Extra credit for section attendance, and the concepts were easy to grasp. Highly recommend

Very interesting and fun GE. Prof. Barrett has great music taste, really cute baby pictures, and gives out kiwis for participation. Made what could easily be a difficult subject matter very easy to understand. Very reasonable homework load and thorough study guides for midterms and final. Would recommend!

The class itself was not what I expected, and it reminded me a lot of geometric proofs. There is a textbook that Thomas instructs the students to get, but I ultimately stopped using it around the first midterm. Everything on the exams is taken directly from the study guides. Lots of opportunities for extra credit, including attendance. Liked my TA.

What a great guy! I understand that this class can be hard if you're not doing the homework's and practicing outside of that. The 2 midterms and final all had study guides where he took problems directly onto the study guides to the tests. The best way I studied was doing the whole study guides and then making sure I knew how to do each problem!

He was such a great professor! The only thing I wish is if we could see our canvas grades earlier in the year, but it was an awesome class to be a part of.

Barrett was a great and caring professor! He was funny, made philosophy fun, and was always accessible outside of class. His office hours were always on the lawn outside the arbor and occasionally he brought his dog. As long as you attend lectures, you will def get a good grade :) will miss this class!

Barrett is an incredible lecturer, and has a very thoughtful and personal teaching style. His tests are short and easy, and all the questions come from resources he provides. The class is riddled with extra credit opportunities from attendance or homework. Great professor for an easy GE. Remember, this is my opinion. Your experience may differ.

LOVED THIS CLASS!!! His lectures were so entertaining and his teaching was clear. I've never learned so much or been so invested in a class. The content was difficult but I truly loved him. Go to his office hours!!!

Took this as a prerequisite for Film Bad Bad Idea Didn't realize this was also a pre for comp sci

My biggest mistake in this class was joining it. The reviews on here are capping hella. This class is like taking ochem.

DO NOT TAKE PHIL 3. his teaching is so confusing. I really do not like the homework site he uses for this class because it is also so confusing and if you don't get it right, there is no way to get help unless you take problems straight to him. If not, you will just have to move on and not get a pass for that problem. Study guides are GRADED.

Professor Barrett's PHIL 124 was honestly one of those classes I would go out of my way to make sure I wouldn't miss because I was so invested in Thomas' lectures. Not only does he make the material extremely fascinating and easily digestible for students, he is also HILARIOUS. The funny stories he'd tell us in class would genuinely make my day.
