Determinism is the doctrine that the laws of nature plus the past necessitate the future. Is determinism compatible with the view that we often act freely and are often morally responsible for what we do?

I took this class because he had so many good reviews. I worked super hard and I felt like he was unaccommaded to students during the pandemic. He had a lot of trouble with the technology. As a DSP student, he messed up the tests on GauchoSpace and made it MORE stressful for me, which is the opposite of why Im in DSP.
Jarrett is an interesting man. He wasn't the best at answering questions, but I thoroughly enjoyed his class. It was more discussion based which was really nice and he gave out relatively short readings (10 - 15 pages a night). He gives great feedback on papers and is overall a nice guy. Am currently taking him again.
Loads of his students find him hilarious - lots of jokes. If you understand the concepts you will pass easily, but some found this class conceptually more difficult than others. Explains well, good slides, all info on GS. Participation and attendance are graded which I hate - encourages unnecessary and ill-thought out contributions from students.
Great lecturer, keeps everyone interested. Daily quizzes but they help you actually learn the material. One midterm one essay and one final.
LOVE Prof. Jarrett!!!! His lectures are unskippable they're so funny and informative. He really expects a lot from his students and his class material reflects that. He grades harshly on tests and they're built to be concise, so you can't BS them, but he often curves to help students. Transparent and great, you'll "PARTY" in his class!!!!
Fantastic prof, genuinely the funniest guy on campus, relatively difficult compared to others and demands more from his students. His classes are real preparations for academic study in phil, they demand attentive reading and ability to digest and grasp abstract content. Phil 143 is fantastic. There's a reason all his courses are popular.
