Fall 2019 - Professor Hiltunen is hands down an amazing professor. He is extremely helpful and sincerely cares about his student's learning, and really works hard to make sure you understand the material. Office hours were quite engaging and he would work one on one to explain big concepts in Hobbes along with aiding in giving genuine help in papers. Also he is super witty and always makes funny comments to keep you entertained. The material is intriguing but gets a bit slow/boring at times, but I felt I did take in a lot from this course. I highly reccomend taking a class with him

Spring 2022 - I like Normore, however he does tend to be disorganized. This class consists of: 5 150-word summaries (1 optional), midterm, and final. He did upload all recorded meetings and slides. The TA Sindhu wasn't the best. They were unhelpful, and graded unfairly. They also were hard to contact for inquiries and etc;. I would definitely recommend if there is another TA, Normore was helpful as much as he could be. You can join virtually as well. Class material was interesting!
