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.

LING160 . Kennedy R A 6 Years Ago

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.

Super cool guy, coursework was not difficult at all except for confusing exam questions. Not too much work, but lectures can get boring.

Very chill and nice guy, and explains concepts well. Class was super easy yet interesting. Exams were fair.

LING15 . Kennedy R A 6 Months Ago

Seems very kind.. but so boring. I didn't go to half the lectures because I couldn't pay attention. His slides are just plain text, and he reads definitions and random foreign languages for the whole class. The work is super easy, though, with only one small quiz per week. Tests are very hard however.

Covers a lot of interesting material and is super knowledgeable on it, too. You can retake the quizzes as many times as you'd like. Exams are fair, my TA was super nice, and though lecture attendance isn't mandatory (and you can use the slides posted to get the gist of anything you miss), he does reward attendance.
