Reviews of professor Brett Sipes

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Professor Sipes was nice but I have to agree with everyone else's reviews. PRofessor Sipes did not grade anything until the last minute so I did not know how well I was doing in the class, his feedback was very vague and not very helpful and he would take a while to answer emails. His class is also heavy on homework.

Professor Sipes puts in as little effort as he can to keep his job. While he (usually) replied to my emails, there was almost always a 1-3 day delay. On some occasions, he didnt reply back at all. With each paper, he would take well over a month to grade and left very little feedback. You wont improve your writing skills in any way in his class.

This man doesn't grade

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Relatively easy class, lots of small grades but the larger papers you write hold extreme weight over them. Takes awhile to grade but offers revisions and gives good feedback. Responded to my emails within a week. References textbook chapters every so often but I never read them and still got good grades.

While the prof is nice, the feedback I got was very scarce. Within 2 weeks left of the semester, the 1st project out of 4 is the only project graded, not including the revised version. When I emailed the prof for feedback for said project, I was met with a vague response. It's heavy on writing & It's an easy A, at the expense of learning nothing.

Like others have mentioned, the biggest downfall of this class was the grading. The professor was very nice and made instructions clear, but I had no idea how I was doing when barely anything was graded until the last week of the semester. Feedback was also limited on the writing projects.
