COMM89 . Merolla A J 7 Years Ago

Fav professor at UCSB so far. A genuine and funny professor, who makes lectures not only interesting but entertaining. Go to lecture, maybe refresh on some topics with the readings.. really straightforward tests + one research paper. You won't regret taking him!!

Andy is so sweet and funny. He is the best pro I've ever had at UCSB. Questions on midterm and final are very straightforward. Don't worry about it, just attend to lectures and read materials. (ANDY, I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Andy is my absolute favorite comm professor at UCSB. He's organized, funny and clearly loves his job and he wants all his students to do well. His lectures are very straight forward. As long as you go to class and do the readings, you'll get a good grade. The midterm and final are both strictly blue book. All short answer & essay questions.

Andy is definitely the best professor I've had at UCSB so far. He made Comm 89 so fun and it's now my favorite class I've taken so far too. He's hilarious and makes lectures really interesting so the material doesn't feel forced but fun to learn about. If you pay attention in lecture (which is easy) and do the readings it's an easy A!

Andy is the best professor at UCSB!! He honestly cares about his students. His exams were really fair and does not intentionally try to trick you. He's also a super charismatic lecturer. HANDS DOWN BEST CLASS I'VE EVER TAKEN AT UCSB.

Andy is such a sweet guy! I have so far taken Comm 1 with Mullin and compared to her, his tests are way more fair. Just make sure to look at your lecture notes and do your readings and you will be totally fine. But honestly Andy is super nice and clear on what he is looking for. Definitely would recommend to take a class with him!

I LOVE ANDYYYYYY. He's so sweet and charming in lectures, and he always has students interests at heart. What sets him apart from Mullin is that his tests are much more straightforward! Study your lecture notes and the concept guide he posts on gauchospace, and you will definitely get an A.

Andy has been the best professor I've had at UCSB so far. His lectures are super entertaining and he delivers the material in a way that makes yo remember it. His tests do not try to trick you and are very straightforward. He does a good job of understanding his students and making sure they understand the material before moving on.

Such a down to earth, funny guy. Recently came from Ohio State so he's adjusting to UCSB. His lectures are different from Mullin's all the best ways possible; straightforward, and comes straight from lecture/reading. He posts lecture slides online like a real homie. If you put effort in, it's easily best class you'll take that quarter.

He's an amazing professor! He knows how to engage the class and make lecture interesting. He's very smart and seems to be very passionate about the subject. There is one paper, a midterm and a final. All were very easy. As long as you go to class, do the readings on gauchospace and go over lecture slides, you'll do well!

Kindest teacher ever. Great sense of humor, you will never get bored in his class. Always here to help. As an international student, I came several times to him; he always helped me and cared about his students. + you will learn so much, Non verbal communication class was one of the most interesting classes I took! I discovered a lot. Thanks Andy!

amazing professor. new to ucsb. I have a lowkey crush on him because of how good of a teacher he is and how personable he is. He is one of those teachers that are passionate and it is obvious through his rich slides, and tremendous knowledge about what he is lecturing about. On top of all that he is soooo funny in lecture. 10/10 Andy.
