Great class! Mr. Trujillo goes over basics of every philosopher's ideas before you read the articles. He has a PhD in Philosophy and very easy to follow. Reading assignments every week. Writing assignments each Chapter - your choice of philosopher. No tests. But plenty of reading and writing - definitely worth taking!
Great teacher! Very easy going. You'll need the book, but there's no heavy reading. You'll write a couple papers (1-2 pages). Easy class!!!
This professor makes Logic understandable. I couldn't believe how easy it was. Great at explaining things. Highly recommend this professor for any Philosophy course.
This was a great class. We talked about death and dying. We even talk about what we want for our funerals. He's not difficult. The word around town is that doesn't really give A's. I didn't get one. I got a B.
I Really like the way he teaches his students. He gives weird projects like planning your own funeral but still interesting. He makes you think a lot and that why I am going to take him for Phil7
Great teacher and very understanding and helpful. he makes you think allot...well, it made me. He is not a hard teacher..just do your work and you'll be fine. and he does give weird projects like planning our own funeral..but it was fun. his class is very fun and interesting. take him for a class..you wont regret it. I got a B, which is good.
Great instructor and easy on the eyes too. Can't ask for more.
Interesting, completely easy if you pay attention, and requires no more effort than writing a few short papers. Don't believe the "word around town" about him not giving A's...I managed one without much effort.
Great teacher. This class was fun with 6 short essays. If you read the assignments you are able to add to the in class discussions.
a very laid back teacher.. he makes the topis and lectures understanable and is willing to slow down for u. he likes questions and answers them superbly. there are presentations and papers which can be challenging but simples overall.
Wow great teacher, he is very smart and a very easy teacher. Just show up to class and do his assingments and a easy A is yours. This guy is real fun and makes his class fun. The only bad part is you have to do 4 oral group presentations. Other than that peace of cake.
Great teacher. Loved the class. You don't really need the book. You can find most of the articles online. He lets you pick the topics you want to write about. Not much hw just 1 pg opinions. Big on group assignments & group work. Final was an oral group presentation
I loved him, He made me want to start a Philosophy major. The class was relaxed and he let everyone share their ideas. He would never make you feel out of place. Recommended Highly!!!!!! 5 stars!
Trujillo, is awesome. He cusses but other than that he knows his stuff and gives you the grade you deserve and worked for. He is very understanding towards his sutudents' needs, but don't try and fool him with a dumb excuse. I loved taking his class since he made it enjoyable and totally fun...
Great Professor, easy A. If you can not get an "A" in this class you did not try. Very funny and will stop and explain anything you want. Likes to cuss some but that makes it all the more fun. Cool Pro. About 4 easy papers 1 to 2 pages and 4 group oral presentations. Just do your work. Love this Professor wish all where like him,
His class was very easy. Just do your homework. What is expected of you is explained at the beginning of the semester, and it doesn't change. He is kind of cool, but at the same time, he thinks he is funny when he is not.
Professor Trujillo is a fair teacher. He will work with you if you have problems with assignments. He will stop and explain himself if you do not understand. 4 papers are due typing is 3 pages double spaced. 4 oral presentations that follow the textbook arguments. Professor Trujillo is interested in what YOU think, and how you can explain why.
HES THE BEST TEACHER I EVERRRRRRRRRRRRR HAD SINCE I STARTED B.C HIS CLASS IS THE BEST! I RECCOMEND HIS CLASS TO EVERYONE!!!!!!!! AN EASY A!
He cares about what you think but he cuses a hell-la-va lot and is funny. Expect to do 3 papers about 900 words each. At least there is not so much bookwork but there is a lot of reading.
Professor Trujillo is AWESOME! He is hilarious and has serious passion for his area of expertise. I would HIGHLY recommend him for any philosophy class! GREAT PROFESSOR!!!!
this class is very easy if you just do your work. there is a lot of group work, the final is actually a group presentation and its easy!! the only problem is some of the groups have flaky people. but he does try to control that. otherwise he is very smart. you can tell by hte way he talks. i recommend him.
Dr. Trujill is the****. One Of My Best if not the best teachers Ive had in three years. Hes real laid back and is very interesting to listen. First few weeks is lectures but the the rest of the year is groups. The group projects are fun and challenging. Has 4 papers there not easy but its not hard. A lot of presentations but there fun
i loved this class. trujillo is hilarious but if you do not like sarcasm & profanity, pick another teacher. this class was interesting & fun because it was based on controversial issues. there is no textbook, just 3 small novels. if you are a good writer, you will do well in this class, as most of the work is composed of essays (& also group-work).
He is a great teacher. Im glad i had the chance to take his class, he is very helpful and funny. I wish all my Pros are like him. Just do all your work and go to class and you will get a good grade. If you have any question about anything just ask him and he will help you untill all questions are answered. I highly recommend him.
Wow, Trujillo is smart, funny, and can be quite intimidating with his foul mouth...I also find him to be incredibly sexy. This man knows his subject and won't take**** from anyone in class. This quickly became my favorite course, and I cannot express the gratitude for the amount of knowledge I've gained...great class for RN majors.
Great teacher, made a difficult topic interesting. Truly cares about his students and is always willing to answer or clarify points.
very cool teacher keeps it real and helps with anything you do not understand
Favorite teacher of all time. The subject matter really makes you think and he made it fun. For easy A..Class participation is a MUST.
Really cool teacher. Speaks to the class like they're equals. Did a project on planning my own funeral - does have the everyone do speeches in front of the class but grades for material more then delevery. A very good teacher- makes hard topics comfortable.
Great professor! He is very blunt and just wants you to have your own opinion on things. You do some crazy projects that get you thinking and class presentations which are very easy. Show up and do ALL the papers and you will get an A.
If he hadn't talked about his ex-wives as much as he did, I might actually have fallen in love with him. haha. He's in possession of an understated coolness, a coolness that can easily intimidate you and might even conquer you. I got the impression that he enjoys teaching.I was always trying to impress him. :)
I am just in love with this class. Very interesting topics, and professor trujillo isn't afraid to be himself or tell you how it is. lol which i love. Just be ready to have to think about stuff we arent too comfortable with. I recommend it.
Best teacher I've had at BC and he is hot! Made the class fun to be in and I wish all my teachers were this cool!
He is a great speaker with a fantastic voice, interesting, textured and fair. NEVER knew what he was thinking, I wish there was more lecture and less oral presentations, because the orals rely on the speakers' interest, which is NOT his level of presentation. Felt a little cheated by the structure of the class, but I LOVED him. Highly recommend!
Down to earth kinda guy
He's a very good teacher!! Gives high grades and easy topics essay/speeches. Easy A+++++++++++++
Trujillo is a very funny and cool teacher. he's very helpful i recommend him!
Took his class two semesters ago & loved it! Very easy, 4 essays and 2 essays of those are presented. Moderate amount of reading, practically no homework. Mr. T is extremely helpful
easy, down to earth guy.
You will learn a lot in this class. Great teacher, very entertaining. I have really enjoyed this class. He does talk fast so ask questions if you don't understand something. Easy class, but make sure you attend and do the homework.
This is the smartest man I have ever met, he is brilliant. The team speeches are scary at first, but you learn a lot. Participate in class and do well. Great class, great teacher. Loved the funeral project.Thanks Dr.T
One of the best professors at BC. The course material was interesting but Trujillo kept you interested and the conversations in class would epic. Would recommened to anyone not only needing to take a Phil class, but just for a good class. Only wish he taught other courses!
Best teacher at BC hands down!! I took PHIL B12 & B6a with him, and I wish he taught more courses! He's so intelligent and comical you'll WANT to come to class. The classes are fairly easy too. I think I was in love with him by the end of my second semester ;). Take his Class!!
Best class I have ever taken. I wish all teachers were this great. Our class was involved in reading, writing, class discussions and short group presentations. His grading is fair. I recieved an A. If you do your hw you will do great. I strongly recommend taking his class.
HE IS AWESOME!! ONE OF THE BEST TEACHERS AT BC!!HE WILL EXPOSE YOU TO MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF ISSUES.YOU HAVE A CLASS ORAL PRESENTATION IN FRONT OF THE CLASS.IT'S SIMPLE JUST MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW HIS DIRECTIONS ON THE ASSIGNMENT AND YOU WILL BE FINE.
Dr T made me laugh every time I was in class. He is honestly one of the only teachers at BC that has made me feel like an adult. I am 36 and other teachers treat myself and others like they are still in high school. Dr T is extremely intelligent. Simply do his assignments and you will get an A or B. Loved the class
Down to earth professor! really funny and makes the class fun. Follow his instructions, stay on top of your HW and you should be fine!
Since it's a critical thinking course, he expected more out of us..he's very helpful and funny!! Great guy!!
Very helpful teacher and has a lot of knowledge on all sorts of topics. Just be ready to do a lot of reading and come prepared to class. He requires that you participate in class and have a one page paper to turn into him every day on the reading. His class will make a you a better writer and better thinker.
Love his class!!!! His class was fun , and he is very understanding if you explain the issue to him. Don't leave his class early he finds it disrespectful unless you tell him why your leaving. Very helpful and responds to email questions in a timely manner. Wish he taught a different subject so I could take his class again.
This philosophy prof has earned his phD and uses it well. I don't believe he always calls roll. He assigns reading for ever class and usually discusses it in class. On the topics of euthanasia and assisted suicide, he obviously takes the permissive side, counter to popular opinion. He will listen uncritically to other opinions fairly.
This professor is young for middle aged and of latino origen, originally from Cuba. He is talkative, knowlegeable and mildly opinionated. The 3 books are used and referred to in nearly every class session. He doesn't care for disrespect or disruptions;he will point this out. He sides with the "pro-death" groups, but will listen to opposing views.
I LOVED this class! I would definitely recommend Dr. Trujillo. He is a very smart man and you can tell that by the class discussions. He also has a great sense of humor. Just show up, do what you are supposed to do, and you will pass this class. I loved it! I wish I could take another class with him.
Very funny teacher! I really enjoyed the class. You really have to be prepared for the presentations you do in class, they are easy but if your not ready you will get a low grade! I highly recommend
This was the most interesting class that I have ever taking in my college experience so far and I have been in school for awhile. He made the class fun even with such deep topics we had to discuss. I recommend this class and professor to anyone out there looking for a class of a different beat, or a mandatory class they need. He was awesome!!!!
Interesting class, casual atmosphere, and overall easy!!!! Dr. T is highly intelligent & self assured. He is very approachable & responds to E-nails promptly! Two papers, 3 essays (super easy) 1 Extra credit & 4 group presentations (not so bad at all) show up everyday on time & you will pass! Highly recommend !
Excellent professor and a very interesting class. Easy A if you do all the required projects.
LOVE him. Super easy & fun. Recommended.
If you need to take Philosophy, definitely take it with Trujillo! He is so funny and so helpful. The class is cool and laid back. And if you do what you need to, you're almost guaranteed a good grade. Definitely recommend!
Great teacher! He actually takes the time to explain things when they are not clear and has great communication!
Excellent Professor. Makes class fun and interesting. Really makes you think about real life situations. i loved him.
LOVED THIS PROFESSOR!!! easily the best class i've taken at BC. He is so awesome, funny, and smart!! took this over the summer but wished i took it during the year cuz i loved this class so much.
Took it over the summer so quick course. Funny and very informing Deep talks got the class more involved and he is open to all thoughts which gives a more comfortable environment.
Awesome class to take coming into adulthood. Trujillo really makes you think about many realities that you would never consider on your own and where you would stand in certain situations. Enjoyed this class so much. Never missed a day and took a lot from it than just a good grade and some units. Learned a lot about myself through this course.
Best professor I've ever had!!!!! He makes the class so interesting and fun. Also, he's always willing to help!!! I so recommend you to take this class with Mr. Trujillo.
I never speak in class. But, the first time I did, Trujillo laughed at me and made me feel like an idiot. Don't take him.
Great instructor and great class room discussions. He is very down to earth. The living and dying class was an eye-opener for me. I made me think about very difficult topics in a way that helped me to get what they're about about. Would definitely take this class!
This is a very tough class, but Trujillo helped me to think and write better. I would recommend this class to anyone who is preparing for transfer to a four year school. We had great discussions in class and prof was very available for help during office hours.
Trujillo's B9 class is tough. He definitely makes you work for every grade you receive, but he gives amazing feedback and is always willing to help every student. Class discussions are absolutely interesting! I would recommend this class for anyone preparing to to transfer to a university because that is how your work will be graded.
Took this class for general education requirement and loved it. One of the best classes and best profs I've had in college. Definite take this class and take it with Trujillo.
Great Teacher, Great Class! One of the most interesting classes I've taken at BC and I love this class. If you get a chance to take this class, take it!
At first, I thought I was gonna regret taking this class last semester but instead I really enjoyed it. Towards the end of the semester, you have to do a group project and it's really a lot of fun! Your grade then depends on attendance and the issue role you were assign too. He also very doesnt give much extra credit, so when he does take advantage
As long as you talk once every class meeting you'll be fine because participation can hurt your grade (if you don't participate)! He's a tough grader on the big essays but very lenient when it comes to the smaller assignments. The class topics are very interesting and he is very funny. One of the best classes I've taken!
I took B12 during summer school. When I went in to the class, I thought it would be an easy A, but Mr. Trujillo makes you work very hard to earn it. He graded the funeral project harshly, so if you take this class, be sure to do your best on that project. You must be mindful of others people's opinions because there are some different opinions.
Dr. Trujillo is an amazing professor! He makes class interesting and fun, while dealing with some tough topics. There's a lot of interesting reading. Your grade really depends on you and how much you work for it. You do group presentations and a funeral project. The class does not disappoint. I'd definitely take it again.
He cusses so much and its funny at first but it distracts me from what he's trying to explain. funeral project is huge and group projects are pretty easy. He gives extra credit in the middle of the semester. Its an OK class , not an easy A bit definitely hard to fail
This was a great class. It opened my eyes to a lot of issues that I hadn't understood before. Prof. Trujillo is down to earth and easy to talk to. Great lectures at the beginning of the class and I enjoyed the group work.
Great class that really helped me to improve my writing. It's a tough class; you will be writing nearly every day. If you want to transfer to a four year school, this class will help you a lot.
Great class! TRUJILLO is funny and easy to relate to. He makes difficult issues easy to understand. Really enjoyed the group work .
This was a great class and Trujillo was one of the best profs I've had at BC. He's really funny and gets great discussions going in class. Definitely glad I took this class.
Great class and an amazing prof. Dr. T is down to earth and encourages discussions and different opinions in the class. Definitely recommend this class. One of the best classes and teachers I've had at BC.
Best professor I've had. His class is very interesting. He adds humor to it.
He gets off topic sometimes and tells hilarious stories. The presentations are given in groups. You basically just have to talk for a few minutes and you can read off your paper. He's an enjoyable class
He's an amazing teacher. He explains everything when it's hard. He has a good sence of humor. The group projects he explains them very good.
He's a decent professor but grades far too tough on the papers. I've gotten good marks on all my papers till this class when I struggled at first. It's his way or the highway. Somewhat arrogant and does curse occasionally. Many students did find this entertaining.
He's definitely a character but when it came to serious matters, he knew when to act accordingly. One of the best professors I've ever had.
