    Kanu is one of the best Comm profs I've had :) He is a new lecturer but he is extremely caring towards his students and is absolutely hilarious. Since 187 is "Data Science" Comm, it is heavy on beginner coding and data analysis, but the content/assignments are taught step-by-step and are very doable and easy to master even for coding newbies.

    COMM187 . 9 Months Ago

    Loved this class and professor. It was his first time teaching and he was so sweet and funny. Class split up into lectures and coding labs. Weekly coding assignments. 3 exams, non cumulative, fairly easy. Study guides cover exactly what's on the tests. Group coding project as final. Kanu and Hannah (TA) were super helpful if you're confused.

    Nice guy, but this class is an intermediate coding course. Weekly coding assignments (40% of grade), coding-based exams (30% of grade), and coding project. Also assigned online coding lessons because his in-class lessons were ineffective. Avoid if you want to take a regular Comm class. 2 stars because he at least provides study guides for exams.
