Fun! :)
by Manuel C. on June 7, 2023
First of all, I would like to thank all who graded my paper, and special thanks to Lisa who was patient in my redo attempts for my final paper. Thank you for giving me great feedback and for the support!! This was an overall good course with great material and hard yet satisfying essays. The only gripe I have is the amount of time it takes to grade the Touchstones, as it does say 3-5 business days, yet I think they take the weekends off... Anyways, great course. needs improvement on the grading time for the Touchstones :)
