intro to Political Thought is three milestones, but the milestones are 300 words each. One final of 1500 words. They were both super easy.

Thanks. I'm getting a BLS w/Mgmt Minor. I needed some quick electives so I could finish 10 courses this term. Dr. Z is a godsend. Thanks for feedback, it's been super helpful.
