| course : | PHI 300 |
| course rating : | 1 - Bad |
| course comments : | I found the material very dense, mostly uninteresting. A lot of reading involved. Covered the Presocratics, Plato, and Aristotle. Very tough for anyone who hasn't taken philosophy before. |
| class : | Spring 2003 section 001 |
| grade received : | B |
| class rating : | 1 - Bad |
| class comments : | We had to do a lot of reading and discuss it in class. We had three tests, which were just papers that we had to write on topics like, "discuss everything we've talked about so far." Class was incredibly boring. I dreaded going just about every day. |
| instructor : | Savage |
| instructor rating : | 1 - Bad |
| instructor comments : | A funny and nice guy, but one of the worst teachers I've had at State. He wouldn't check email, he gave almost zero feedback on papers, even when I asked him about it after class. Lectures involved listening to him talk about jibberish (how it seemed to me at least) for an hour and 20. Don't take this class if you can help it! |
