Just show up to lecture and pay attention and you'll get an A. The guy gives out extra credit opportunities like its candy. Skim the readings. You can really tell he's passionate about the material.

Not too bad if you go to class. Prof is a bit uptight about attendance and will go above and beyond to get people to show up even though attendance is not required for lectures. Overall not too bad but be prepared to got to lecture most of the time

sleazy and unprofessional!! do not recommend this prof/class

Horrible professor!! Very unprofessional and disorganized. Will go to extreme lengths to make sure students fail

genuinely the most manipulative professor you will encounter. he refuses to post lectures until a few days before exams, refuses to upload grades into canvas (so your final grade is a complete surprise), cancelled all sections half way through the quarter, etc. for material the relatively simple, he goes beyond to make sure you can't succeed!!

this is the worst class i have taken at ucsb. professor busto goes above and beyond trying to manipulate his students, from not putting in grades at all into canvas and announcing assignments in class so students who don't come fail them. midterm average was a 66 and was only curved if you failed, very heavy reading load, terrible test format, etc
