CollegeHe made this class seem easy since he was clear with the requirements for the whole class and for each assignments! Great prof and definitely recommend him for WRIT 1!
Baron's first time teaching 105S, he did a great job. 3 papers and a final group portfolio project. Cool engagement with sustainability on campus and talk to people in envi fields, including a field trip/tour of the history museum. Grading was super fair. Concepts were a little basic as an ES major, but the papers were fun/engaging to write.
Super chill professor. He gives really good feedback on essays, which there are only three. He grades fairly, and it's not hard to get an A if you just come to class and turn in your assignments. He really makes his students feel comfortable and is pretty forgiving/understanding of personal circumstances.
Such a loving guy and a good lecturer. There are useful take-aways. He grades fairly, 50% on how much effort you spent and 50% on your actual work. He mentioned in the first class that if all works were done on an average level, then you are expected to get an A-. But it is not hard to get an A. His one-on-one meetings are really helpful!
I loved taking a class with Baron! He was caring, funny, & the classroom environment was really fun to be in. One of my all time favorite classes & the readings were interesting, so I could actually get through them! I'll be looking for other classes he's teaching & trying to get into them lol
Probably my favorite class I've taken so far! (I'm a 2nd year.) He's just such a lovely person and super accommodating. It's rare for me to find a class where so many of the readings are so good. His class had a really good balance of lecture and discussion. Take his classes! Take them!
