CollegeProfessor Park is an exceedingly empathetic, kind, knowledgable, and caring human being. He explains things wonderfully and is always open to comments/questions. As long as you attend class and listen to his lectures you will be fine. I highly recommend him for any student at UCSB.
I also enjoyed his class, he uses powerpoint lectures and expects you to do the reading. He is VERY accomodating, just talk to him, encourages students to use office hours, esp to talk about paper, even provides books to use if you're stuck.
He has a JD, try to keep up with his summarious lectures by doing all required readings.
Professor Park was one of the best professors I've came in contact with at UCSB. The class consisted of three online essays. He was so passionate about the coursework and overall wanted students to be engaged and do well in the class. I would definitely take his class again
Professor Park is very passionate and knowledgeable about the subject. He assigns a lot of readings which can be difficult to understand and complete. 2 midterms and 1 final which are all in person written essay exams. Pretty difficult class but worthwhile subject
The two midterms + final are all in-person timed writes (two timed essays for the final), so beware. I definitely struggled because timed writes aren't my strong suit, but he is truly a nice guy who knows his material in and out. Heavy on reading, which you actually have to do because he expects you to reference them in your essays.
