Professor Joyce is a good guy, just grades extremely difficult and his slides there is barely anything on it. Tests are difficult even if you study because the information is so vague. Class is a prereq only reason I took it, would just try to avoid him.

If I could give him zero stars I would. This class was the worst class I have ever taken. I am trying to think of a single thing I learned and nothing comes to mind. The lectures made zero sense, there are in-class assignments every class that are on things that we never learned. He brings up incredibly inappropriate topics (his alcohol addiction, suicide, and periods). Again, please remind me why my 40-year-old male professor is talking about menstruation in my media literacy class. Make it make sense. If you want to ruin your GPA and want to throw a chair at your professor in class then I highly recommend it.

Zelaya is cool. Grading is not super harsh and her expectations and lectures are very straight forward. Weekly/Biweekly open note quizzes, 3 small projects on what youve been reading, and 3 unit tests (all open note). Basically gives you the answers if you go to lecture, she goes in depth on each topic. Highly recommend.

Dr. Zelaya is a fine professor. I didn't find her COMM304 lectures particularly engaging. For a class that was 1 hour and 15 minutes, it felt like it dragged on. She is very passionate about communication research, but I felt like her lectures were not the most engaging. It did not help that most of the class was not engaged either. Overall, COMM304 was not hard. Not too many assignments with three online exams. She sometimes took attendance through in-class activities.

Great person, super understanding, and wants you to succeed. Don't be afraid to participate and ask questions. The material can be a lot but the lack of solo, in person exams makes up for it. I appreciate how everything is with a group and/or online.

Professor Maddux is great. She has personality during lecture, & understands her students. The class is very straightforward & easy to do well in. Read the articles, & do the in class assignments & the class is nothing to stress about.
