He's a very nice man (and sarcastic) and he's lenient on grading your speeches (there aren't many given). However,it never seems like he is sure about his lesson plan, but if you want to pass with an "A," especially if you aren't a great speaker, then take him. He's very easy-going & understanding.

He was consistently late for class, and then wasted remaining time by lecturing students about attendance. Often he didn't seem to understand the concepts he was trying to teach, and was very disorganized with respect to class assignments and due dates. He is very lenient with grades, but I hated his class, despite the easy A. Take someone else.

He is a great teacher. The exams are more difficult than you would expect them to be because he is a easygoing teacher. Exams are the least important part od the class. Do well on the speeches, and you shold get an A. If you pay attention at all, you should get an A easily.

I hate speaking in public but professor Campbell made this class super RELAXED. One rule for the class what happens in class stays in class. He is super understanding and very caring. Take his speech class you wont regret it. He is a bit weird at first but you will warm up to him. If you are easily offended do not take him.

Felt meh about this professor.. found him to be very harsh when critiquing your speeches. I know it's essential to improve but it's defiantly not the best when he says it a loud for everyone to hear. He's kind but do expect a bit harsh jokes. If you are incredibly shy (as I am).. I suggest you take it with another professor.

By far the best teacher I've ever had. You learn how to speak properly in front of people and class is enjoyable. He is hilarious, no homework, and only 3 speeches. Definitely reccommend, easy A!

3 hours of class with Professor Campbell seemed like nothing. He is genuinely nice, funny and understanding. I'm gonna miss his class. By the end of the term, you really get to meet everyone and make friends. Highly recommend! Even if you're an international student and your English is not perfect.

If you hate public speaking, take this class. Professor Campbell did a great job making the class a little more open to each other so it was easier to get up in front of the class and talk. I think we did 3 or 4 speeches, one test, and some fairly light reading homework. I really enjoyed this class.

At PBSC it is mandatory to take SPC 1017, and I am so glad that I picked Professor Campbell. He's witty, and there were only four speeches as your grade. He makes everyone feel comfortable, and at the end of the summer term I was lowkey sad that the class was over. I highly recommend, it's an easy A!

Best professor. At first, when I read his reviews I was very intrigued by them. But they are all true, what happens in the classroom stays in the classroom. He creates a very positive environment and is super chill. He is very understanding if you can't make a class, and it won't affect your grade if you let him know beforehand. 10/10!

He gives really good feedback to every speech, and he is really easy to contact outside of class. He also gives great letters of recommendation for his students.
