Reviews of professor Stephen Setman

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
you have to read A LOT almost new readings every class, and most of the time they are long, if you don't participate and join in on the discussions they class will be very awkward and boring.

When teaching, Dr. Setman used advanced language and showed an advanced learning ability and knowledge of philosophy and ethics, but sometimes during lectures it became confusing to me to understand what he was talking about.

This professor is a tough grader when it comes to his workshop assignments and his logic exercises assignment. He lectures a lot and he requires you to read a specific page of a reading for the unit before class.

Dr. Setman really cares about his students.  He is an attentive listener. There was a lot of reading for this course but it was to be expected in an honors course.  After submitting drafts of our papers he took the time to meet with each and every student one on one, and I believe we talked for about an hour.  Would definitely recommend him!

Professor was incredibly engaging and passionate while discussing course material in and out of lecture. Lots of required reading but uses a variety of techniques like use of the whiteboard to map out ideas, personal examples and engagement with students to better illustrate and simplify course subjects to ensure all students are on the same page.

There is a lot of sources to read up on as well as knowing what you are talking about. Be open to discussion and don't take things to heart.

Well Setman is a tough grader. Class is boring. Did enjoy how there was no necessary textbook. Lectured and wrote on a white board everyday. Hope you take good notes. Didn't allow for in class technology. Finally made class harder because he didn't want our "degree to be worth nothing" for a class that is a first year gen. ed course.

I took an honors class with him this semester and found his class to be very interesting. He ran this class as a seminar-style discussion, which he participated in but never shared his own opinions. He is always open to questions and disagreements. We only had one real assignment all semester, which is intimidating, but he works hard for students.

Very test heavy grading system but if you can perform well on the tests than you won't have too many issues.

The lectures were way more important than the readings; if you pay attention in class you will learn from him and get a good grade. He doesn't let you use technology in the classroom unless you get it approved, so class can sometimes get boring, but if you actually listen then you could learn a lot from him.
