My favourite class that I have ever taken at UBC. Kasia is an amazing prof, and the material of the class is so engaging and dynamic.

Focuses on different types of resistance across the world.

Amazing! She had very clear expectations, provided incredibly detailed feedback on assignments, and was so enthusiastic about the material that it was contagious.

Readings are a must! Lectures are jam-packed with content but the material is very engaging so it's not too difficult, just time-consuming.

This course was awesome! All capitals A.W.E.S.O.M.E! Seriously, one of the most intellectually engaging, yet not too difficult courses I ever took at UBC!

Sam knows so much about Buddhism! Oh my Buddha!!! I have learned some stuff in this course about Buddhism that was at first counterintuitive, but as the course progressed the pieces of the puzzle fell into their proper places. Thank you Sam!

Talk to the prof if you have time to make it to optional Zoom sessions. And ask him about his experiences practicing many different Buddhist traditions. This guy is not just a walking encyclopedia of Buddhism, but apparently was a practicing Buddhist himself for many years. Great stuff!
