GLOBL197A . Jacobs R E 5 Months Ago

didn't grade a single assignment until an hour before the grade deadline. miscalculated my grade too but would not reply to my emails so I'm stuck with a wrong grade. said he would grade early assignments so we could improve but never did. would always not reply to emails when we had questions and just felt lost throughout the entire course

I loved Prof Jacobs. He's an amazing lecturer and keeps class interesting. His Labor class was very current and relevant. We didn't get any grades until real late but he apologized and we were all happy with our grades. He's very caring in office hours. We had no exams. Just 3 short papers, 1 final essay. Real interesting readings. Great professor!

I do not know why this professor has bad reviews. Took his class and had to do 3 reading responses on articles read during class and two papers. Very straightforward assignments and a chill teacher. He is very knowledgeable and gets the students to participate and think during the lectures. Would highly recommend.

I believe this was Professor Jacob's first year at UCSB, so it was clear he was still adjusting to the University. Although the course was very test heavy (Midterm and Final), I found the course topics to be very interesting and Jacobs lectures very rewarding. You really just need the main points from each reading and author to pass the course.

THE WORST WORST professor ever. Ridiculous close book midterm and final. Both tests are in bluebook version, required to write essays and short responses in limited of time. No study guide, no review materials, all you can do for review is to read previous lecture slides. However, it does not help at all. DO NOT EVER TAKE HIS CLASS.
