Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Cole is such a great professor for graphic design! He is funny, friendly, kind, and wants you to succeed! He gives you honest and critical feedback about your work which is a good thing! I have improved a lot as a designer with the feedback he has given me. The projects are also very fun.

Very nice, friendly, and tries to be as respectful as possible. Critiques are hard but are all valid, all are critiques to make your work the most attractive for professional work as possible. Late to every class due to commute issues. Most of the class was projects, I wish there was more smaller exercises to practice and learn more design rules.

Professor Moss is very clear on his grading criteria, which I really appreciated. Participation is important in this class, especially during critiques. Professor Moss's feedback is also incredibly constructive, and will be really helpful in the long run. Overall, I had a really great experience taking GMD101 with Moss.

Cole is tough, but you will learn a lot. He doesn't pull any punches, and expects a professional attitude. He is serious about art and design. If you are going to work in the graphic design industry this is what you can expect. The projects are fun, interesting, and challenging. Good luck.

Pretty nice guy except his critiques are intense. Biggest downfall he talks WAY too much & very fast, never got lab time which is the whole point in having 2.5 hour class. Rarely ever gave us the allotted 10 min break between lecture and lab. He would rather ramble on forever. Always late and expecting us to stay late. Requires camera to be on.

Moss was really cool & sees potential in students. This class was an easy A. As long as you do your best, participate, & show that you're trying /learning, you'll get an A. I had background knowledge using Adobe Photoshop, so it was easy for me to follow along, but I can imagine that it would be a little more difficult without any prior knowledge.

I've taken two classes with Cole now and he's been my favorite instructor since joining the GMD program. I found his instruction and critiques to be very helpful and encouraging. I learned how to think and view things as a designer from listening to his feedback. Would definitely take another class with him if I could!

Great professor. Very insightful and motivational. His methods for inspiration and direction can be a bit wild, but worth the try and outcome. Definitely recommend.

Cares about the subject and students. Sometimes projects are graded more on aesthetic than work, although he understands students are at different skill levels. Lectures were sporadic, cursory glances at Adobe with an expectation of outside learning for continual growth. Some students kept up, others got lost and dropped. Challenging class.
