CollegeHe 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.
Dr. Thomas is by far one of the best professors at UCSB. He is very kind, considerate, and extremely passionate about teaching students in the Writing department. He cares about all his students and their success. If you can take a class with him, take it! He is truly one of the best professors here!
I took 109 with Thomas and it was super chill. Lots of weekly assignments but they're pretty easy and fun (mostly discussion posts or short writings). Big paper due at the end but he really guides you through the process and gives you a lot of creative freedom/flexibility.
Professor Thomas is the best! The class is fun and deals a lot with gaming not just writing so its overall super interesting! Weekly hw is easy and doable and the end project is make your own game and an essay about it. No mid or final exam. He is one of the most accommodating, lenient, caring teachers Ive ever had at UCSB. Take him if you can!!!
