CollegeLAIS 10 class: Professor Lupi doesn't even lecture, he has other professors from different departments lecture each week. 3 Essays for the entire quarter which sum up grade. Grading depends on TA . Section is mando with a group project. Do not take class if you cheeks at writing.
Never met a professor with no amount of compassion. Really disliked him. Horrible human being.
Lupi is great! Very interested in the students and passionate about his work! He teaches in his own style and Ive had better but he makes up for it with his passion for students and teaching. The texts are always interesting and he goes out of his way to help students. take his class hes great!
He's really passionate and knowledgeable about the material but hasn't mastered teaching. Jumps around a lot so it's hard to take notes; he just kind of talks at you. Expects you to go beyond class discussion on the tests and he is definitely a hard grader. Not a terrible class but if you can take it with someone else, do it.
I loved class with Professor Lupi! He is very sweet, understanding, and genuinely wants the best for all of his students. My TA Vanessa was also amazing! Not the easiest GE I've ever taken, but it wasn't super hard at all! Highly recommend!
This class was unthinkable. Lupi is a very passionate professor. The class was very reading heavy. There were biweekly discussion posts, 4 online quizzes, 2 exams, and 1 paper. You can lowkey finesse not doing the readings but still getting a decent grade. It isn't the most easy GE but it suffices.
