Truly is the kindest professor I've ever met. We have 2 exams throughout the semester, and both were online, open note, and had like 3 days to complete them, and the final was a 1-page paper. He cares so much about his students mental health and teaches at a great pace. He does like pop-up attendances, but it's only like 7 throughout the semester. Best professor I ever had, wish he taught all my classes.

Bryan Shannon is such an awesome professor. The class itself was extremely laid back, with exams and quizzes being online and open book. The only thing you really have to do is come to class, as he does graded discussion 1-2 times per week, and you need to be in class to sign the paper. The content was very straightforward and he provided the slides before the class so you can follow along. He's very receptive and open to constructive criticism on his teaching, and has changed the structure of the class based on student feedback. He's also hilarious, and definitely will catch you off guard with some of his anecdotes. Take his class for an easy grade!

Bryan Shannon was a great professor! He was really chill, and the lecture was extremely easy. I had a 9 am class, and it was kind of sad because no one would show up except for like 20 students. The quizzes are extremely easy and straight from the lecture that week. He does have random discussion questions, but those are also easy. The exams are very easy as well, and as long as you go to the lecture or look at the slides, you should be fine. Nearing the end of the semester, no one would come to class, so he would give the students there were there extra credit. There is no reason you should be doing badly in this class. Overall, he was great, and I would take this class again.

Bryan Shannon is more of a secondary professor for this class but he is so chill and nice. He always admits if a question on a quiz or exam is wrong or worded weirdly and will give credit back. I do recommend going to lecture since he does have random graded discussions. He is super helpful and super chill.
