It seems like this may be a bundle. I can’t find a version that has 1-3 but Amazon has 1-2 for $30
I also live in an apartament and I found some budget one that fits perfectly next to my couch. I am not from US but I give you a link from amazon with something similar to what I have, so you can have an idea about measurements and price and see if it fits in your apt: https://www.amazon.com/Exercise-Cycling-Stationary-Workout-Monitor/dp/B08HRHMZS4/ref=sr_1_1?crid=O2R2HXK2PGUL&keywords=spinning+bike&nav_sdd=aps&qid=1650606727&refinements=p_36%3A17431213011&rnid=17431212011&s=exercise-and-fitness&sprefix=spinning+b&sr=1-1
The wheel is pretty heavy, so you won't have issues getting a super good sweat. It may not be the most comfortable/ high end quality, but it gets the job done!
I haven't taken this class, but I've read the DiAngelo book (the author credited in the assignment page.) I can guarantee context is given and proven. u/Jaboticaballin here is the link to the book: it will address your question in the edit.

There is, in fact, a very scientific approach taken to social sciences, but unfortunately we are taught that "opinions" have just as much weight as studied theories when it comes to social sciences. It's unfortunate. I think you will appreciate this book, because it addresses your concern for scientific rigor and confirmation bias.
He got good marks on here.
Dumb question: what do you study in a philosophy class? Different philosophies from historical philosophers?
I studied engineering so political biases weren't a part of my education. Thank goodness.
I only had one professor discuss his political views in class, and that was a Book of Mormon instructor by the name of Byron Merrill. He never overtly endorsed a specific side, but he did contrast the left-wing, secularist culture of France (where he served his mission) with ours. He noted how modern French people don't see adultery and sexual misconduct as a big deal, and how it contributes to their society's decay. He also touched on the subject of taxation and how high taxes were immoral (he's a retired tax attorney.)
He's one of the most polarizing professors on campus: everyone either loved or hated his class.
You can always check www.isitdownrightnow.com to verify if a site is actually down or if it's just on your end. Looks like gab.com is currently down, though a comment said it was "down for maintenance" so we'll see.

We've been organizing thousands of DHS records, news stories, survivor stories, and more by state and program
There's a online archive being compiled for individual facilities, research, DHS records, police reports, media, and overall news stories. Here's about 18,000 files for you organized, dated and tagged: https://www.zotero.org/groups/4288739/breaking_code_silence/library
For the Utah-specific programs, go to Programs>Utah and you'll see a list of individual programs and files for them. It's a bit of a work in progress.
Wherever you end-up, I think you should wear this shirt to your first FHE...I love this shirt!
Use an app like AnkiDroid to study for things. It's a spaced repetition study app used mainly by language learners, but I also used it to memorize all the formulas needed for calculus, linear algebra, stats, and other classes. It's super helpful; wish I knew about it sooner.
I'm in a physics class and my prof recommended a HUION writing tablet to us for $20 ish. It's been working well for me. All you have to do is download the HUION software, pop a battery into the pen and you're ready to go! https://www.amazon.com/Huion-Inches-Tablet-Graphics-Drawing/dp/B00DTPYWBG
Wife got this for the same purpose. Took a little bit of fiddling to get it working with her macbook but now it works like a charm.
I love Orson Scott Card's novels, but he's a really a playwright posing as a novelist.
Steven Peck is doing something very different than what Card does.
Anyway - Scholar of Moab is an extraordinary book:
