Comment:
Biomedical ethics was a discussion based class with a stress free midterm and final essay. I would have loved to taken this course in person, but alas. Either way, Professor Campbell made the most of it and deserves 5 stars.

Comment:
Dr. Campbell was amazing. Very kind, and extremely knowledgeable. There is a lot of reading, but his lectures were discussion based and enjoyable. You will have to put in some effort, he isn't the kind to just give out A's. But he is so nice, and wonderful at answering questions, I didn't find the class too taxing. Would recommend!

Great instructor. Really good at engaging students into lively discussions on interesting ethical matters. He makes it interesting to learn and discover your own ethical stances. It was worth coming to the classes.

There are two exams, a few quizzes, and a term paper. Everything is open-note when it comes to the exams and quizzes. You get extra credit opportunities as well throughout the term. He is a great professor!

Comment:
This was one of the most useless and boring courses of my college career. He is a nice man but not interesting at all. The course material was just sort of lame. No tests, that was a plus. You just had to write a ton of papers. I never got above a B+ on any of them and got almost no feedback on them. Easy course; didn't really learn anything tho

Graded on participation (lecture & recitation) but I skipped 20% of the time and I still got an A. Lecture slides are posted online. I suggest downloading them and making one powerpoint even if you went to class because both the exams are open-everything. Then you won't even need to buy the textbook. Lots of extra credit available. CON: Long essays

Show up to class/recitation, don't procrastinate with the term-paper, and you'll do just fine

Great at engaging the class into rich discussions. I came to every lecture excited for discussions and to talk about the content. Breath of fresh air, but you have to put in quality work. He tries to approach the ethical dilemmas from an objective stand point, which really allows your learn and develop your own opinion. Great prof!

Courtney Campbell is a great professor with one of the best lexicons at OSU. He requires involvement in the class so be prepared to voice your opinion. he is a great moderator during in-class discussions. I highly recommend this course if you are interested in the field or are a pre-med/pharm/dent/...

Absolutely loved this class, and Dr. Campbell. He is SO knowledgable about bioethics and can really provoke discussion and personal beliefs out of anyone. He separates us into small groups based on values so you're with like minded people. Fantastic professor. Definitely take a class from him if you can!

Although the class was "death and dying" it was actually one of my favorite classes ever. He is a very kind, interesting professor and really loves what he teaches. I recommend this class to anyone!

Comment:
Prof. Campbell has a wealth of knowledge and his PHL 344 class is well structured and clear. he makes it easy to succeed. The difficult part is following his lectures. He often spends too much time on one subject and his public speaking skills are lacking. Be prepared to learn, that is, if you have the endurance to make it through the lectures.

Professor Campbell is great! He is an inspirational teacher and obviously - truly - cares about teaching his students... I would take any course that he teaches, and would recommend it to you as well. His power-points are long, but have much to offer. Wish I had met him earlier on in my undergraduate career.

I love the class but Dr. Courtney tends to talk too much on one subject. He will spend more than 15 minutes going over one lecture slide. Otherwise he is very helpful and the class is fascinating.

Dr. Campbell was a great professor who really got me interested in ethics. One of my favorite classes I've taken at OSU, and the small honors version is much better because it allows for more discussion. The only problem is the Powerpoints are fairly long and monotonous.

He is a decent teacher. The power point lectures are so boring. It is all common knowledge stuff, but the class is a fairly easy A.

I took several classes from Dr. Campbell as an undergrad and I have to say that he is one of the best professors on campus. The lectures are dry at times but the discussions and group work are great. Take his Death and Dying class when it is offered--one of the best classes you will ever take!
