Christian loves to make repetitive assignments and not clearly describe what papers are actually about. Then he grades tough even when he did not make the assignment clear.

Overall a great guy. He slammed me with some BC's on my first portfolios and I was frustrated so I started going to office hours and going through my papers with him. He can be really helpful if you ask for it (plus he will grade you easier if you are engaged). Short readings from CCC each class. Just show him your effort and you will get an A.
