I took this class after taking PHIL170 and CMSC250. Go to every single class and you should get an A. His lectures were great and I was able to understand everything he taught (for the most part). He also made me laugh really hard a few times. If you are doing an upper-level concentration in philosophy as a computer science major, I would suggest taking PHIL370 with prof. Horty. The logic isn't super hard and you'll probably do well. I also probably only spent an hour on the class per week.

literally the greatest professor I've ever had. super understanding of student concerns, he will happily reschedule an exam if people don't feel prepared for it and want to review for an extra day or 2. His exams are simply a subset of the review questions that he hands out, meaning that a week or so prior to the exam, he will give you a practice exam, and then the actual exam will be selected questions from the practice exam (taken word-for-word). He just wants you to learn, not get tricked by an exam. Even though the class is an hour and 15 minutes, the exams take no longer than 20 minutes if you really know the material. Take him if you're interested in logic, because he makes it so interesting and stress-free at the same time.
