I think Robert is a great professor. I can't really speak about his other classes but this seminar was good. He does go on a lot of tangents, and doesn't really stay on track, but I enjoyed going to class. He's funny.

He talks alot. This guy knows how to yap, but if you pay attention you find that his tangents often have some meaning. He seems very intimidating at first, but he's actually pretty relaxed if you communicate with him properly. He simply wants you to learn to write better, and thats exactly what the class is

If you like evolutionary psych and/or AI, this is your guy. LONG tangents, often on things that seem over the line to tell students. As an English major, everything introduced in this class had already been taught to me. However, this is a decently easy class (participation, a few short assignments and papers + revisions). Go to class. No canvas.

He is my favorite professor that I have had at UCSB! I believe that everyone should take his courses! After just a few weeks in his course, I feel that my writing has improved tremendously; additionally, I have had the opportunity to re-learn how to write grammatically correctly and use semi-colons properly.

i'm in this class currently and this guy is literally the best professor ever.

I am an international student but I really love this professor. I think he is the best professor and so far my favorite professor I have encountered in UCSB. His lecture is extremely funny and full with information outside of the classroom. It is interesting to listen to and I learned a lot. He is a very sweet and nice professor!
