This was my last class at UCSB, and I can confidently say this was the worst teacher I've ever had. He acted superior, made constant snarky remarks, and treated students unfairly. If you're a white male, expect to be singled out. His ego is massive and he pushes a strong agenda. Good luck to all those he reading this out loud too, you gonna need it

I enjoyed the content of the class and how Prof Lanuza delivered info, felt like I learned a lot and I don't mind the no technology use (made it easier to learn imo). But he was very disorganized with assignments and was lowkey mean (dont come late to class). Overall easy, just come to lecture, only graded on a few hws and midterm & final.

Professor Lanuza is the most disorganized, rude, and unaccommodating professor I've ever had. If you miss a lecture, he basically blames you for poor planning, even if you had a death in the family. He also doesn't respect DSP accommodations and will not fill proctor requests until days before the exam. Would not recommend this course at all.

No instructions provided ever. I had to email my Ta begging twice for instructions and I NEVER GOT THEM. The professor would never mention instructions or assignments until after their due dates. Lecture literally felt like torture so long so repetitive. Exams are full of trick questions and harder than he lets on. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS.

The worst professor I've ever had at UCSB. Horrible lectures, no usage of phones or laptops. Extremely boring. Also he doesn't care about your situation or anything, least understanding professor ever. 0/10

BEST CLASS! Does not want students that do not want to learn. No phones or computers- he will call you out. Lectures are interesting . He tells you EXACTLY what is on the midterm/ final. Had to reach out to the TA for directions for group paper but got 100% on it. Have to attend lecture, but an easy A if you attend and pay attention.
