I'm taking an online class with Prof Leavey and he gives amazing feedback on papers- you can tell tell he cares about his students. You have to do the work on your assignments but he's a fair grader.MSCR2325 2020-05-27 20:35:50 +0000 UTC
The course is 2hrs but feels like an eternity with how much stalling he does. Tangents, anecdotes, and awkward silences happen frequently which makes the whole thing painful. He's very nice, but sometimes its uncomfortable. Show up, say one thing a day, and do well on the 4 assignments he gives and be you'll be good.MSCR1320 2020-04-14 19:46:23 +0000 UTC
