PHIL149 . Falvey K T 5 Years Ago

The first paper I wrote for him was well thought out and really discussed the different angles of the theories studied. I got a C-, so for the second paper, I dumbed it all down and regurgitated what he said how he said it. Got an A on that one. His lectures are streams of consciousness and he just wants to hear his own opinions in your papers.

PHIL127 . Falvey K T 9 Months Ago

I still don't have my grade. I'm upset because this is literally the last PHIL course I needed to take for my major. I wanted to declare early and nowwwww idk I have a NG now. The Prof was genuinely unprepared most of the time. Pretty sure half the class dropped. The class was repetitive, would have been better with a diff Prof.

Lectures are not helpful, and the notes given along with the reading are disorganized. The course depends heavily on self-study, but the essays are fine as long as one finishes the readings. The most annoying part is that grades are released after the registered ddl without any announcement and with no clear score displayed for one essay and final.
