PHIL 1175
Introduction to Ethics
1*
Pros: Ummm seriously? O yeah, it was only true false. that's about it.
Cons: 1st off, making this class my 8am was the biggest mistake ive ever made in my life.

This class is in no shape or form easy. if your looking to get a 4.0. get the heck out of this class. Only one person was eligible to receive an A this semester and that's because that person did amazing on the paper you have to write if you even want to be considered to receive an A.

Dudes simply a not a good teacher.

Im pretty sure he made some dude cry one morning because the poor guy answered a question as true and the kid didn't know the reasons to why the answer to the question was true.

Copious other reasons to why you shouldnt take this class with him but ill stop for now. Just read the other ratings if you dont believe me.
Check the cons. That is all.

PHIL 1175
Introduction to Ethics
1*
Pros: the only pro in this class is that the test consists of the study guide questions, like word for word from the study guide
Cons: true and fals cummulative tests for the semester. In order to get an A in his class, even if you have gotten all A's on the tests, you have to write a paper which made no sense
not a good teacher at all. He is very demeaning to the class. In the beginning of the semester he says that he welcomes questions and feedback, but when you give him that feedback he tears you down and makes you feel stupid! Avoid if all possible!

Pros: None
Roberts was an awful teacher!! He was rude, boring, and just a straight up asshole. He likes to make fun of people after they answer his questions incorectly and then gets upset when noone volunteers!! DON'T EVER START PACKING UP EARLLYYY!! He will seriously go insane if you do so. All test are true or false and the final is super hard. Worst mistake I ever took was taking him.

1*
Pros: if you don't like showing up to class then you'll love his class because he doesn't take attendance.
Cons: The only way to get an A is if you write a paper that he bashes you if you get the slightest thing wrong. All his tests are true/false 100 questions and the final is 150 questions.

4****
Pros: He posts a study guide at the beginning of the semester on blackboard and the study guide is actually all of the exam questions from all of the exams.
Do the study guide that he posts on blackboard. There is one paper that you have to write on Kant if you want an A in the class.
