ENVS3 . Pellow D N 6 Months Ago

You can tell he's very passionate about what he does and he wants everyone to succeed. The only thing that annoyed me was the final project because it was time consuming but it wasn't necessarily difficult, just felt like it should have been an extra credit option or smth since there was already a final, and he made it seem like it was just for fun

I took this class because someone on here said Professor Pellow was in his dream blunt rotation, and I couldn't agree more. He is very passionate and knowledgeable. There were two in-class essays that served as the "midterm and final", and one final project that could be worked on in groups. TAKE THIS CLASS!

Take this class if you need an easy GE!! Pellow is an awesome professor who is passionate about what he teaches. He lets you use a cheat sheet for the two in-class midterms we had and there is no final but rather a project that has to do with a topic in environmental studies. As long as you know the vocab from lectures and examples, you'll pass!!

Take this class! It was super easy but very inspiring. The lectures can be long and boring at time, but overall the content is great and I learned a ton. I was never stressed and got an A+.

Amazing professor, the lectures were very interesting, however not mandatory. There were five in-class assignments during lecture so I would recommend attending. The assignments were super easy. There were two in-class essays but you are allowed to have a cheat sheet which is super helpful.
