Dan Fuller's class is very easy. I read the book for his class initially but soon found that I did not need to anymore. He covers all the material in class and everything on the two weekly reading quizzes. Test are all memorization but he tells the class all that will be on the test.

Fuller is a passionate professor. You can tell he truly cares about what he's teaching. Honestly the class is super easy IF YOU STUDY for the midterm and final. He gives you all the topics to know. Just really study for the final and mid term. If you study a good amount the tests are easy. If you don't study fort the tests you WILL fail.

This class is super easy and straightforward. All you have to do is come to class, read the book (which he writes), take the quizzes (you get two chances), and memorize stuff for the tests. If you actually read the book and just memorize the pictures you should get an easy A. He's also super into photography and I love it!

The class is very boring. The exams are worth 25% an 35% and are extremely hard. You have to memorize over 100 pictures for each, who took them, and who is in them, and thats not even including the random facts you have to memorize in the hundreds. The lectures are long an boring and attendance is taken. Overall, Dan is nice, the class just sucks.

You either get an AB - A in this class, or you bomb it. It all depends on how much you study. Tests are multiple choice, so the details are important, but if you show up and do the online quizzes, you're halfway there.

The man is hilarious. Exams are kind of tough if you don't memorize everything. Overall a wonderful professor.
