This might come off as a very peculiar review, but something about this class was just odd to me. Don't get me wrong, the class is easy, with there being open note exams and easy note taking requirements, with a weekly discussion that is not super hard. On the other hand, Professor Butler seems oddly stingy about his grading abilities, and grades take weeks (if not MONTHS) to enter the gradebook. Again, not a hard class, just overall- weird.

This class is pretty easy and there isn't much work. Dr. Butler is super nice and his lectures are engaging.

The main complaint is how unfair/inconsistent the grading has been. Often times it felt like the professor and TAs just didn't want to give you full credit. Somehow they're always able to find something to complain about, especially regarding the research assignment. Additionally, the weekly discussion posts are boring, and writing them is surprisingly draining. Exams are online, pretty fair, but a little hard to prepare for. Overall, it's not the end of the world if he's the only option, but I'd suggest picking another professor

Class is boring, lectures are boring, and grading is frustrating. The TAs as well as the professor provide very vague instructions and are shocked when you give them vague answers. They never clarify what they're looking for, but grade pretty harshly. If there's another option, I'd advise picking them as this class's grading has been extremely frustrating. Also, the weekly discussion posts weren't interesting and were super draining to write.

Lucas Butler is a great teacher. His TAs grading can be somewhat tough at times, but (at least in my opinion) it is fairly done. There are weekly discussions and online quizzes that are very straightforward and often a great way to boost your grade. Questions on the quiz can sometimes be a bit ambiguous, however. The exams are online as well which is helpful, and he does curve. He genuinely cares about what he is teaching and is incredibly knowledgeable on the topics as well - he doesn't just read off the slides. Overall, since this is a required class for the HD minor or major, I recommend taking it with him as your professor.
