ESS140 . Hatcher K L 11 Months Ago

Easily one of the best professors I've ever had. He is a former D1 athletic director so his insight is super valuable. Very interesting lectures and always encouraged the class to participate in discussion. Two easy group projects and weekly quizzes determined the grade. Intelligent and straightforward guy, would 100% take this class again.

Hatcher worked in athletics departments for 20+ years so he knows a lot about sports management and gave insightful information and perspectives. Pretty simple and straightforward class.

ESS 160 was a super easy class. The class is discussion based so while attendance was not mandatory it did help when writing assignments. Every week you had to write 2 paragraphs about a topic we discussed, we had to write a 2 page paper I think twice and take 10 question quizzes weekly. Easy class, its most fun when you actually participate.

ESS132 . Hatcher K L 3 Years Ago

Professor Hatcher is a nice guy and constantly goes over the syllabus throughout the quarter to make sure all his students understand what's expected and what upcoming assignments there are. His grade mainly consisted of a weekly quiz, 2 group projects, and a paper. He graded every assignment fairly and it was a relatively low workload class.

Such an engaging professor. Talks about relevant and relatable topics. Very simple and straight forward. Just attend lecture and review before the exams and you should be good to go!
