A laid back professor. He treats his students like they are in college, not like high schoolers, which I appreciated. His tests were interesting, he adds terms you choose from to add within the paper, which helps in giving clues if you happen to forget important pieces of what was taught. The readings were very interesting and every week I enjoyed what I was to learn next. I went to his office hours and he was supportive and willing to talk about school, life, career goals, etc. I suggest taking him, plus his lectures are podcasted but do not miss too many classes since this accounts for 10% participation grade.

He's a great professor. Exactly what I expect for a college environment. His lectures are informative and he goes over key points more than once, so taking notes for his class is a good experience. I really enjoy him and wish I would have taken more classes with him before my senior year. I haven't personally interacted with him but he absolutely is nice and will help you if you ask. 180A is so interesting I have actually done all the readings for the class! He deserves a much higher rating. Very solid class and professor.
