Great Professor! I am taking PHI 227 (I didn't have the option to pick PHI 227), but we meet one day a week and discuss the readings. We have easy weekly quizzes on the readings, and we have to write 6 4-5 page essays before the final. He is very understanding, and a nice professor.
Great professor, everything was fun and made sense and allowed you to come up with your own opinion. The discussions were super fun and was always looking forward to come up with a point of view on it. Super respectful professor and just an overall great person. 10/10
The PHIL 100B taught by him is the worst philosophy course I have ever taken. I received an A in the PHIL 100A course. The PHIL 100B is difficult not because of its course material but the quality of his teaching. For most of the time, he does not even understand certain major themes.
Fantastic slides but lectures sometimes dragged on. The polls were a nice touch! The class itself is p fascinating and gives you a better perspective on some contentious topics. 5 short quizzes, a 5 page term paper, and a midterm and a final (both of which are two 2 page papers based directly on his lectures). Overall, a respectful and funny prof!
Not a difficult class if you attend every lecture and pay attention to the main points. Lots of Q and A, which can be useful if you ask questions but slows things down a little. Expectations are very clear, and the weekly quizzes are super easy if you just show up to lecture.
This class is interesting and pretty easy. Jeff keeps class interesting with polls and discussion mixed into lecture. He leaves lots of time for questions (this can sometimes make class drag on a bit but is also helpful at times) and is super accessible. If you apply yourself this class won't be a problem at all.
