Fall 2023 - I took this class because there were only positive reviews and I feel that it would be a disservice not to warn people about what the class is actually like. Professor Nagle invites interesting and qualified industry professionals to speak in his class and does not let them get a word in. He makes his own slides for each guest and mansplains what they do to the class, despite being much less knowledgable about the subject matter. The lectures are each 3 hours long but they could probably be less than an hour if he didn't spend so much time name dropping and telling long, irrelevant stories. He forgot to book our classroom for the final and is now going viral on tik tok for yelling at the professor who's class had every right to be there. https://www.tiktok.com/@quantaviousjrthesecond/video/**********579636011?_r=1&_t=8iDG9azFOJP
