At Michigan, the only classes that I know of that are taught by TAs (PhD students in their final years) are:

Calculus 1 and 2 and I don’t see why tenure-track professors would want to waste their times teaching these type of courses, or why I needed them. I actually looked up my TAs after class ended, by my sophomore year they were both tenure-track faculties themselves at other universities.

I took Psych 101, and that was taught by a lecturer(non-tenure track faculty) in a lecture room, and then we had a TA(last year PhD) for our smaller discussion group.(~15-20 students). Actually for my physics 1 and 2 classes, our discussion group leaders were both full professors.
