He needs to realize that it is just a GE and IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE AN EASY A. What's the point of giving so many papers and grading them hard? Also u never know your score before the letter grade comes out. (FYI I got 3.97 gpa and this is the only A- in GE I ever got)

such an easy class, and nice professor. 2 simple listening quizes, and journals, and that was it, it was a breeze. plus the professor reminds me of Ross from friends, which was kind of fun

Professor Paul is one of the best professors I've ever had. The class is easy but really interesting, and the TAs are wonderful as well. Go to lecture, he's a really nice guy. It's a low stress class, especially since the midterm and final are just listening quizzes. Probably my favorite course I've taken at UCSB.

If you don't get an A in this class, you should be expelled. End of story. Nevertheless, Paul is a great professor. Fun, straight forward and simple.

Really grate professor. Passionate about what he is teaching and really tries to reach out to the class. Jokes with you and realizes that some of you just don't care and are there for the easy A which he lets you have. I will take ANY class he teaches!

As long as Music15 stays way it was last quarter, I definitely recommend taking it for a GE/GPA booster. The book is useless since all of his notes come straight from it. A good majority of your grade depends on your TA though. Jacob was nice but he graded the journals fairly hard. Regardless, I put in VERY little effort and ended up w/ a 95%.
