Reviews of professor Paul Wolff Mitchell

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
He would go on tangents during class time but it was once a week and was usually interesting topics. Overall super easy just a lot of writing. If you read the textbook at least a little and can apply the definitions/topics to present issues you'll do fine. As long as you give clear thoughts in your assignments you will get a 100.

He isn't even in the country, the amount of work for each module is insane and grading instructions are unclear. Avoid if you can.

The course is interesting but dense. The professor is very smart and talks about a lot of different areas: biology, psychology, philosophy, archaeology, anthropology, politics. A lot of reading but if you pay attention to the lectures and do the homework on time, it is not bad. Not the easiest A but not super hard, mind opening and worth taking.

Great professor, makes lectures very interesting and it's obvious that he loves what he does. You really have to listen to what he's saying though, he talks fast and doesn't put everything he discusses on the slides, but expects students to know it for the tests, so pay attention!

He's sometimes tangential, but always interesting, and very smart. Assignments are not hard if you read the book and listen in class. Mind opening lectures.

Paul is a good guy, and he obviously enjoys what he does very much. Beware though, the class is only graded by attendance and about 10 quizzes as well as a midterm and a final, which are both composed of all essays. Paul also talks very fast and says a lot of things that aren't on the slides, so you have to pay a lot of attention during lecture.

The issue I have for this class lies with the fact that it is only a 200 level course that has the work load of that of a hard 300 or normal 400 level class. There is a ton of reading a week with very dense, long lectures. The time given for all the information given is not nearly enough. Would avoid this class if you were looking for simple.
