I think everyone should take a course with Professor Pellow while at UCSB. He's so kind and caring of his students. There are lots of extra credit opportunities. The class isn't too hard but I learned a lot from his lectures. Has a sense of humor too.

Prof. Pellow is AMAZING. Lecture slides don't provide much, so make sure to attend lectures and just understand key words and concepts. 2 midterms with 1 page back and front cheat sheet that you can bring, and they're generally super easy. 1 final project that you work on ahead of time. No other assignments, just do the readings for sections.

bro a chiller

i love this man. he's in my dream blunt rotation. very passionate about what he teaches and i was locked in for every lecture

Dr. Pellow is wonderful. Easiest GE I have taken at UCSB, just two papers and a fun project at the end of the quarter as a final. No sitting assessments or anything. You can tell Dr. Pellow cares a lot about his students and what he is teaching!

Great professor, interesting lectures. easy in-class assignments on random days. would take his class again, great for GE credit too

I adore this guy. Super interesting lectures, with lots of guest lecturers. Even in a 700+ person class, he remembered students' names and shouted out people's accomplishments. The class itself was really eye opening and overall a great GE. Two essays as midterms, and one big final project that you work on all quarter.

professor is so well-informed, passionate, and overall an amazing guy. no in person midterm or final, weekly readings for section but they were very interesting and overall highly recommend this class. a couple random in class assignments, but lots of extra credit opportunities too!

One of my favorite professors at UCSB! He's super passionate about the subject and made lectures super interesting. Go to lecture and you'll be fine.

ENVS3 with Pellow is a super easy GE. His lectures are packed with information and you can tell he is super passionate about the material. No exams, just two take-home essays and a final project that are super open ended. You don't need to go to lecture if you don't want to but there are in-class pop quizzes sometimes so make sure to go for those.

Go to lecture as slides do not have much content and he elaborates in class. Two easy essays that are thoroughly explained and final project. Both allow a lot of variation. Easy to talk to and loved attending his engaging lectures. My TA Nolan was also great and offered a ton of help for whatever questions I had. Overall, easy GE and learned a lot

Genuinely so slight. Incredibly passionate about his work and preachings. Class consists of 2 essays and a final project that are sooooo easy. My TA Brenda was awesome and I actually looked forward to going to sections. Take this class!
