This prof sucks. Cancelled class at least once a week. I attended 2 lectures, passed with a B+. He just goes over the slides and that's all you need to pass. I didn't learn anything. I took 126 AND 131 in the same qrtr. I got an A in 131, didn't go to a single class. Didn't even do the packback questions... and got an A. Dont ask me how.

He's a pretty tough professor. If you work hard and put in a lot of effort you will definitely get an A. In lecture he gives you a lot of information, but it comes in handy for writing the papers he assigns

Hes a nice guy but not a good professor. His lectures are boring and unorganized. 2 short papers and one research paper. I wouldnt recommend him or the class because its really boring & he didnt explain very well but i got a B+ so i guess i cant be too mad about it.
