Mr. McCully's class was very easy and fun. He teaches off of powerpoint slides and there are a lot of notes, but he posts all of his slides. There are only 3 quizzes and the final and a research paper on a topic of your choosing. He grades fairly easy and is a bery easy going and cool guy.

This is the coolest Professor I have ever had at AVC. The guy has experience in the actual business and some stories to tell. I wish they could break this class into multiple classes because there is just to much info and too little time. Out of all my classes this semester I always looked forward to this class every day.

I enjoy Mr. McCully as my instructor. He does knows his stuff when it comes to music. Though there isn't much homework, there is a lot of note taking. And it's very relaxing. You get to hear music of the classic rock bands. It's defiantly educational and influantial regardless of what is your major.

Professor McCully is chill, does not require participation, and does not require your camera to be on. We are required to write one 6 page paper and he is a strict grader but if it gets done, it shouldn't receive lower than a B. there are 3 tests and they cover exactly what the lectures consist of. Overall, his class is fun and interesting!

This war a great class, very fun and easy. Most days are just lectures on specific artists/genres in rock music, with a few papers due, a few tests, and one big research paper. Other than the research paper, you will experience basically no stress from this class and just get to sit back and listen.

Michael is by far one of, if not the best, professors I've ever had. He teaches very well, ensuring his students know the information needed to pass. Work is highly minimal, and is not difficult. Michael is hilarious too, always making his lectures interesting and enticing without fail. I would say that Michael is an outstanding, caring professor.

His class is like listening to a really fun podcast. This has been said so many times already, but Prof McCully is genuinely so funny and engaging. Even the assignments are fun. The quizzes are like a trivia game and the research paper is just an excuse to go down a rabbit hole on your favorite artists. I recommended his class to everyone I could.

Very fun class with few assignments. Also very note-heavy but as long as you are caught up the quizzes are easy. The few assignments posted have really clear guidelines to follow. Main thing to keep track of is the research paper. Definitely worth taking if interested in rock music.

There's nothing bad to say about this guy or the class. McCully's the best. You learn about awesome songs and artists from different decades. He assigns papers here & there and a large paper due near the end of the semester but you're given plenty of time. The tests are fun to take too. Everything's on you in the class, take care of business.

This is a class you will be waiting to return to every week and you are sure to be impressed by certain historical facts you might not have already known. Great class, great experience.

This is the best professor you will ever take for mus-103. He is the funniest person you will ever meet, and he makes a connection with his students. He cares a lot about your grades, will let you take pictures of the notes when needed, and will pull you aside to show you how to use certain programs. 10/10 teacher, take his class.

Professor McCully was by far my favorite professor i've ever had. Coming to his class at 8 in the morning was very energizing. He was always so forgiving if you'd miss class or were late. There were exams about once a month, maybe less, and about two essays in the whole class. I loved this class and McCully made all the difference. 10/10.

Take good notes, and turn things in on time, because there's no accepted late work. Some tests and papers, but tests are easy with good notes, and he's lenient on papers so long as you meet the requirements. Highly recommend!

Prof McCully is hilarious, relatable, and caring. There's about 3short papers, 3 quizzes (the last 1 being the final that's not cumulative). Everything in the lectures is on the tests. Super straightforward, no surprises, and will work with you when you communicate. I highly recommend Prof McCully if you need an easy class.

I originally took this class for creative reasons & was prepared the common cut-throat approach. Nah. Prof made the rich history of rock and roll come to life, from the roots of blues to the scene of punk! Each artist/band was exemplary, he really introduces you to new music whilst also giving advice or sharing amazing stories! Def & 100% recommend

I'm not a big music person, but I learned a lot at the start of this class. At first, it was so much fun, even though he's lecture-heavy. But I lost my respect for Mr. McCully when he started talking about substance abuse and promoting certain forms of drugs by talking about his "experiences". Otherwise, I would have really enjoyed this class.

This was my fav class I took Spring Sem!! Prof. McCully is the perfect person to teach this kind of subject. He's funny, laid back, and gives very little work. He's very pungent on due dates!! He gives us weeks, sometimes months in advance for assignments, but because of that he accepts literally no late work. Over all an amazing class/teacher!!
