CollegeTwo tests and 16 hw problems. Easy to follow and learning a lpt of stuff. Very humorous.
Nice TA, knows a lot about ethics. I'd definitely recommend him. Made the class more interesting.
Pretty boring lecturer that basically recites what the book already says in a more annoying manner...can't even count the number of times per day the guy says "or something like that". Shows up late and complains about tardiness of students. Overall an annoying guy and not a great teacher, but his class is easy.
Cool concept for a class, but at times it can be mind-blowing. May is a good young professor, and is willing to help. He compromised a lot in the year according to the students pace. He was very involved, no papers and 2 midterms and a final plus hw and weekly quizzes.
Looks like this guy's been a TA in the past. This quarter, he taught Phil 1 for the first time i think. He's a pretty solid prof, a nice guy and he is good at covering the basics. Not a huge fan of the subj matter tho.
Super Hard grader, very nitpicky.Knowledgable,was a good ethics TA but needs work as a professor in getting across what he expects.Going over less topics in more detail would make his class better.If you get him concentrate on his class.He is a nice guy however,a little too serious.Needs to worry more about learning and less about grades. Egotistic
