Seriously, find another class to fill whatever prereq you need. It's easy to get annoyed during lecture with his "teaching" style. Most of the stuff we were tested on wasn't even covered in class. Professor is a tool, talked to him once but never bothered going back to him because he was useless and did more harm then good. UGH.
By far the worst class I have ever taken. I'm surprised he hasn't drowned in his own tears already. He will go on rampages about things that have nothing to do with the course description and won't listen to opinions opposing his. Too much reading with no purpose. His lectures are annoying. Test are ridiculously difficult. Do not take this class.
Probably one of the worst classes I've ever taken...the professor is a pretty nice guy for the most part (except the time he humiliated a girl for disagreeing with him) but the material he teaches isn't anything close to the course description, his passion (read:crying)gets old quick, and he focuses on the most specific,useless information on tests
Save urself some time and your sanity..do NOT take this class with Armbruster. TONS of reading, some have nothing to do w/ Chicano culture, tests do not cover any material discussed, passionate but spends too much time preaching and trying to get you to agree w/ his views than actually teaching anything of substance. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS
He is very passionate about what he talks about, but he does not talk about what is described in GOLD's online description. If you want to learn about the Chicano/a culture this is NOT for you. If you want to hear complaining about poverty and immigrant rights then by all means take the class. Also expect to read...a lot.
This professor is simply amazing! He sincerely cares about his students and his teaching style is great! I love how he gets his students engaged in the material he teaches! I highly recommend this professor!
Amazingly great professor, he is really concerned with you as a person. Does not throw in your face that he has a Ph.D. which makes him feel more approachable to share personal problems. Fantastic teacher!
He is an AMAZING professor!!! He's engaging in a class of about 500 people! There is a lot of reading but he goes over it in class and has review sessions to help in anyway possible! i LOVE the class because he made it interesting!
Omg he was the best professor Ive had so far. He is definately passionate and inspiring. Plus the issues addresed in the class are really interesting. You learn a lot...BUT lots of reading.
Great professor. He was very passionate about his teaching which makes you engage in the reading as well as in the class. The reading is a lot but its very interesting, make sure you always attend lecture. Lecture is pretty fun.
Prof. Armbruster was pretty cool, the only thing that i could say that i didnt like about this class was that there was a lot of reading but other than that i really enjoyed it. I love how passionate he is about his teaching. I know it sounds dumb but he actually made me want to learn. :]
