CollegeRon is Awesome Sauce
Lol don't know why this professor is so highly rated. Half the class dropped after the first midterm. Material was abstract, boring, and useless. You're graded on 3 exams, 1 paper, 1 group project, and 5 other activities. Studied 15+ hours for the final and still got a C on it. If you have a life, don't take a class with this professor.
Prof Rice is a fantastic teacher. The class was genuinely interesting and engaging. If you attend lecture, you shouldn't have to do much outside reading to get an A. If you skip you'll have to read to catch up because the slides on their own aren't enough without his commentary during lecture. Syllabus is intimidating at first but not too bad!
Hands down the best professor I've ever had. He is hilarious and an exceptional lecturer. He somehow made me look forward to attending a 5 p.m. class. The assigned book was the first one I've genuinely enjoyed reading in college. There is an online version so it's free.3 in-person tests. Test questions are basically handed to you.
Ron has a great personality. I almost never missed class because I genuinely enjoyed it. His exams aren't too bad as long as you do the question stems. His powerpoints are kinda confusing but he does go over key reading points in class, so I almost never had to read. Id reccommend
