Save urself some time and your sanity..do NOT take this class with Armbruster. TONS of reading, some have nothing to do w/ Chicano culture, tests do not cover any material discussed, passionate but spends too much time preaching and trying to get you to agree w/ his views than actually teaching anything of substance. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS
worst teacher of my college career
He is very passionate about what he talks about, but he does not talk about what is described in GOLD's online description. If you want to learn about the Chicano/a culture this is NOT for you. If you want to hear complaining about poverty and immigrant rights then by all means take the class. Also expect to read...a lot.
This professor is simply amazing! He sincerely cares about his students and his teaching style is great! I love how he gets his students engaged in the material he teaches! I highly recommend this professor!
Amazingly great professor, he is really concerned with you as a person. Does not throw in your face that he has a Ph.D. which makes him feel more approachable to share personal problems. Fantastic teacher!
Omg he was the best professor Ive had so far. He is definately passionate and inspiring. Plus the issues addresed in the class are really interesting. You learn a lot...BUT lots of reading.
Great professor. He was very passionate about his teaching which makes you engage in the reading as well as in the class. The reading is a lot but its very interesting, make sure you always attend lecture. Lecture is pretty fun.
He's a good professor with a lot of passion. His class is very comfortable and and he makes it easy to talk in class. Do your work and speak out in class. He's not easy but if you do your work, an A or B will be rewarded for sure.
