Great professor and a nice guy, I enjoyed this class. The lectures were interesting. I took this as an elective and just wanted to get it over with, but I learned a lot of valuable information about the media.JRNL1150 2024-05-19 16:02:49 +0000 UTC
Dan has a ton of really interesting experience in his career, and his class is most interesting when you get him to talk about that. Ethics was a nice lecture course with good class participation, and he has a good style of teaching that elicits participation. Not a harsh grader either, and overall he made the class informative and interesting.JRNL4650 2021-12-19 20:03:21 +0000 UTC
Professor Lothian is so passionate about journalism and has so much experience (he was a white house correspondent for CNN). It is a smaller class and can get pretty boring, but the content is pretty interesting. Your grades consist of one easy exam, 2 essays, and one final essay and presentation. The final essay is lengthy but manageable! Easy AJRNL1150 2024-04-12 18:34:36 +0000 UTC
