great class and great professor. very comical. he definitely keeps your attention and helps you remember the arguments. the TA's were very helpful as well. i recommend any class taught by him.

Very funny. He finds ways to make things relevant or will say things so outrageous that they stick in your brain. It really helps when you have to memorize things. He has an awesome mind and the lectures are definitely more important that the books. No need to take notes, you'll have no problem remembering what he says.
This guy is sheer philosophical awesomeness. He knows his material like nothing else and while he can sometimes get carried away, he'll always explain fully. Try not to be late, or leave ealry, or yawn, he'll tear you a new one, but if you're interested in philosophy this guy is the best. The only complaint is that there is 3 essays.
entertaining at times, pretty funny, don't yawn in class or he will pick on u, the review sheets for the tests are the EXACT same questions as the test, so if u do them in advance, you will do fine.
take philosophy 4 with this guy, the material is interesting and he is funny as hell.
this class was aweomse. zimmerman is a great prof, he is so entertaining, i loved going to lectures. tests are easy too cause he gives you the questions before. i definetly reccommend taking this class.
Is there a bad thing you could say about Zimmerman...I mean seriously...he is awesome, except if you yawn in his class. Other than that, he makes lectures worth going to and he gives study guides for the test which as extremely helpful.
Awesome teacher who makes lectures fun.
Worked hard and got a C+. Glad I'm not majoring in Philosophy! =D
extremely entertaining AND informative lectures. aside from having to surpress yawns, i really enjoyed the class and i really learned a lot. i also got away with doing almost none of the readings and still got an A. definitely take.
Zimmerman is an incredible teacher, and I was sad after the class ended. He makes going to class fun, and you really don't have to do any of the reading. Tests are easy if you know the questions on his study guide. Honestly, I wish I could take this class again just to have more time around Zimmerman
if he didnt spend so much time being sarcastic and telling 300 kids not to yawn, maybe we would be able to get out of class 20 minutes early....and do something with our lives.
Awesome professor. Some of the topics didn't particularly pike my interest, but Zimmerman made class worth going to. Lectures were entertaining as he is a really witty, sarcastic, funny dude. People say he's like Seinfeld, which is quite true. Grade primarily based off essays, so concentrate on those. Good class.
Boy, he is good!
He made this class a lot of fun. His humor is like Jerry Seinfeld and cracks you up in class. Papers are worth like 70% so do well on those. But you don't have to read because he gives you handouts summarizing the readings, and he gives you a list of questions that will be on the test before! Pretty easy, and highly recommended!
The best teacher I have ever had. He is so funny and that keeps class so interesting. He wants to help his students and that is a rarity. He is also really cute and that NEVER hurts! Zimmerman Rocks!!!

Amazing teacher! Makes going to class entertaining and hilarious, especially when he makes fun of people. His Phil 100D class is also entertaining even though the actual subject is horrible!

So hot. Distustingly sarcastic, but I loved it. He makes the most boring class (ethics) really entertaining and its worth going to class just to see who he is going to make look like a dumbass next, hes awesome, sort of looks like jerry seinfeild, but a hoter. Tests are easy because you are given the questions before hand.
Zimmerman is great!! I had his honors section and he's really funny..he makes the boring material interesting and debating in class is fun! DON'T GET JOHN THE T.A. HE'S HORRIBLE!! I had him and pretty much that ruined the class for me! Otherwise, Zimmerman = the****!
So funny! I loved Zimmerman
Honestly, I laughed until it hurt during every lecture, but I only learned about philosophy of mind by reading the book. Lectures were def. fun, but low on content (i.e. critical analysis and original ideas). Not as intellectually stimulating as other upper div. classes I've taken.
