Reviews of professor Brandon Golob

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Took him last quarter Pros: Interesting material/lectures, approachable personality, he is understanding too. Cons: no email response lots of writing definitely will work. He gave a mental health week Earned a bad grade from a TA that seemed unfair, he didn't change it regardless. but he gave me extra credit so I could get an A. might take again

 His professional knowledge is not enough to teach such a class. He teaches you very simple material in class and expects you to write a very thoughtful and critical essay which has to integrate his lesson materials as much as possible. I mean how could you do that if you basically learn nothing from the class. He also never replies you email.

The professor himself is super amazing, gives a mental health week before an essay is due, and brings his dog. The essays are tedious but the LAs are sooo helpful. Join the discord! And hopefully, you get a lenient TA. Super thoughtful and generous and you can also ask for extensions. Hes amazing! Weekly group work done in class too

Professor Golob himself is actually a pretty decent instructor. However, his TA's are what make this class a nightmare. They grade extremely harsh and never provide substantial feedback. On the bright side, Golob was one of my only professors to offer hybrid learning, so I did appreciate that, but beware of his nightmare TA's.

ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS PROFESSOR! Honestly one of the most caring professors that I've had. He's very accommodating and wants you to pass. Only 4 big papers and provides a lot of extra credit. Also provides great feedback on essays and responds quick to emails. Easy A despite this class being an upper division writing class if you do all the work.

Best professor. Class is based on two papers , some discussion post, class reflection (only if you attend in person class), warm-up survey & wrap up survey, group work which is pretty easy & a final project. Class is really interesting & although its like a 3 hour class his lectures are interesting.
