Prof. Elizondo is passionate about ethics and has vast knowledge on the thinkers and theories of the discipline. He is an outstanding lecturer, illuminating the texts he carefully chooses in a meaningful way. Your grade is based on three papers quarter-long and one final paper, all of which are straightforward if you read and attend lecture.

Elizondo has very inspiring and good lectures! He covers the reading with a lot of detail during lecture so you didn't have to struggle with the dense concepts alone. Graded on three papers and a final (which,,, was just a paper) Great class!

The best. I literally love him. His lectures made dense material accessible through his thoughtfully crafted expositions + analyses. His section on Kant was particularly engaging, it is his area of research and it shows. I feel super lucky to have been able to take one of his classes and I hope to take more in the future!!

TBH, you don't need to read much to get good grade on papers. Prof Elizondo makes very detailed and insightful conclusions of the contents that needed to elaborate a good enough paper. Indeed some people might consider his lectures very dry but they are pretty comprehensible. Definite one of the best choice.

These are the clearest lectures that I have ever watched. All of the information is presented in a very nice and logical order. Just take lecture notes and writing the papers will be a breeze.

Prof. Elizondo is a good philosophy professor. The class is pretty much just 4- 3 page papers based on the reading and lectures - very doable. I found that writing the essays with a lot of points he makes in lectures is the best way to get a solid grade. His lectures are definitely dry at times but the class material is very interesting IMO.
