Honestly this class was not bad. The midterm and final require a lotttt of studying of the details, a tip is for every concept memorize 1-2 examples that you can apply. Weekly quizzes are 40% of the grade but they have unlimited attempts. There was a pre-curve for both exams which really helped, and I didn't find the exams as hard as I thought.

He is the GOAT! It is my fourth time taking prof. Kennedy's class. Assignments are easy to get full points, the term project is also very creative. The exams are somewhat hard, but he set reach-the-line grading criteria, making you get full points as long as you answer 72% of questions correctly.

I changed my major and avoided several classes because of this guy. He doesn't care about his students, only enjoys hearing himself speak. Have fun spending hours memorizing useless info that isn't applicable to anything else but his boring class. Terrible.

If you're a PBS Major looking for an easy prep for major course, take LING70 with Kennedy! He is very knowledgeable in the area and the course itself is set up for you to succeed. An A is very attainable and the TA's are super helpful. Overall the easiest and most interested prep for major I took!

Kennedy is a good professor in some aspects. He tries his best to be thorough with his content but sometimes falls short. It can be hard to follow along because his lectures are not very engaging. But I definitely did learn a lot in Ling 107, from both lecture and section

You could just attend lectures and not do any additional studying/work and end with an A. He's really knowledgeable and passionate about the content of the class and your grade is based off of quizzes and reflections where an A is guaranteed, along with exams. So your grade is more padded then it might be in some other GEs. Overall recommend!
