Comment:
He spends multiple weeks on the same material, and makes the same points over again.BORING. You have to read the book and pay attention in class or you'll be in for a rude surprise come exam time. The work load is very light and not challenging, but the class is astoundingly terrible. If you can stay awake the whole time, pat yourself on the back.

Cool guy but the class is pretty complicated. No assignments except for one monster paper at the end. Attendance is not mandatory but will notice and not like you if you blow off the class. Grades basically on if he likes you or not.

Going to class is pointless. Just read the book and you'll be totally fine. He rambles on and on and doesn't say anything actually useful.

Rambles and explains things over and over again that are rather easy to understand. Read the book and take the mock quizes and you'll be more than fine.

Comment:
He is way to old to be teaching. Runs out of breath all the time and says "um" a lot. Gives a lot of homework but spends the entire day when it is due going over it so you can do most of it in class. He rambles on and on about nothing important. Read the book and do the homework and you'll be fine for the tests.

Comment:
Stay away if you can. Extremely boring and slow-paced, and often doesn't know what's on his own slides and strangely for an advertising professor often doesn't understand very obvious ads. Books are boring, assignments are stupid and time-consuming, tests can be a little tricky.

I was really excited for this class at the beginning of the semester, but GAHHHHHH it's SOOOOO BORING!!!!! A lot of what he teaches is so obvious that it makes you feel like you're wasting your time being there. He also likes to ramble.
