Reviews of professor Samuel Collins

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Textbooks are free and he links them in the syllabus. THERE IS SO MUCH WORK. He assigns extremely long films (I'm talking an hour and half long MOVIES for homework), he assigns about 20-30 pages of reading a night on top of that. His exams are wayyyy too difficult. Super nice guy, and he's funny, but his class is definitely easy to fail.

Professor lectures from PP slides which are accessible on Bb. Short weekly quizzes, two ethnographic projects, discussion questions. Provides free, downloadable version of both required textbooks. Midterm and Final around 10 questions, similar to discussion questions. Very tough grader and not easily accessible outside of class time.

Five projects, a midterm and final. Not terribly difficult, but this is not a class where you can just simply skid by. Lectures can be a bit dry. He's also very responsive in providing feedback and assistance.

You need to read A LOT. Every week you have 2 articles that are 20 pages long. He only has 7 assignments but you only have to do 5. Then it's the midterm and final. He also doesn't explain the topic well and the midterm and final are RLY confusing. He doesn't finish his sentence when talking and expects you to understand him. Not a good professor
