Great lecturer; the class format keeps it interesting, especially since he presents most of the lecture content with minimal slides and a greater emphasis on oral/visual lecturing. Definitely a class that isn't difficult if you give some effort and interest. There is a focus on the readings and other content to stay up to date with the course.

Great lectures, but you have to take notes yourself (slides don't help.) Exams not difficult and he made the class easier than syllabus initially said. Makes average at least 85-88% on all exams (no curve down) so A doable. A little bit hard to predict what comes day by day but overall manageable class.

Very disorganized and class structure was non-existent. Professor canceled many lectures and assigned a large research paper with ZERO instructions or a rubric. Also gave a random impromptu quiz at one point in the quarter with zero preparation in the class material. Assigned super long unnecessary readings and prof. has thick accent.

Stay away at all costs. Just like the last review said, this class was extremely disorganized with no clear grading criteria. You will need to read 20-50 pages a week, as expected of a GE. Prof. was very inaccessible online, however, and no-showed office hours he said were required. If doing for a GE, stay away from this Prof. TAs are good though.

DON'T waste your time on this professor. We were supposed to meet for 3 hrs on Mondays, but he canceled 7/10 times. When class did happen, it was only an hour. He even had the nerve to give an impromptu quiz after a month of canceled classes. The syllabus was one paragraph w/ no grading scale, & assignments seem thrown together. Unorganized class.

Solid lecturer and made the material interesting to a STEM major. Definitely attend lectures, since he bases the paper+exams heavily around lecture material **that I couldn't reliably find online**. Readings can be long but just get the general ideas of them and you'll be fine. TA's grade most of work, but he'll curve if they grade differently
