Professor Crosby is, by far, one of the best professors I’ve had at UCLA.

I love this class. Professor Crosby never failed to entertain us and keep us engaged. He was very understanding of online learning. However, there was a lot of busy work assigned. The readings are interesting as they are pretty universal. Professor Crosby values learning, which is apparent when he gives intense feedback on essays and held mandatory individual meetings with each student. I recommend taking this class, there are only 3 essays plus homework assignments.

Great professor, great class. It was a pity not taking this one as an in-person class due to the pandemic.

This professor is as simple and easy as it can get. Show up to class, do your homework, you get an A+. Professor grades on completion, so if you don't get an A, that's on you.

I think from the overall scores and reviews TAKE THIS CLASS. Its probably going to fill up due to all the amazing reviews but if you can takeeee ittttt. Homework is what you review in class so class times is always a discussion class rather than boring lectures! There is only one essay in which you turn it into a scholarly research essay. I cannot stress this enough it's an easy A if not easy B.

Crosby is a G. My friend took another ENGCOMP 3 prof and got destroyed. Take it with Crosby, do the readings, and enjoy your grade.

I was not a fan of this class. He said no phones or iPads but didn't say anything about computers, then got mad when we brought them to take notes. He said we can only bring our computers when he wanted us to. He make errors in the assignment description or assign the wrong thing and instead of fixing his mistake and accepting responsibility, he didn't bring it up and gave us bad score. He wasn't very understanding, even if you had valid reasons. During class he would constantly make us do group assignments. He showed us some very triggering things without even letting us know before hand (like people being lynched or set on fire). Attendance and participation was required, but a lot of the times he wouldn't plan the time during class accordingly and he would talk too much. This caused us to run out of time and everyone wasn't able to participate even though we raised our hands, then when it I brought it up he said I should've raised my hand faster. Either way someone wouldn't get credit because he loves to hear himself talk so much. He cancelled class one time because he was so tired, and then made us have individual zoom meetings during a holiday. The class was overall easy to get a good grade, but he made it unbearable. One of the worst professors I have had at this school.
