Review:
She is one of the best professors I've had. She's young and very relatable. She knows what she's talking about as she was part of the Israeli army and in the Israeli intelligence. She's extremely tolerant of alternate views. Just very smart and makes the subject extremely interesting.

Workload:
At the beginning the reading is a little more tough because it's all background. Lots of things to cover if not familiar with Jewish and Israeli history. Afterwards the reading is more interesting. 2 Papers - policy memos, final was very fair.

Review:
Ronnie is very enthusiastic about this course and she is from Israel so she knows a lot! Class is based pretty much on class participation, so unless you do the reading or are just an opinionated person who likes to talk then participation is not so easy.

Workload:
There was reading for every week. 2 policy memos and a final.
