Would not recommend. Worst class ive taken as a Phil major.

Lectures are not helpful, and the notes given along with the reading are disorganized. The course depends heavily on self-study, but the essays are fine as long as one finishes the readings. The most annoying part is that grades are released after the registered ddl without any announcement and with no clear score displayed for one essay and final.

The TA was a logician who graded papers as if there was a numerical scale you could use to evaluate philosophical understanding. Miss one minor concept, and boom, it goes from A to C. Lectures were so removed from the readings that they felt like separate ideas despite being about the reading. Also missed the grade deadline?? All-around messy class

Sent us an email that was very unprofessional towards T.A. because he gave us an "unauthorized extension," implied that he lied about it, and let us know there would be no further extensions in the course, then gave an extension on the next paper. Has now used an unauthorized extension herself in terms of submitting our grades after the deadline.

absolutely the worst philosophy professor in the department by FAR. not to mention the poor way he abuses his TAs.

I still don't have my grade. I'm upset because this is literally the last PHIL course I needed to take for my major. I wanted to declare early and nowwwww idk I have a NG now. The Prof was genuinely unprepared most of the time. Pretty sure half the class dropped. The class was repetitive, would have been better with a diff Prof.
