Zachary Johnson AMST203 Expecting an A- Anonymous 12/23/2024	Class is interesting professor is chill. Cancels class a lot, didn’t meet for whole month yet still had to complete assignments so a little confused when having to teach yourself. Terrible with grades never really know your grade for the class. Lots of writing do not recommend taking if you are not into that. Topics are interesting always extra credit options. If you do the reading and try with the writing you should be fine.

Not good with grades never really know what you have in the class. Cancels class a lot didn’t meet for whole month but still got work so a little confusing when having to do the assignments. If you do the readings and try for the writing you should be fine.
Zachary Johnson AMST203 Expecting an A Anonymous 11/09/2023	Really chill professor and this class honestly taught me a lot I wasn't expecting to learn. Everything is done in groups and the work isn't difficult. He has weekly quizzes kahoot style but aren't bad. I think the topics in this class are incredibly important to learn and interesting overall.
Zachary Johnson AMST203 Expecting an A- soymilk 10/11/2021	Taking this class as a freshman connection student. We have classes once a week and it's been a month now. So far it's been good. I took this class expecting to learn about cultures and trends in America over time, but what we're actually learning is really different (ideologies and power systems but whatever). There's a LOT of readings and the articles are written in really academic styles. There are also occasional writing assignments (2 so far) and they're kind of confusing but it's manageable. He is really optimistic and lenient about things if you just let him know. There are no worksheet assignments yet and a lot of the scores come from reading annotations. Stay on his good side and you'll have a good year. I'll update again at the end of the semester.
Zachary Johnson AMST203 Expecting an A- Anonymous 05/10/2021	Nice, funny guy who's really smart and pretty flexible with stuff like due dates and deadlines. Clearly really invested in and enthusiastic about the material. Lots of reading and writing, but not hard to leave with a high grade if you keep up with everything. No in-class exams.
Zachary Johnson AMST203 Expecting an A Anonymous 11/17/2020	I signed up for American Pop Culture to examine our culture's influence on the processes of media production and consumption (copied from the syllabus). The class started out in this way but quickly turned into propaganda for the leftist's point of view. The topic of race was politicized and we entered discussions on topics that were unrelated to the course material, such as social media censorship. This class should be called political science or race studies, not pop culture. We could have spent more time learning about music and the arts, thigs that are a part of mass culture compared to focusing on issues that divide us. Thankfully, this class was very easy so I am glad that I can take my A and leave.
