LOOVE Thomas, he is so passionate about what he teaches! Very encouraging about teaching even the hardest lessons! He posts study guides and pulls midterm/final questions directly from them. Such a chill guy, gonna miss him.

Super passionate and chill professor. His exam questions are all copied from the study guide he provided, which makes it really easy to do well in his class. Definitely recommend if you want to take an easy GE yet learn something new and meaningful!

Prof. Barrett is such a chill guy and genuinely wants everyone to succeed. Office hours are super informal but still helpful, I would go sometimes just to chat. He almost convinced me to double major in philosophy! 100% would take this class again.

Very interesting and fun GE. Prof. Barrett has great music taste, really cute baby pictures, and gives out kiwis for participation. Made what could easily be a difficult subject matter very easy to understand. Very reasonable homework load and thorough study guides for midterms and final. Would recommend!
