What has been your most impactful class?

My most impactful class has definitely been my Discovery Seminar, Military Coups and Popular Uprisings in Contemporary Africa. This class provided a great deal of insight into the ways in which different political systems work in Africa and how they have impacted Africa's countries and international relations today. Since I am African, I appreciated the opportunity to learn so much more about my heritage and the significant historical events that have shaped my country, Sudan, as well as many other African countries.
