Reviews of professor Darren Hick

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I did not really like philosophy at all but I did like the class. Dr. Hick has a very big personality that at least keeps you entertained. He has two tests and two papers and quizzes about once a week. There assigned readings every day that really help you in the class, but he pretty much just goes over it the next day so if you skip some its ok.

He doesn't have any lecture slides (write down the majority of what he says and puts on the board). PLEASE do the readings, I didn't have enough time to read due to other classes, and my grades SUFFERED. Know the people and the concepts. Study groups are KEY. Don't go on your phone, he docks overall grade points. He is knowledgeable with chatGPT.

Love him as a person: super funny, interesting stories, and nice guy. The lectures however as long and monotonous. Readings were hard to understand and there were 8 pop quizzes throughout the semester that were 4-5 questions each. Hard grader, but willing to meet outside of class and help you through it.

While there are a lot of pop quizzes they dont matter much for your grade and the 2 lowest will be dropped! He is so funny! His lectures are always super engaging. Theres a lot of reading but it doesnt take long and the readings are not hard to follow! If you do the readings the quizzes are easy to pass!
