Reviews of professor Patrick Cecil

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
This is a 3 hour class, which was tiring for me. You watch films and pause every so often to discuss about them. You need to participate at least once or twice to get the participation credit every class. You also write comparison papers every 2 weeks, which personally took me a long time. He's an easy grader though. Overall, pretty fun/easy class.

Cecil is a phenomenal professor and this class was great! He is very passionate about what he lectures, which makes it much more interesting. Don't take this class unless you're really in to history. There are a handful of quizzes and timed essays, and the midterm and final. Pay close attention to the lectures and study, and you'll be fine.

Dr. Cecil is literally the GOAT; unequivocally the greatest professor ever to grace the campus of Chapman University. He's hilarious, has an extremely adept understanding of not only how to teach the material but also is extremely passionate about it, and is a great guy to just have a conversation with.

Cecil is a great guy, he really wants you to learn the material. Make sure you go to class or you will not pass. History was one of my worst subjects but now it is one of my favorites, I am even minoring in it now. Take his class, it will be an easy A if you just simple do the work.

Dr. Cecil has high standards and can be a tough grader, but he's a really great teacher. Class sessions were questions and discussions about the readings, and it was already really informative and fun. Helps street students in the right direction and is always happy to help with questions and feedback.

Dr. Cecil is the best! This class is probably the easiest FFC :) All you do is watch movies and discuss them. You are graded on attendance and participation but that is easy. You write a total of 4 papers that are 1,000 words each and the final that is 2,000 words. Very chill class, cannot recommend it enough!

He's fine. Most of class is lecture and prepare to pay attention the whole time because the posts the slides but they have no words. I sat next to a friend in class and he would get mad at us for talking even if we weren't disrupting anyone. If you're good at multiple choice quizzes/tests, you'll do fine. Those in-class essays sucked though.
