Wonderful wonderful wonderful teacher!! I highly recommend his classes. He's very clear, informative, and willing to help. Also, very funny and highly entertaining. You'll love his class!

we had spend the whole class time talking about the middle finger and the f*word...i mean how cool is that...but really Milne is a really cool pro. but u DO need to work, read, and study. u do get to watch these really cool movies and maybe make a voodoo doll

I don't know why that last person didn't stay; I took him last semester and he is the coolest. Not as hard as people say, either.

great guy. This guy is funny, energetic, and knows how to entertain his class. He's very sarcastic and involves the class. You won't be bored. The tests are kinda hard. He gives u a study guide and if you go by that, you'll get a B on the tests no matter what, whether u understood or not.

Derek is a really fun teacher, and is very helpful.

VERY good class! If you have to take Anthro take Derek. He's enthusiastic, and entertaining, you will not be bored. You do have to study for his tests, but if you do, you'll do well. He gives everyone a lot of help wherever they need it. Lots of Xtra credit oppurtunities. GREAT class!

A great class! Very easy and the extra credit was fun! His tests are a little hard but even if you get C's on them you can still get an A in the class. He makes learning fun and his very funny. If you have to take an anthropology class take him because you will enjoy the class.

Coolest teacher ever. He is really easy to get along with. Easy tests. Funny.

He makes the class fun. He explains everything well.

Professor Milne is a wonderful professor. Keeps students attention through out the entir class. Would recommend taking Professor Milne's class.

I loved Derek's class! He explains everything well and kept the class interested. Very funny and intelligent! Highly recommended!!!

very intelligent,entertaining, makes anthropology extremely interesting.has a terrific sense of humor. the class isn't easy but if you put some thought into it it is do-able. best advice STUDY FOR QUIZZES!!!ask him if you don't unserstand he is very approachable and hot by the way!

He makes lectures very interesting. He also has this sarcastic humor thing. He's very approachable. Assignments are easy although tedious.

Excellent teacher. It is a difficult class and he made it very interesting and fun. Highly recmd taking his class.

He makes this class relatively interesting. Make sure to take notes and read the two books that's assisgn. Just browes through it and answer the questions. Majority of the test consist of homework and lecture. Ask questions about the homework cuz it will appear on the quizzes. If you pay attention, the class is an easy A.

Excellent teacher!!! Funny, intellegent and interesting... I highly recommend him to anyone taking an anthro class. We miss you at C.O.C!!!

He's amazing. Lots of work, but fair and always willing to do more than just the 2 hours of class. Take any of his classes.

He likes reading everyones comments here. He also cracks me up with his fart jokes. If you actually take the time to learn and study the material it's not a hard class at all.

Awesome teacher! Very funny. Highly recommended.

Very funny teacher and makes things interesting. I recommend him.

best professor on campus great tattoo..and definatly hot very helpful.. really cares.. a great heart...A+

A great & an honest professor! Very democratic! He cares for his students lots. Wants us to know as much material as possible. Has a sense of humor. Also a conservist - cares for the environment and the animals. Zoo trips, great to have - to learn and to help conserved the endangered species. He surely has an inner child within him! Interesting!

OMFG! Best flippin professor ever! His tests are hard but this is college and if you dont study it will reflect on your grade. He really cares about you even if your problems aren't class related. Totally recommend this teacher if you wanna have a good laugh, a good sight, and leave with a great experience!

oh my gosh,tests are difficult..but he's a very nice man.I do like the way he is but i dont like his TESTS at all.Professor,I know you are reading this but i just want to tell you that your tests are difficult and we just take class in order to get AA or transfer.We are not all Anthropology Major...So please dont let us fail your class..

he is good, may God bless him, this professor is a vluable asset for pcc( sorry mr derek ^_^) he is so smart and funny, give me a lot of stuff/ inspiration/new things even my major is art-design...( unrelated major. You should take mr derek class while in PCC !!! Percayalah!!

really great proffessor with genuine passion for the subject.Everybody says his tests are hard but I personally had no problem with them because i always did the reading thouroughly. Tends to give extentions on papers and can be slow to return them to you. Lectures are interesting and info is easily retainable if you pay attention.

the class itself is a subj i dont care for much but derek is pretty fun and makes the class enjoyable. plus, hes pretty hot... lol, if u need to take anthro, take him.

There's a reason everyone loves Derek. He's hot!!! plus, he's a great prof. His classes are fun and interesting. Be ready to work hard, but it's worth it. I would totally do him. cough, i mean, take his classes...

Yeah his class is great. He's also really hot, so if you get bored you have some good eye candy in front of you for the duration of the class. The readings are boring but whatever.

Yeah his class is cool but anthro 2 is much better. He is kinda slow on returning stuff but he redeems himself with his hotness. Just take his class to stare at his arms and his tats. Theyre nice. He needs to wear a tank top. Derek you are hot and your class is great.

Honestly the best teacher I've ever had. Engaging lecturer, adds the right amount of wit to keep things fun. Brilliant man. Generous with his time. Never once felt like I was putting him out when I asked questions. Very clear, makes even the hardest concepts accessible. Just be prepared to read and work, this class is NOT an easy A.

a great teacher. he makes classes interesting and fun. he encourages everyone to ask questions in class. the homework he gives is easy but maybe a bit tedious. the stuff on the tests is what he discusses and from the readings. and let me warn you, there is alot of readings. but if you take notes and read you should be fine

Mr. Derek is just hot and adorable! Everyone loves him and he is so nice to everyone. Test is a little tricky but you just have to read. The class is a inspiring one, and I think everyone should take his class. Did I mention hez hot and adorable?!

His class made me fall in love with anthropology. His extra credits made life in that class a lot easier. Also, I think it's sad that students see him as a piece of hot meat, not that it's a bad thing, but come on people!

the most attractive man(personality wise)on earth.his tests are hard so, develop your own method of remembering facts, dates and places. he's funny, smart and you'll fall in love with this man. seriouly, he's lovable.

good professor....

Boring class, monotonous and robotic teacher, uninspiring, super easy class. If you want to fall asleep and get an A this is the class.

great professor. The subject is hard, need to pay class attention to his lecture. He is very helpful and try to help everybody pass his class. The best in PCC

Really nice man, I am thankful to have gotten a C. I was always confused because I dont like the topic but he still helped me pass. Just show up to class, do extra credit, do your best on the two assignments, do your best on the tests and you will at minimum pass.

Best Class at PCC: Anthropology of Religion and Witchcraft w/ Derek. Probably the most fun and interesting class I've ever taken. Theres a decent amount of work, and the material can be hard to grasp if you're not into it, but its worth it. You'll come out of this class with a different [better] view on everything.

This guy really is a good teacher. Very clear, offers about 30 pts of extra credit (out of 1000 point scale), and is really funny. Kinda looks like Frankenstein. HIGHLY recommended!

Overall, this class was a blast. I'm not really into studying animals, but Milne made learning about them hilarious and informative at the same time. His general sarcasm is LOL funny. Tests are tough. READ and you'll do fine! Of course, half the time I stared at this gorgeous Norwegian metalhead, so I may be biast about how wonderful the class was.

Excellent, funny, teacher -- cute and he has a myspace if you look for it. He'll add you.

He's a cool guy, freindly, and makes the class worthwhile. Check his myspace out, he'll add ya. leave funny monkey pictures. That's also fun. Recommend

Oh the hotness that is Derek Milne! One of my two or three favorite professors at PCC, with the most beautiful tatts and the most engaging manner of teaching. He's easy if you are into the subject and willing to put in the effort; looking at him sure is easy!

I do agree with most of you when I say that he is definetly one of the best looking teachers I ever had. :) He is really funny, but the class was a bit challenging. Make sure you do all the extra credit because it helps out in the end.

you need to do all your reading. every thurs you have a quiz on the reading. you'll be writing 4 essay. the class is interesting and derek is a very funny and interest individual. he'll answer any question you have and he's helpful.

alot of reading and 4 writing assignment. you'll be learning about other people religion, history and the purpose of religion. every thursday you'll be given a quiz on the reading. there are extra credit opportunies but only a little. just do really well on the quizzes and do all the require writing assignments. derek is awesome, i love this man.

I had taken him in the fall and had to withdraw. What I found different and a lot more helpful is that is lectures are now PowerPoint which helps. I found him to be helpful and understanding even though he come across as though he is not. He is just like a big teddy bear.

I've taken two of his classes, and have loved them both. I love his dry sense of humor (you're not sure if he's joking or being serious). I love how organized, creative and insightful he is. He has amazing spirit, a compassionate heart. Helps you see other walks of life with more understanding. Hard to concentrate when he wears a button-down shirt!

I tool his class in the fall, and he is a funny man, who cares a lot about his students, and is always willing to listen if you have questions. There's a lot of notes, so make sure you get those down, because they will be crucial for tests!!

Mr. Milne is an amazing teacher, his class is not hard, is alot of, fun and has interesting lectures. if you take any of Mr. Milne classes you will not regret it.

Consider yourself fortunate if you ever get to take a class with this man. Yes, his tests are a bit difficult but this is COLLEGE! Put in the effort and you should do well in the class. He gives you study guides, access to his powerpoints online and extra credit. What more do you need? He is incredibly brilliant, helpful, hilarious and interesting

I love Derek! This is the second class I take from him and I can't wait to take another. I love the way he teaches. It's fun and interesting..And really inspiring too.

I took Derek's class and found it to be very informative. Derek is an awsome instructor. He's witty and applies his own life experiences to the lectures. You must read the books in order to keep up with the class. He is very helpful whenever needed. I look forward to taking anothr class with him

Derek is wonderful! I 100% loved his class. Amazing professor, extremely funny, extremely intelligent, very, very helpful, and totally caring. Great guy, great class. Test can be a bit tricky. Very fair grader - do the work, read, pay attention in class and you'll do fine. Consider yourself lucky to take a class with him!

Very funny prof who has more than a passing resemblence to Anthony Bourdain, kind of sounds like him too, but with less profanity ...sort of. Class is informative, interesting and honestly pretty easy. Some work is required, but it's not exactly difficult. The research assignments might be time consuming, but not hard.

Prof. Milne is a very knowledgeable man. He knows his stuff and entertains you with his seemingly infinite exotic personal experiences. He can be quite loud and sarcastic. Basically, if you turn in all your work in time and actually read your readings, then you'll do fine in his class.

Anthr 1 was the most dry and by the books, mutiple choice. Anthr 2 was fun and had more writing. Anthr 4 was more fun and had plenty to write writing. Overall, he has great passion for his craft, which would make him a great professor. Word is that he is going to be teaching more classes of different subjects next year.

love him... uttmost helpful and caring.... but you MUST WORK for a good grade. All in all, he is the best thing that happend to me during my college career...OH AND HE IS HOT!!!!

i worker very hard for my b but the guy is good no matter what they say. be ready to work.

great class.

He is awesome. He's got a cool attitude, and he makes you work youre lil' asses off! Lots of work, but he is cool!

Professor Milne is excellent at what he does, he truly knows how to teach. He presents the material in an interesting and entertaining manner that causes the students to want to learn. His enthusiasm about the subjects he teaches in infectious. I would definitely suggest taking any of his classes.

What I like about Derek's class is that everything is designed the way that helps students to succeed in the class. Assignments aren't that hard and to do well on quizzes you have to read textbook chapters, annual editions plus review study questions and powerpoint presentations that are posted online.

Derek is a great professor & hot!! The tests r really really hard. It is multiple choice but hard as hell, half the class failed the tests. If u cant dedicate all ur time don't bother takin the class. A lot of reading is neccessary to pass his class. He offers extra credit & pts for tutoring hrs. Take this class if u don't have a full schedule.

This is a very interesting, but very hard and time consuming class. A lot of homework questions and reading, tests every week. But the assignments are fairly easy and he does offer extra credit. He's a really nice guy!

Derek is a real nice dude! For sure you gotta do a grip of work in his class though, but he has awesome personality, and he is really helpful. Really respectful dude too, and he's understanding i.m.o PeaCe Derek!

Awesome guy. Coolest professor ive had yet. However, class is not easy..but also not THAT hard. LOTS of homework and studying...much more than i expected from a 3 credit class. Dont take this class just as a bs 3 credit class because it wont be worth it...take it because you really wanna learn anthropology ...because you will ALOT.

This was an awesome class. Professor Milne has a great sense of humor and treats his students like adults.The class is not for slackers,if you want to use your brain, and have interesting discussions this is for you.There are quizzes each week,no midterm but one paper,a voodoo doll project and a final. Porfessor Milne is a very fair grader,just try

I wanted to add one more piece of constructive criticism. The class was awesome, entertaining and challenging, but I feel he tries to cram too much information into his PowerPoint presentations. I don't remember too many of the facts we learned about religion, and I think he could give us a more holistic perspective on religion to take with us.

derek is real cool. he has a great discussion for the power point lectures but what he talks about is not on the qzs. there is extra credit and he is a really nice guy but will b studying your ass off. hes hot, friendly and a great teacher. if u ever want to learn anthro, hes the best professor you could ever ask for.

Derek is one of the most interesting and engaging professers at PCC. His subject matter is really well chosen. He completely goes over all of the assigned readings in class.

The divine Derek! Handsome and warm and interesting, a must-take. If you pay attention, he's not all difficult. He really made me consider anthropology as a major.

totally hot teacher!!! he is amazing in the way he teaches and in his understanding of his students. A+++++

all that is good and right in the world is summed up in the divine Derek Milne

clear

Great Teacher. He covers 70% of whats on the test in class. Its not boring either. He uses powerpoints to teach, which you can download and use to study for the test. You also get o watch some sort of an educational movie every 5 or 6 classes, which is nice. Highly recommended.

I LOVED THIS CLASS!!!!! Derek helps you understand different religions, customs, beliefs, and other rituals from all around the World, and it's very, very interesting. But, I'm going to be honest: Derek talks about voodoo dolls, black magic, and curses, so if that freaks you out or scares you, then don't take the class- it's for open minds only!

He's a funny guy with dry wit and sarcasm. Cynical almost to a fault. Class discussions are interesting, tests require a considerable amount of studying mostly because of their weight in the class. Lots of reading (2 textbooks) but plenty of study material to help. Not a class to snooze in.

Unfortunately we're at community college were they allow too many worthless human beings to attend class. However, if you have an interest in learning from someone who can direct you to alot relevant information, Derek is very useful. If you want to take Anthropology to fullfil a GE requirement and are below average intel., Find someone else!

I love Derek! This class was way cooler than I ever expected it to be. I'm Catholic and Derek made fun of me whenever he got the chance to, but it was all in good fun. I admit, we talked about scary stuff like Witch Doctors and other forms of ethno-medicine, but it helped me open my eyes to new forms of healing that still exists within the World.

Best class ever. Never a dull moment. He has a very good sense of humor. The tests are challenging, but he posts study guides, so just study and you can get a good grade.

Really awesome prof (love his tattoos)! Very interesting, really funny, and I learned alot. Tests are pretty hard so study! Take notes or just download the power points to study off of. Go to class!! And make sure u are there on days when he shows videos bc they are usually on the tests.

Wonderful, knowledgeable, fun, and cute teacher!! Very interesting class. Gives average amount of reading with a question guide, those same questions appear on the quizzes. Not too difficult. He tells great stories and most of the class time is devoted to powerpoint lecture slides. :-) Take good notes and make sure to read ALL assignments.

He is so entertaining and easy on the eyes. He makes something so boring extremly interesting and there were only a few assignments

Wonderful teacher. I failed his class, but he is my favorite teacher yet. His stories are funny, his teaching is great, his tests are a bit difficult, so you need to really study. I plan to take his class again.

Oh my gosh, Derek is the best teacher EVER. Take him, it will be the best decision you ever made. He is amazing. His class is tough, but you will learn a lot and have a great time. He's also easy on the eyes ;)

very hard class, but very nice guy. makes the subject interesting and cares about his students opinions

Derek is one of the most interesting professor in PCC. you'll never bored at his class, but the test is not easy. it need you to know everything from both class lecture and books.

most excellent.

Derek is an awesome dude. He's a lot of fun and is probably one of the most intelligent people I've ever met. However, I do not recommend asking Derek for any favors outside of class, such as revising personal statements, or writing letters of recommendation for you because lets face it: he's a busy busy bee. omg, he's so like, omg, hot too !

This rating is for 4.0 students. Derek is a great guy, I got A's in all his classes but I never get anything other than that in any of my classes. I was frustrated with his testing however. They are written poorly, they test on random details that pertain in no way to the content of what was read. So study those things and you'll do fine. ;P

By far one of the best professors I have had at PCC. He is completely awesome in the way he teaches and he will definitely keep you interested in anthro 1 & 2. He is very understanding and he's a fair grader. Even though his tests for anthro 1 are a bit difficult, make sure you study from his lectures & the assigned books.

Your view of everything (life, culture, religion, etc.) will expand after his class. Don't miss discussion because it's the best part of his class. Plus he's funny, honest, brilliant, and he's not stuck up about how good his comments on here. I first thought his looks were overrated.. but not anymore :] Take his class seriously, it'll be worth it.

Milne made the class fun, interesting. He is nice and helpful, but very busy. Do not expect much help outside of class. His tests and quizzes are difficult, so study hard. Sometimes, he questioned us on random facts from reading, rather than important ideas. Be sure to do the reading and memorize the vocabulary italicized in the lecture slides.

Fantastic teacher. Couldn't say enough nice things about him. He is a witty lecturer, keeps the material interesting and extremely helpful. However, the class is not an easy A, but if you do the reading and follow the study guides, you will do fine.

If you're smart (wit helps), driven, looking for a professor that will challenge you; enroll. There's a good deal of reading from both the textbook and articles;each of which show up on the quizzes and exams(so no slacking). There are some obscure questions asked to keep u on ur toes, so pay attention to the details. I'll be takin his Anth4 class

Guys make sure you attend the class either you like it or not. Most of the quizzes are from the powerpoints. He is sweet, nice and funny. You have to study! Extra cedit opportunity. So stop complaining about Derek!

I think this is the first time I have rated a professor...hmmm! Hot! Does that mean extra credit for class? Either way, considering that prior to entering class I had a zero interest in anthropology, I will definitely take the other courses if Derek is teaching them. I love his class, teaching style and passion he demonstrates for the subject.

Absolutely great professor!! Take his class and you'll love anthr!!

Very knowledgeable teacher, a little scattered though, doesnt follow syllabus-doesnt get thru all the material-but great guy great attitude-

He is a great professor honestly! His tests maybe hard, but if you do well on the assignments and the extra creadits you will get a good grade! when I take his class I have no interested in anthro, but then I love it! he made it so interesting and very funny too! I recommended this prof for sure! he's a great professor no doubt about it! =)

Milne is a very funny and knowledgeable teacher. His class is interesting but it is very heavy with information. His tests (all 100% multiple choice) are very hard and you must do well on the assignments and extra credit to get an A or B. I struggled to get a B an I am a 4.0 student. Overall very informative class but challenging. He is so funny.

DO NOT SLACK!!! Professor Milne is one of the coolest, funniest, nicest professors at PCC. But dont underestimate him, the quizes are challenging and his exams will not be passed without studying the study guide VERY well. If you take any of his classes just study study study and keep a good relationship with him, he likes to know his students.

Professor Milne is high knowledgeable on anthropology. He knows exactly what he is talking about, and he spreads his knowledge to his students. Lectures and readings are essential to quizzes, midterm, and final. As long as you do the readings and pay attention, you WILL pass the class. I got an A by doing those things.

The best professor teaching at PCC. He's very nice but his exams are hard so study study study! His slides are very helpful so print those and study them often and do any extra credit he offers, it really helps! =]

Best teacher I've ever had at PCC. Hands down. I'm a philo major and this class helped me look at the world in a whole new light. Milne is the best. I absolutely adored going to class.

Milne is pretty awesome. His class was very interesting. You MUST study for the midterm & final, they are pretty hard. He gives a study guide for both and does follow them.

He's the best professor at PCC!!! so smart and very helpful!! hard work and lots of study is a must if you want to do well in his class!!! and Prof. Milne is so nice and HOT!! :)

BEST TEACHER! lol but man is he hard, well it's worth it guys, he is so funny and leave you laughing through out the whole class. i highly recommend him.

Great teacher passionate about his subject. Not an easy class but you learn a lot.

Prof. Milne is absolutely wonderful. very intelligent and helpful. lectures are fun. i learned a lot from his class. study hard for exams, do the study questions!

Amazing. That is all. Take his class!

This is my second time taking Milne, and I wish I could take him again! Anthro 1 is way different from Anthro 2. There are only 3 exams and 2 projects (one paper, one research assignment). But, he does offer extra credit in Anthro 2. It is a difficult class and it's important to not get behind. But, Milne makes every single minute worth it. Flawles

Milne is an awesome teacher. He's funny and class is always interesting. You DEFINITELY need to study and do ALL of the assigned reading, but that's what college is about. Your grade depends on 5 quizzes, 2 exams, and 2 take home essays and one Kinship assignment. Pretty easy to get an A if you're a good student.

Derek is the best!!! His class requres a lot of studying to do well, but at the end, it all worths awhile! I learned so much from his class and he is sooo helpful and funny! I got a A for my hard work and you can do it too!

The material is very interesting but the tests are a pain! Tests are based on lecture, textbook and articles. Gives one 6 page research paper and another primate assignment. Offers extra credit which is good. He's very funny and his lectures are very clear, attendance is definitely mandatory.

Super funny, super smart and interesting. Has really great stories and the reading is interesting. Tests are a pain and the class is def not an easy A. I didn't go much, barely read, and did not pass. Got what I deserved. So be serious about this class if you want to do well.

He's a great professor. Some people said his tests are hard but really, I had no idea what they were talking about. Seriously even his quizzes were all right. He's also a very generous grader and very funny and I will very much miss his class. Also, you just have to keep in mind that you should keep up with his reading assignments and have good not

Professor Milne, class is very intresting, he's Awesome good personality wont make you fall asleep. Keep in mind test are Hard you must study. He does give extra credit trips, I suggest attending them. Overall great professor helpful and intellegent...Oh! and his is very Hot, I'm glad I took him for ANTHR 1...:)

He's really funny and will keep you awake!

Took this class last spring and I loved it! could've gotten a better grade but oh well.his tests are based on his lectures, notes, and articles..he is a nice guy and gives out many extra credit! go on the field trips and study hard..this class is just memorizing so don't worry too much..his lectures are crucial so pay attention!

The guy is absolutely HILARIOUS. He's always joking but he's got this dry, sarcastic, bitter sense of humor. I love it. The class loved it. His tests are kinda hard if you study the night before like i did but i still passed them. He also gives out a ton of extra credit assignments and gives us extra points for no reason. Awesome professor. Takehim

Professor Milne is not only insanely hot & hilarious, but he's quite possibly one of the most brilliant professors I've ever had. He definitely keeps you interested during his lectures. His class is a bit hard, but if you study adequately and take good notes, it shouldn't be too difficult to do well.

Derek Milne is a fantastic teacher. He is fun to listen to and he is very passionate about what he is teaching. There is no nightly homework, only reading from the book and a few projects. Very worthwhile teacher, you won't want to miss his class.

Milne is an awesome teacher. He is super funny and his lectures are crystal clear (everything he says is in his powerpoint presentations). However, you will soon realize showing up to class is not necessary if you can make a friend. His exams are very hard. I got a C.

Dr. Milne is the best teacher I've had at PCC! I wish he taught everything! He is easy to follow. Anthr 5 wasn't the easiest class I've ever taken, but it wasn't the hardest either. He mostly uses powerpoints supplemental to his lectures, both are usually interesting.

Hilarious teacher and very easy to follow. Lots of extra credit to make up for the difficulty of the class.

3 words: BEST. TEACHER. EVER. Love everything about him, he makes class so incredibly fun, he is so hilarious! He has very interesting stories and makes the time pass quickly. Be prepared for difficult tests, but study hard and you'll definitely pass. Take him, you will not be sorry!

Kind, hot, easy (but you still learn so much.) Derek is the best!

This guy is a great teacher and really knows his stuff.If your not fresh out of high school, the material may be a lil hard. The reading is interesting and there are field trips for extra credit. It's always interesting in his class.He is always willing to answer question's and he has a great sense of humor! I say take him over anyone else!

Mr. (now Dr.!) Milne is awesome. He tells a lot of interesting, personal stories about his time with the Navajo. He really loves class discussions. He has an awesome tattoo on his arm! The books he chose were interesting and clear. The assignments were fun. His tests, however, were a little too detailed and pretty hard to study for. Over all:great.

For his history class he didn't give an overload of assignments, but I have to say there was a lot of reading. He gives plenty of extra credits. He's great, humorous, keeps topics interesting, energetic, and not too bad on the eyes though I didn't give him the red chili. I'm definitely taking him again (:

Professor Milne is a hard professor, but a nice professor. He gives out a lot of extra credit to help your grade. His overall class have two test and two assignment.

love him. hes funny and interesting. but his tests aer ridiculous. veryyyy tricky. but over all cool class to take especially if you dont find science to be interesting at all. he makes the pain of science a little less boring. recommend him if you can get past tricky questions lol

Going into the class I thought it was all about monkeys and science, but I came out of there educated and had a fun time with his lectures. It helps that he is a funny guy. Definitely recommend if you like science and biology. Not a lot of hw, but lots of reading for his tests.

I had him for humanities 1. This class is NOT an easy A. You will have to work your ass of for it, but he will help you as long as you make an honest effort. Great teacher, and open mind, but do not take this class unless you are prepared to work hard.

Ok, lets be honest. This class is NOT easy. He gives out extra credit, which i recommend doing because it definitely helps. Remember to go over the study guides before the test and to make sure to learn the Native American, because they WILL be on the test. He is funny as hell and even though i don't like the subject , he makes the class fun.

Dr. Milne is one of the best professors at PCC, because of his class i'm thinking about changing majors that is how powerful his class is. BUT you REALLY need to study and read a lot this is NOT an easy class if you are looking for an easy grade then do not take him, if you are willing to take the challenge take him is worth it

One of the best professors on campus. He really raises the bar. He expects from his students no less than what he expects from himself. He's also very helpful. Take his class, you will take away with you something invaluable.

Professor Milne is AWESOME! He's very helpful and extremely hilarious. Take his class, you'll learn a lot if you pay attention. Exams are pretty tough, but it's not hard to pass the class in general.

he makes me want to be a better person he inspires me to be more than i am

Derek Milne is the BEST teacher I have ever had at PCC. I took his class over the summer and I have never been so happy to be spending my vacation sitting in a classroom. He is HILARIOUS, beyond entertaining, and SO smart. It totally helps that he is hot. I will recommend him to absolutely everyone I know. <3

Just two words: THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!'

Out of any of the other professors I have taken at PCC, he was the best. Good lectures, interesting course contant. But be prepared t read,...alot. Funny, insightful, and organized. He made his class something I looked forward to.

His class is challenging. Study every single detail for the tests. do EVERY extra credit opportunity and youll be fine. He is an amazing professor and he is funny, makes the class go by fast

Honestly, he's the funniest professor hands down BUT he's also the hardest. He warned us on the first day of class that it wasn't going to be easy...he wasn't bluffing, although he made me laugh during class, seeing my grades for the exams made me cry. Do NOT take the class if you want an A.

He is an amazing prof! Dr. Milne is hilarious, thorough and helpful! He is a sweetheart unless you give him a reason not to be. Even though he's a nice guy, do NOT be fooled his tests are hard and you will FAIL them if you do not study. Are you planning on slacking? GET OUT OF SCHOOL Want to work have fun and learn? TAKE MILNE!

...He talks a lot about his experiences in the field, which makes the class interesting.You do have 2 group presentations.Save yourself, pick an early date for the first one,so you won't get overwhelmed by doing 2 in a row.The novel is boring at first but gets better.Presentation takes time ,very fair grading PRACTICE.Take him But be ready to study

Dr. Milne is one of the best professors at PCC and one of my favorite human beings to be around. His class is entertaining, enlightening and absolutely worth taking. It's best to bring a tape recorder to class because he speaks very quickly and the powerpoints do not describe concepts in depth. The articles are very thick and often difficult. Study

One of the best professors I've ever had. Very engaging and entertaining. He could do stand-up comedy if he wanted to, (and he's very handsome too)Don't be fooled though, the curriculum is very challenging. There's a tremendous amount of information to absorb in this class. Just remember to follow the syllabus and read the textbook after class.

He's such a great lecturer and person that now, after have been graduated 3 years later, I want to find out when his classes are and just sit in and listen to him speak. He is truly a gem that PCC can't afford to lose!

Absolutely loved taking his class. Tbh I found the subject itself (cultural anthro) rather uninteresting, but Dr. Milne made the class so enjoyable that I didn't mind at all. I looked forward to hearing his hilarious anecdotes in class. He's always there for students, he runs the Honors Program AMAZINGLY, and I really hope to take his class again.

If you're taking the class to learn, Milne is the teacher for you. If you're just there for the grade, you should consider looking elsewhere.

One of PCC's most gifted and intellectual professor, Dr. Milne. No other professor can top his prestige. Not only he is admired and inspirational to his students but to the Honors Program as well. As a UCLA lecturer, Dr. Milne successfully taught and prepared his students at a university level. If you want to succeed in university, take Milne.

Milne, though an incredible and hilarious professor, doesn't teach easy classes. He knows how hard his classes are and often brings it up in a joking fashion, but don't think for one second he's kidding; if you don't study you will fail. Overall, he's interesting, funny and helpful, but be aware that he teaches at a university level.

If you can get a high score on all the work, do all the extra credit options, be punctual, and anything else worth effort, it still won't matter because he continuously mentions how ridiculous his exams are. The exams are almost meant to make you stumble, and if so, then what is the point of all those extra opportunities for improvement? Stupid.

Let me be clear: this is not an easy class. We ended up doing a 3000 word research paper plus our final. There's a writing assignment every week following 20-100 pg reading. It's a lot of work but ultimately I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to be in Dr Milne's class. His assistant Michael is also great. I HIGHLY recommend.

Enthusiastic & sarcastic, disorganized & thorough, he's brilliant and a must-take. It's difficult, but not absurdly so. Don't slack too much, review every week (no homework beyond a few assignments) and have study groups and you'll be fine with a B or an A. He expects excellence but is (mostly) understanding and helpful

I absolutely loved this class, but you have to work for your A. I took it as honors and there was a lot of reading plus a ten page research paper. Don't underestimate his tests. Read and prepare for every study question in detail. He is hilarious and a great prof, but can be confusing and unorganized. Put in the work, you will get at least a B.

Best professor at PCC. Derek is articulate and passionate, he could be teaching at a variety of other places. Derek instilled in me an incredible passion for this work, and I switched majors and I'm now working on my PHD because of it. His classes (I took 2) are hard, but they're excellent vectors of knowledge. Take every class w/ him that you can!

His tests are definitely tough, there is a lot of memorization, but he is always available and gives a substantial amount of extra credit - do it all! No homework other than reading and test review questions.. Which neither are graded so it's up to you.. But important for the tests.

Derek might is one of the greatest professors I had the pleasure of meeting at PCC. His class is pretty straightforward, come to lecture, take notes, and do the reading. Yes, his tests are a bit challenging but if you prepare, you'll be fine. Very generous extra credit giver as well! Would recommend his class to any serious student.

Professor Milne is an excellent teacher. His class is not easy but he really knows how to make students want to learn. His lectures were actually pretty fun and humorous. Make sure to read the books. The projects are pretty straightforward. Take advantage of the extra credit. It's pretty generous and helped me to avoid a C.

Fantastic professor, completely reconstructed the framework in which I see the world. Yeah, you have to read, it's college. He treats you like a competent peer, and while some can't handle that, it creates a stimulating environment to learn. Would be really nice if he was a bit more organized but that's trademark Milne. If you want to learn, take.

most difficult class i've taken in my college career,but WORTH IT! 3 tests, research paper, but no HW. Expect to be stressed if you're not a science person. His tests are challenging, so study hard and in advance. In spite of all said, i loved this course! Milne is a great lecturer ,the readings, and material were interesting as well! Def take

FUNNIEST PROF EVER. He gives out many extra cred opportunities .. but don't be fooled. His class is tough solely because there is SO much reading and his tests are tough. You have to be so confident with the material that you could go up and teach it. Definitely makes you learn and is ALWAYS WILLING TO HELP. One of the most dedicated profs eva.

He is a really amazing teacher. He knows how to teach anthropology in an interesting way. Be ready to read, he gives so many articles that are 20-40 pages long. If you are a dedicated student you will pass, his test are about the class so if you study you will pass.

I feel lucky that Milne teaches at PCC bc he really is one of the smartest, interesting, definitely funniest profs I ever had. His tests are hard, supplanted by long academic articles but it's worth it for the amazing lectures. Go to his office hours if you're struggling. Fun, weird projs like making a voodoo doll & interviewing a fortune teller.

I took the honors version of anth 1 and let me tell you, it was challenging. Mostly because he cancelled class a few times and never caught up to the syllabus. Yes, the tests were hard. Yes, there is a LOT of reading. But if you fill out the study guides, write notes on lecture, and pray, you will get an A. He gives big extra credit opportunities!

Another class, another Derek Milne review. If you feel like actually learning something at college, take the class. Beware, this entails, gasp, reading and doing work. One of PCC's finest.

Smart, funny, inspiring. Take his classes.

Dr. Milne is a great lecturer, and truly cares about his students. That being said, his exams are hard as hell. Study your ass off, read every inch of the assigned readings and read them again. He likes specification in written responses on exams. This class was extremely enjoyable, but it was NOT easy at all.

Dr. Milne is a great guy and really knows his stuff. He is funny, and uses good material. I loved hearing about his work with the Navajo. He gives out interesting and fun extra credit and good movies. I'm a little disappointed with how the class went. The start was slow and with little homework, then suddenly picked up cause we were behind.

Dr. Milne is one of the best teachers here. His lectures are engaging and he challenges the class to look at the world in a different way. Some say his exams are too hard, but the truth is he is not compared to a 4-year school. His classes are a good gauge of how life will be after transfer. Also, you won't meet a nicer teacher. He really cares.

Good: Great personality, interesting lectures, willing to answer lots of questions, cares about students. You'll definitely learn something. Bad: uses a regular book instead of a textbook, which is terrible for a subject like phys anthro. often behind. a little ambiguous on what's in a test. Misc: Tests are hard, you get a B with decent effort

Great professor, assigns readings that challenge you in a good way, but my only complaint is that he gives few quizzes and assignments at the beginning of the semester, then has to hurry to give them after the midterm. And it would have been nice if he had given us at least a months notice of the projects that were due in the last weeks.

Lots of reading and potentially a lot of work, but I think about and remember ideas and concepts from his class more than probably any other

A cool dude and funny at times but his courses are brutal. Tests are not indicative of your comprehension of the subject matter but how much of the text, lecture, and articles you are able to memorize. Look for obscure facts mentioned once in class to be added to quizzes. Prepare to spend every free moment of your life reading and memorizing.

Caring professor, very understanding, extremely smart, and funny. His course requires a lot of reading and the quizzes and tests are no joke. The reading will be hard so take notes and be prepared. You need to be on your game but you will learn a lot and be exposed to a lot of knowledge with him.

Very intelligent individual. He's hilarious during lectures, but also carries immense knowledge in his field and subject. Highly recommend to take his anthro and linguistic courses. His knowledge on language is intriguing. Also, he assigns the best readings and articles.

Truly inspiring and intelligent teacher that makes learning fun. Loves class discussions. However it's a LOT of work. I notice a lot of the PhD profs are so knowledgeable that they have a hard time realizing their students don't know certain things already. But if you prepare to work hard, you'll realize how fascinating all of the content is.

A truly admirable guy. Lectures are actually fun to attend so go! As intimidatingly intelligent as he is, he really takes the time to prepare students for tests and make the material digestible.

He's a great speaker and his lectures are interesting but PCC's linguistic anthro class did not have any prerequisites and I feel I absolutely should not have been allowed in the class without having taken both linguistics 001 and anthro 001 first. I blame whoever made those courses a recommendation rather than a requirement for my failure.

Imagine Elton John but with the voice of James Earl Jones, but with an extra dollop of snark. Exceptionally captivating and inspiring teacher that loves his job, and is fair with everything. Exams were challenging, to be expected of Honors. Still absolutely within reason. LOTS of reading assignments. If you put in the work you'll do great.

Super nice and caring really cares about his students. He gives many extra credit opportunities and curves. Quizzes and tests are kinda hard if you study the material you should be good

He was very enjoyable &amp; funny, he is smart for sure but honestly, for a 3 unit class it was way too much. It was too hard. There were too many readings, the readings were super long and he rarely posted study questions for the quizzes. His assignments were hard and he wasn't very clear when he assigned them. Didn't really learn much but it was fun

Best professor I have had at PCC! I wish I could take more classes with him. Yes, his tests are not easy(I am sorry but it is a college, you have to study) but you will learn lots of things. He has great personality, keen heart, and perfect sense of humor! His lectures are amazing and I enjoyed every single class!

Probably my favorite professor I have had so far. He is funny and shows he cares. His lectures are fun and helpful. His class was hard though, so study and use the questions.

One of the more difficult college courses i've ever taken, but Dr. Milne made it rather enjoyable regardless. I took detailed notes on every lecture and every movie, and had to study almost everyday of the semester. His sense of a humor made me laugh in an authentic way, and his insight in the subject was inspiring.

The most interesting prof ive ever met but this class is tough. Many long and tough academic articles that will be used as quiz materials, quizzes are okay as long as you read the articles, tests are tough, in it he would usually refer to his PPTs so take notes. I still got an A but this class really exhausted me. If you hate readings, just dont.

Great Professor and class. You have to work for a good grade and easy quizzes every week to keep you on your toes. Study and you will do good.

We had little to no homework, but a 10-15 question test every week. I failed the first 5 tests until I figured it out, you really just need to do the study q's. I suggest typing them out and studying that. If you don't do the study q's you probably won't know what in the chapter the test will be on. He's pretty great. Reminds me of Anderson Cooper.

Gives very funny lectures with great insight. Little homework other than keeping up with the readings.

I love this class. He's really funny and there's almost no homework but if you're not a quiz/test person then don't take the class. Pay attention to the lectures and use the study guides on Canvas. They hella help.

Dr. Milne is my favorite! Very casual in his lectures that make the subject a lot less intimidating and interesting. The subject always feels relevant. His quizzes are easy but do require your effort. Hilarious guy with great insight and experience in his field of work. Wish he was my teacher for all subjects!

Honestly, his teaching style is awesome. He dumbs things down so anthropology isn't boring like I thought it would be. He's very lenient about how YOU handle your work and gives you more than enough opportunities to pass the class. Quizzes every week and provides study guides. Considerate to feedback. Very compassionate and wonderful professor.

Professor Milne the best! He actually likes his students and he wants you to succeed. He made a subject I initially thaught was boring be really interesting and I learned a lot. In my opinion, he is the best professor at PCC.

He is really nice and hilarious! Literally the best professor ive ever taken lol. He gives a lot of extra credit. You need to read to prepare the quiz but all the questions are almost included in the study questions. Would definitely take him again if i were still in PCC. I would give him like 100 stars if i could lol.

One of the most precious professors Ive ever had in my 4.5 years at PCC. A hard working man who cares about his students. Hilarious and extremely knowledgeable in his field of study. He does more than he needs to, and although his tests are challenging, he appreciates feedback and makes you work for it. Youre awesome Derek!!!

I'm actually really sad that I'm not majoring in Anthropology because of Derek. He has been by far one of the best professors I have ever had. He genuinely cares about his students and really tries his best to connect with everyone. He's also absolutely hilarious; his stories were some of the best parts of class. Thank you, Derek!!

This professor really cares about his students and works hard to make extra credit available, so students who work hard but are struggling with the course content can still pass. His class is difficult, and you will need to study for it, but he also intentionally tried to make the class easier and curved all the major exams. Amazing lectures. Funny

Chill and awesome. Gives detailed lectures and memorable moments. Enjoyable to listen to. Thank you Derek, very cool.

Dr. Milne is one of the best professors on campus. He is a true gem. He has great in depth lectures. It can be a bit intense at times, but no worries because his door is ALWAYS open to help out. He really cares about all of us even though he &quot;doesn't trust us&quot; (you'll get it if you take his class) and he makes sure everyone passes.

Dr. Milne is a highly respectable professor who despite his odd sense of humor, is an extremely caring professor who does his best to make sure that students succeeded in class. While the quizzes and exams are quite a heavy load to some, he provides a study guide so use that to do the best in class. Recommended General Ed course for sure.

Not an Anthro major, took this course as a GE. I barely scraped by with an A and put in very little time into the course. Can't say I learned much but that was my own doing, overall not that bad and I'd take again.

Not a hard grader on essay and assignments but exam required times to prepare. The exam is basically based on the quizzes and lectures. I take the class for GE but didnt expect the class need so many times to study. Long readings are assigned every week with small quizzes. Professor is great but the class is definitely not a easy A class.

I really enjoyed taking this class. Milne made the content interesting and easy (ish) to understand. It's not an easy A, but if you do the reading and pay attention during lectures you'll pass. He also offers extra credit and curves the exams. He's hilarious and genuinely cares about his students. 3 exams, 8-9 quizzes, and group (or indv) final.

Took his class this past Summer so it was a little more fast paced. The workload was normal, just pay attention to his (awesome) lectures &amp; follow the readings/films he asks you to watch, because questions on the quizzes and tests mostly come from there. As for the professor himself, super funny and really cares about his students. 10/10

Dr. Milne is by far the best professor I have ever had. He is the reason for me pursuing a major in Anthropology. His lectures are gripping and fun to listen to. I never had a day where I wasn't excited for his class. When it comes to quizzes, they are based of the readings he assigns from the textbook and the powerpoints in class. You'll love him!

So awesome. So kind. So passionate. This guy is so cool. The class discussions are fierce, controversial and inspiring. Take the honors class. You will be challenged by not only Milne but the students too. So great and feels like a real true university experience, unlike most other classes i have taken at PCC.

Loved his readings, loved his lectures, loved his essays. Extremely interesting class. Incredibly nice professor. However, he didn't bother grading any of our assignments, so I had no idea how to improve for my next essays :( that really sucked (stuff from March STILL hasn't been graded and it's June 16...). anyway, this class was a gem overall.

I took a summer class which had the most hw I had ever had. I did well by devoting A LOT of time to this class. He will abide by the hours that the class requires. He is passionate about the subject, and his personality shines through, tho I wish he graded quicker, and lessened the difficulty a bit. I came away genuinely interested in the subject.

one of the coolest prof I've had at PCC. He makes the content very fun and somewhat easier to digest. The course itself is heavy, a lot of memorization. If you pay attention, take good notes, and attend aclass you'll do fine. He's also really funny and easy-going.

If you are looking to take his 8-week class be aware he estimates each week to have 16-19 hours of work. Sometimes it is longer other times it is less, but regardless it is a lot. I found myself spending more time on this class than my 4 &amp; 5 credit classes. It is not a difficult class just a lot of work!

Professor Derek is exceptional . Religion, Magic, and Witchcraft (ANTH004) is a challenging class, but he makes it VERY enjoyable. Very experienced anthropologist. Great lectures. Very organized, gives clear instructions. Review key terms and study questions, follow instructions and you'll be ok. One of the best professors out there. So worth it!

Took Milne for witchcraft class (Fall '17) &amp; loved it! He is extremely understanding &amp; easy going if YOU put EFFORT into it. His lectures/stories are amazing &amp; full of knowledge. We used 1 text, a book about a voodoo priestess &amp; he assigned other articles. Just do the readings &amp; watch the films as well as pay attention to study Qs and you'll be ok.

If you treat ANTH001 as a lecture, youll get a lecture teacher out of it. If you put in the effort to work with him, youll get an excellent teacher out of it. Its clear that he loves what he teaches, and is willing to lend a hand when its needed. Its difficult given the lecture format, but Dr. Derek is great. Very LGBT friendly too!

LOoOoved Milne! Definitely makes u work hard lol, but the class is interesting and fun. I looked forward to the readings and lectures cause they were AWESOME! This class really made me think critically and changed how I saw the world. Material was 4-yr university level. He's also so approachable and nice. One of the coolest professors @PCC.

Professor Milne was a good teacher however you need to study for this class. If you do not study for this class you will not pass. I did not read the textbook so I didn't study I encourage you ONLY to take the class if you study

He's a really great professor and while hate writing his topics and lectures are actually interesting. He is a fair grader and caring person. Take him you won't regret it.

keeping up was pretty easy, reading is a lot. have weekly quizzes on the reading but are easy points. Theres weekly assignments like discussion posts or short essays which can be dreading to do but not so hard. just don't like how he doesn't grade anything until the end of the semester bc idk my grade:( But hes super easy to talk to and ask Qs to.

There is a lot of reading, and assignments. His turn around on grading assignments is very very slow. It was hard to keep track of your grade. However, this content heavy class in interesting and you really learn a lot. Overall, one of the few professor I enjoyed taking.

Professor Milne has so far been one of my favorite professors I've had so far. The readings are a lot, but his selections are fascinating if you have an interest in different cultures and how that relates to us/our/culture/the world today. He is funny, knowledgable, and teaches pedagogically instead of classic "lecturing".

If you haven't had him in your life, you're missing out. Could be your next potential bestie but sadly has favoritisms. I've never read this much reading in my entire life. Quizzes, discussions, group presentations, two big exams, and incredible stories from his experiences. Invited most of the reading's authors in class, how awesome is that?

Respectable person who will take feedback, and knows a lot about anthropology. Only real problems were accessibility outside of class (usually took multiple days to respond to messages) and grading. Midterm was not graded until over a month after we finished, and another 50 point assignment not graded until a month and a half after submitted

Prof Milne is one of the most caring and down-to-earth individuals at PCC. If you ever have a chance to take a class with him please do so you will not regret it! The class requires a lot of reading/writing so don't xpect it to be easy if you don't put in the effort. Study his mid/final exam study guides they are very similar to the given exams.

Recommend taking this class either by itself or with one other. I was taking three other classes plus this one and almost dropped because of the amount of homework, but I survived. Both the videos and chapter readings are valuable for the quizzes, midterm and final. He's very test heavy on the midterm and final.

Professor Milne is super nice and interesting as both a professor and a person. His class has a lot of material and is more like a 5 credit than the 3 it is listed as, so keep that in mind. The reading and assignments will keep you very busy as you study for weekly quizzes. If you need help though he is very nice, understanding, and available.

Prof Milne is a kind and supportive professor, but he does take a while to grade. Lectures can get repetitive but he occasionally invites some of the authors of the books to guest-speak, which brings about fun discussions. There are lots of readings to complete each week, so be sure to keep up since they will show up on the midterm and final!

There is a lot of reading, the assignments are time-consuming and the exams are not easy. This is not an easy class, but he actually teaches you something. He's passionate, caring, and clear regarding his requirements. You have to make an effort to do well in his class. The only thing I didn't like was the late grading. But overall I recommend him.

Not only is he very funny, but Professor Milne is also very enthusiastic in what he teaches. He has rich experience and skills in his field that he brings into class. One of the biggest take-aways from his class is that everything happens for a reason. Some find that there is too much to read, but it's truly worth it.

Easy class but lots of assignments. Just keep up with the work and you'll be fine. The tests are semi-difficult and long but you'll get an A/B on the exams if you complete the study guide.

Nice, caring, and willing to help you out. Utilize his office hrs! Lots of reading/writing + concepts at times can be difficult to grasp, but it's such interesting material! I was stressed in this class, but also learned so much and came out highly valuing it. Can be bit picky with grading so make sure to look at the rubric and you should be good.

One of the most caring professors ever. I had some personal problems that were affecting my grade, but I reached out and he was extremely willing to help. This is a pretty hard course, but he makes the material easier to digest with the assignments and lectures. There are a lot of quizzes, but only two tests. Take him, he is the best!

Professor Milne is a caring, knowledgable, and hilarious professor, but get ready to give his class your all. Quizzes are every week and there is a lot of high-level reading with pretty in-depth questions that require attention to detail as well as analysis. Regardless, I very much enjoyed this class and thought the material was important.

Great course! Very clear grading criteria, he'll extend assignments for you if you ask, accessible in office hours. Lectures were very good.

The class itself is pretty easy, however, if you are just looking for a free A for an honors course or general ed credit, I absolutely do not recommend it. Take some other free A.

Contrary to a previous rating, Derek isn't deceptive. He's accessible outside class and super helpful if you ask for help. Really goes out of his way for students and truly very caring. Get ready to read/write a lot. He gives extensions and takes late work but you put your nose to the grindstone for an A in this class, Sometimes grades stuff late.

One of my favorite professors! I have never been a big science person but was pleasantly surprised by how interesting this class was - a big part due to Prof. M's teaching style! He is very passionate and knowledgeable about the course. It is a challenging course, but if you do the work you'll do well and you will come out with new knowledge :)

ANTH1H is not an easy A. By his estimates, you'll need to spend ~16 hours per section (during the winter semester you'll complete 2 sections per week). However, I can guarantee at least one of the chapters will pique your interest. Dr. Milne is extremely knowledgeable, gives helpful feedback on assignments, and responds swiftly to messages.

There is A LOT of reading needed to do well in this class. 2 exams with a mix of multiple choice, true/false, and short answer. He gives you example short answer questions that could be on the exams. 1 extra credit opportunity but it's in Santa Clarita. NOT an easy A, you will have to work for it. I would recommend taking only 1 other class.

For his short online courses, there is a lot of time-consuming reading and watching. Exams are mildly challenging, but he does give a study guide. His Gibbon Center extra credit is high value but very inconvenient. Otherwise, he is very kind and made the course very enjoyable to learn. It is true that he grades insufferably slow. Work for your A.

There is a lot of work in the class. I took the class in Winter and the class felt overwhelming and exhausting. You probably can get a B or higher if you put in the effort.

Dr. Milne's Anthropology class is what inspired me to switch my major into Anthropology, his class is rigorous and you definitely need to be present in lectures and read articles to follow along but the lectures are engaging and subject interesting to learn! Recommend them to everyone I meet needing an anthro request. filled :^)

This class requires a lot of effort, but it's worth it if you're interested in the material. The professor is helpful, and unstuckstudy ai is a great tool for quiz prep.

Not a hard class, he gives pdfs which you read through and the class is graded by a decent amount of different things (Quizzes/Discussions/HW) which aren't hard so exams are only worth 40%, 1 midterm 1 final. Take him if you can and just keep up with the manageable work.

I would 100% take this class again. He is an amazing professor who gives great feedback. Be aware of having quizzes every week. Overall, he is super sweet.

This is a class that I would love to absolutely take again. Just be aware of weekly quizzes and lots of reading. If you do these things that I mentioned, then it will be worth it.

One of the most organized and engaging online classes i have ever taken. He is full of knowledge and his lecture videos are good. Some of the concepts are a bit difficult to understand but he is there to help explain it to you. Late work policy is chill; can submit one week after due date for 80% max. Not an easy A. Longest paper was 1000 words.

Professor Milne is an incredibly kind and caring person with an obvious passion for what he teaches, which greatly shows in his lectures. However, he is difficult to access outside of class, as he typically takes a while to reply to emails. Also, expect to wait 10+ minutes for his office hours. Overall though, great class and great professor!

This class requires a lot of work but he replies fast + you'll learn a lot. He does read everything and can be nitpicky when grading. When he grades, he's fast w/ catching up. HW is tedious but 1 weekly module (for Win/Sum) can be done in 1-4 days. Quizzes are free. MT + final is harder but all FRQs are answered directly from the book. An A is 88%.

Professor Derek Milne was one of the most kind and caring professors I have ever taken. I have never left a review before, but feel compelled to because of his outstanding kindness. Please take this professor as you will never be lost with his clear instructions and consistent feedback. I want to thank him for being so nice.

Prof. M was an incredible professor who gave great feedback on every assignment. I was a part of his Honors Biological Anthropology class, and while it was quite challenging, I learned so much! This class allowed me to perfectly explain evolution, genetic testing, taxonomic traits, etc. It is exactly like taking a class at a UC, 10/10.

Lowkey great class and the dude is pretty chill. It is definitely not a class that you can sleep throughout the whole semester tho. Definitely a lot more work then you'd expect for a GE class however if you aren't trolling its more than doable. Just keep up to date on the work he assigns and you'll be good.

Great professor, grading is clear and gives feedback. Just turn in everything on time and you should do well. You do have to actually pay attention to the material and understand it to do well on the midterm and final. You have a quiz every other week, couple of homework pieces that are fun to do and his video lectures are great

lots of reading, like, lots of reading... textbook is incredibly long and so are the videos and modules but you don't need to understand it in much depth to do well. discussions are initially due on thursday then replies on sunday, but are not too bad. midterm and final have some short answer questions, u can prewrite a few but the rest arent given

thought this class was going to be the end of me but it truly set me up for success. definitely a class that'll challenge your discipline & work ethnic but it is so worth it. lectures are fun, he's easy to talk to & very understanding, i brought my grade up from C to A. i look back at this class after transferring and i'm super grateful for milne
