Dr. Pellow is wonderful. Easiest GE I have taken at UCSB, just two papers and a fun project at the end of the quarter as a final. No sitting assessments or anything. You can tell Dr. Pellow cares a lot about his students and what he is teaching!

I adore this guy. Super interesting lectures, with lots of guest lecturers. Even in a 700+ person class, he remembered students' names and shouted out people's accomplishments. The class itself was really eye opening and overall a great GE. Two essays as midterms, and one big final project that you work on all quarter.

professor is so well-informed, passionate, and overall an amazing guy. no in person midterm or final, weekly readings for section but they were very interesting and overall highly recommend this class. a couple random in class assignments, but lots of extra credit opportunities too!
