PHIL133 . 6 Years Ago

Not too bad of a lecturer, but occasionally couldnt answer questions from the reading because he has taught this class for years and doesnt read the book every time. Also the last few classes are just for your own knowledge, nothing included on the final, so theyre basically optional

Never expect to have such a great ethics class. Professor is so patient and nice. Although I got confused about simple questions, Prof always patiently answers in details. He is amazing! I don't care about what grade I get, I just enjoy this class.

Pretty boring but great material and super easy to pass his class. You can try a limited amount, show up to the classes, make notes and get an A- easy. He's also fairly funny when responding to student questions, in a sarcastic kind of way.

This professor is easily one of the most boring professors that I've ever had. However, if you use the skeleton notes online and fit your own notes to that, you will easily succeed, it is a guaranteed B+ just for showing up and taking notes. Incredibly boring, but he is clear and straightforward.

PHIL107 . 8 Years Ago

This guy was painfully boring. He was a caring prof, but the reason why it was hard was because it was truly hard to be engaged in the course. That being said, all the test short answer questions were given to you beforehand (24 Qs given, 7 will be on the test). However they were hard & specific. Took a lot of effort to study. NOT worth your time.
