HARD class. Bring a computer to take notes. Exams are almost impossible. Not much extra credit. Lots of material so make sure you study. Ask him to give the review guide early otherwise you'll end up getting it two days before the test. Your hand will cramp by the end of this class. Nice guy but very tough grader.

This class is the most stressful class i've ever taken in my life. Tests are INCREDIBLY hard and he is not clear on what he wants for the final paper. I would advise to not take any philosophy at NCC and perhaps go to HCC instead. The professors there are much less demanding.

One of the BEST professors I've had at NCC. I never wanted to take Philosophy because I didn't think I would understand it but he made it easy.

Mixie is great! He just about gives you all the answers to the exams in his review. You have to be an idiot to fail. Learned a lot. Take him

great personality. Plenty of dry humor. This class will make you think. Best exam reviews ever. Maybe 4 HW assignments. Very simple. 2 projects due but they are very simple. Just follow his outline. If he wants your presentation to be 5 mins make it 4.5 mins dont go over. He means what he says. Great professor. He makes the material interesting.

My only problem is that his quizzes and exams and not clear. Philosophy in general is not clear but he would tell you the definition of something in a lecture then you'd have to figure out which answer is the closest to what he means and you'll probably get it wrong. Course work is done at you own time everything is due at the end of the semester.
