    Professor Silva is just awesome. I liked his approach to the class. Basically, discussed readings and did a couple of papers. He knows how to get a student to think. Overall, such a great professor.

    Best class I have taken at UCSB, no doubt. Great professor, great class. If you find it uninteresting or too challenging, then you are just simply incompetent.

    Awesome teacher! You can really tell he loves what he does. Super helpful and will work with you to help bring your grade up. Class was really interesting as well. If you can take a class with Al, TAKE IT! Probably my favorite professor
