Khalifa is super passionate about philosophy, but the content can be difficult if philosophy doesn't come easy to you. I liked that the grade was based off of how you did on 10 quizzes that were online, and the two lowest grades were dropped. There was also no extra credit for the class. As long as you had a good TA and had a good grasp on the material then you should get an A. I think over 75% ended with an A- or higher! Probably one of the better philosophy classes to take it your major requires!
Only attended a single day of class. The grade in this class is made up of weekly quizzes, which are a bit difficult but if you do the readings or search it up on Google you can ultimately guess your way to the answers? Didn't spend much time on this class beyond time on the weekends when the quizzes were due, so if you want a class that will take up less of your time but still fulfill GE / major requirements, go for it. The one day I attended lecture, Prof Khalifa was going through the content EXTREMELY fast to the point where I knew that it would be difficult for me to learn; but he also cracked jokes here and there and tried to keep the class engaging. Good effort but wish he taught slower, I would've been much more likely to attend class.
One of my absolute favorite classes I have taken so far. I would recommend this to anybody. It is a class you actually feel engaged in and without a doubt will make a difference in your education.
