He is one of the nicest and most approachable teachers at UCSB. His class is very easy, just follow the directions and you will get an A.

christian was a great professor for writ 50, the classes were long (about 2 hrs) but discussions were very fun and he is great at making every student feel included. grade is mostly based on the final research project but you get more than enough time in class/out of class to work on it and he doesn't grade harshly. one of my fav classes

Not a harsh grader, very accessible. I always looked forward to his class. Workload very manageable, if you do what is assigned you will probably get an A.

A very enjoyable course; the professor was very enthusiastic. easyA.

Doesn't teach the class and entrusts all instruction and grading to TA's. Wouldn't recommend.

Best professor I've ever had. So chill, approachable, and passionate about teaching. He really wants to see you succeed, share your ideas and explore new ones. All the movies we had to watch for class were fire. Gives a few options every week. Watch Machete! Makes class a place you look forward to. Final project is article on movie of your choice.
