CollegeThe best Communication professor at UCSB by a landslide. Will take his classes over and over again.
His class was so much fun and genuinely interesting! His lectures were never boring because he's super engaging and makes us do fun topic exercises. He makes us do a lot of group discussion with our table which keeps the energy up. His midterm was a bit difficult but there are a lot more opportunities to get a good grade (extra credit offered)!
He loves his students and super dedicated. He is very helpful and understanding
COMM188 was one of the most memorable classes I've taken at UCSB. Professor Lane and TA were very accessible if you ever needed help. Take the class, you will not regret it!
love that guy
Dr. Lane is very well-spoken and has put a lot of time and effort into this course. I took it as a summer course and while it was accelerated, I learned so much valuable information in this class. With interesting topics and straightforward video lectures, this class and professor are A+ quality.
