Amazing professor. Gives engaging and clear lectures. Puts lots of emphasis on important points and does not ask students to call upon abstract or irrelevant points.

Professor Johnson was incredibly accommodating in light of all that was happening during Fall 2020 (coronavirus, elections, etc.). He was very clear with his requirements and grading rubric. Much of why this class is so great is likely because he is a recent grad student himself and clearly emphasizes with our plight. Additionally, I really enjoyed learning about all the different urban planning concepts regarding New York, Chicago, and LA.

The class required approximately 5 short MC quizzes, 5 short written assignments responding to a forum prompt, 1 midterm, 1 group essay, and 1 final. If you watch the lectures attentively and skim the readings you should be fine with all of these.

The TA Taylor Aquino was especially awesome and made learning really fun. Please take her if you have the chance.
