Reviews of professor James Minton

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Disappointed that I didn't get to take this during non-covid times, but prof handled it well. Very understanding with extensions. 3 credit class that is definitely worth it if you feel your schedule for the quarter is a little empty.

This guy loves rap music but really doesnt know how to discuss race. He means well but is terrible at leading nuanced discussions and so people just volunteer their awful opinions on things they dont understand because he asks questions like what do you think about race and this song? Great at getting people into music, very accommodating.

Very easy class. If you know a lot of hip hop music it will be boring. Otherwise if you don't it could be a good learning experience. There are only 2 very short and easy assignments and very easy exams (midterm and final guide are basically the test themselves). Classes is just watching music videos for the most part followed by discussions.

If you need to satisfy your ER rating, TAKE THIS CLASS. All you have to do is show up to class and participate in in-class discussions and there is very little outside of class work. The study guides were also literally the exams, you can study the day before using quizlet for the questions and blaze through them in like 20 mins. Ike is the man!
