CollegeHe takes advantage of the most marginalized students because we are the ones who turn to personal narrative. He pushes students to overshare because his classes are more for voyeurism than expression. Me and a few friends all took his class and liked him at first and due to his conduct we ended up with more trust issues.
Kip's teaching style either works great or is just not right for you; it's up to you to decide. More importantly, it's up to you to push your own boundaries and expectations. Those who complain usually fail to put in enough effort to step out of their comfort zones and explore new aspects of themselves. This class will change your life. Take it.
AMAZING LECTURES! So interesting, especially combined with his experience as an artist. Only take if you are an art major. Be prepared to get outside of your comfort zone for performance pieces though
Kip is amazing! If you show dedication, he will help you grow immensely as an artist.
I love Professor Kip! He is an amazing lecturer and you can tell he really cares about the subject and his students. The projects were interesting and gave students a lot of artistic license. If you like art, you will love Kip. But, if you are only taking this for a GE and don't care about the subject, you probably will not like the class.
Good speaker, inspiring, interesting, but rude. The most awful thing is to have political related topics in class. PLEASE STOP MENTIONING ANY POLITICAL ISSUES AS "ART" DURING THE LECTURE!
