i love this man. he's in my dream blunt rotation. very passionate about what he teaches and i was locked in for every lecture
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!
Great professor, interesting lectures. easy in-class assignments on random days. would take his class again, great for GE credit too
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!
