The registrar's own records: 43 grades over 3 terms, Fall 2021 to Fall 2025. Every instructor is pooled here.
What is inside that record
No summer session is in that record.
The table below splits them, and term averages across those 3 terms ran 3.76 to 3.89.
Historical grades for all professors, across recorded terms. The course summary above includes all professors.
- A+ 7 · 16.3%
- A 22 · 51.2%
- A- 8 · 18.6%
- B+ 4 · 9.3%
- B 1 · 2.3%
- C 1 · 2.3%
Percentages are of the 43 letter grades. Grey bars are non-letter outcomes.
How the non-letter outcomes are counted
They are excluded from the GPA entirely rather than scored, because counting a P as a 4.0 would be a fabrication.
By instructor
| Instructor | Predicted GPA | Raw | n | Terms | A range | Workload | Fall 2025 |

Why Predicted is not the Raw average
“Predicted” is shrunk toward the course average, which is itself shrunk toward the department, so an instructor with a handful of students sits near the course mean rather than topping the list.
Grade records describe outcomes. For what a course is like to take, read student reviews written on dibs below or follow the separate external review link.
Workload and assignments
Work types reported in BruinWalk reviews of this course, across recorded instructors and terms. They may differ from this term's syllabus.
What the work looks like
- 1 paper, said by 1 reviewer
- 1 presentation, said by 1 reviewer
Read from 12 reviews 26 days ago. dibs counts only what a review actually states, so a kind of work nobody mentioned is absent rather than zero.
What comes first
dibs has not read a class page for HNRS 11W in any term it holds, so it cannot say what comes before it.
Counted in courses rather than quarters: dibs does not know which of them a department lets you take together.
In Falls
Has not run in Fall in the 4 Falls dibs holds records for, back to Winter 2022. That is 4 years of grade records rather than the course catalog, so it says what has happened and not what the department will do next. dibs has no record of it in any quarter since Winter 2024.
From the terms dibs holds, which start in Fall 2021 and exclude summer. A department can run a course in a quarter it never has before.
From the registrar's catalog
Seminar, three hours. Enforced requisite: English Composition 3. Exploration of literature (and some film, music, and fine art) that emerged after World War II in postmodern era. Postmodern literature and other postmodern cultural forms challenge master narratives or belief systems, fostering skepticism toward totalizing truth claims while encouraging us to embrace diverse perspectives and heterogeneous models of identity. Satisfies Writing II requirement. Letter grading.
