Professor Mull is great at creating a fun environment for students and definitely pushed us to have interesting discussions based on the texts we studied in the class. Though he's a tough grader, he provides detailed feedback and allows resubmissions.

If you want to get better at writing take this professor. He is very hard so don't take if you are just trying to check a box. I respect this teacher very much. First day of class he said if you get an A in his class you should be able to get an A at any school in the nation.

Amazing professor. He creates fun and engaging lectures, as well as activities that break up any monotony. His class does require plenty of thought and reading, which often requires rereading the material several times over to then be able to formulate thoughts into a strong argument. I greatly enjoyed his class and instruction.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS! This teacher is a VERY tough grader and more then half of my class failed his class. He never cancels class even if only 2 kids show up and he gives way too many readings and busy work that did not teach me anything about critical thinking.. HORRIBLE CLASS! DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!!

He is a very tough grader. This has been my hardest class so far and my worst grade. I did learn never getting full credit was very discouraging.

Such an amazing professor! Yes, he IS a tough grader, but he gives you every opportunity to succeed. Not only has he helped me improve as a writer, but I was even excited to attend class every week because of the course content and the formatting of the lectures. On top of this, he cares a lot about his students, which is so nice to see!

He seems cool sometimes but honestly he just seems like he wants you to fail and does not really care about wether you learn anything. I did not learn a single this from his class besides the fact that he should probably not be teaching.

I enjoyed attending class and participating with my peers in John's thoughtfully designed group activities, which effectively connected the content to the course material. He provides excellent feedback, and attending class is essential for receiving valuable feedback from both peers and the professor. Would take again.

Professor Mull has to be one of the best teachers at MSJC, in my opinion. He's a really tough grader, but it was worth taking his class. This class was a prerequisite of mine, and I took it twice because it was fun to be in his class. The course subjects were strangely philosophical but related to critical thinking a lot, and he was kind and fair.
