WRIT2 . Rutherford K A Month Ago

Professor Rutherford is such a nice guy. class is easy and straightforward. he's very open to extensions. does a bit of a weird grading system: if you just do the assignments, you get a B, and then you have to do a few extra assignments/revisions to get an A. some of the projects/writings are kind of annoying but as to be expected and super chill

Make sure you're engaged in class and doing more than the minimum requirements and you'll get an A in his class. He's very nice and definitely knows his stuff.

My actual goat. He is the coolest and sweetest professor ever. Workload is not too heavy and flexible with deadlines!!

Kevin is a great professor! As long as you try, you will pass the class. You have to do a few extra steps to actually get an A in the class, but that depends on you. Kevin is super chill and easy to talk to.
