Great & funny guy, good area C GE since you're not really doing math. Class can be VERY tiresome because the topic isn't all that interesting. Exams are short and not heavily weighted. Bombed my exams and still got a B. Short weekly online quizzes you can redo until you get full points. Can be confusing at times but would recommend. He loves memes!

Kennedy is a nice guy, this is a fine class. Boring if you don't care about ling as a subject, but easy homework. His exams are no longer online though, which means u have to pay attention. Relatively easy, but ur TA can skew that the other way if ur unlucky. Nice Area C requirement, but nothing extraordinary. He's funny n pretty sassy too.

his final is cumulative, which sucks. the material isn't super difficult just takes a while to grasp an understanding of. he doesn't post lectures unless you directly email him for them, so you do have to attend those. overall, the course isn't super difficult but you have to pay attention in class.

Prof Kennedy is an awesome guy! His lectures are really interesting and he has a great sense of humor. SUPER understanding and really does care about his students. Tests are reasonable if you attend the lectures. Most of the test content comes from lectures. Eli review assignment is easy points if you do all parts. 100% would recommend this class.

Professor Kenndy is a great professor. He genuinely cares for his students and the material being shared. I took this for a prep for major course and will be taking another one of his courses (Ling 70) this winter. His class is straightforward, and the TAs are all great. I think his grading is fair, and that his lectures were truly interesting.

Slideshow with no pictures guide lectures. Material is generally dry for someone with basic background knowledge in linguistics, with occasional jokes. Concepts are well explained with examples used to parse out distinctions. Weekly checkpoints have an unlimited number of attempts and usually detailed feedback.
