Ah, professor Longcore. What can I say about good old Travis. He's a funny guy here and there. He does have a tendency to talk kind of fast in lecture, but that's really all I can say bad about him. He's ok. In terms of Geo 108, its a pretty easy class and he knows it. The tests are straightforward and multiple choice. I just wrote most of what he said during lecture and studied my notes for the test. I didn't even open the book and got an A in the class. He even tells you he writes his tests in front of his computer with his notes on his lap. If you're freaking out about the website project, please don't. Its really pretty easy. Its not meant to be super scientific and stuffed with all this technical research and information. Its meant to be fun and informative and most of the information you can get from the course book to put on the site. So take this class if you can, especially if you're a Bio major because any class other than an EEB class is going to cause you less stress and work.

Winter 2023 - Took the course as an elective and enjoyed it. I had no prior knowledge/interest in geography but got an A. It was asynchronous online, but he was very communicative and his lectures were interesting and he was pretty funny imo. 5 modules, 1 short paper assignment, and 2 short essays for the final.
