DO NOT TAKE HIM. He is boring, and uninteresting.. I was excited to take his ethics class and absolutely hated that class. He just stands there and talks and talks foes off track and talks to himself about the most useless, dull, and poor examples ever. Everyone is falling asleep in the class. Vague and Unknowledgeable

Daniel means well but sometimes expectations for assignments are vague and you're left wondering whether or not you actually completed the assignments to the greatest extent. He is very accessible and gives lots of feedback, you just have to ask him questions to understand what he expects. Had interesting lectures and approached material very well.

This was my second class with Daniel, the other was more typical philosophy class. The class itself is useful, but more mechanical than other intro phil classes. Daniel is a great professor who will talk with you individually, not just about the course (I read a lot of existentialism and we talked about that). Go to lecture and office hours.

The class is super easy and I recommend it if you would like an easy A. Story is just particularly annoying and pretentious. He literally stands at the front of the class and reads from the textbook. He will also talk so long that you will get through maybe 4 slides in a 50 minute period. If you can, take this class with another professor.

I heard from a friend that Phil 3 was a fun class but I thought otherwise. Lectures are very boring, many students are just on their phones the entire time. TAs made the class manageable though. Section attendance is mandatory. There is a quiz for every unit we cover. Book not needed but helpful. Midterm and final are super long but not tedious.

For phil3 you really don't need the book as long as you pay attention in lecture but it can help if you don't understand things. Daniel's generally pretty good at explaining but some things he goes too fast on but you can ask questions in class and he takes time to answer all questions before continuing on. He's strict but not rude.
