Go to all the lectures! They are enjoyable, and if you go to lectures you really won't need to do readings. Discussions are always respectful, interesting, and beneficial. Holland grades based on understanding of topic, not institutional things like APA, word counts, and fancy vocab. Wants students to actually learn, not just pass.

Dr. Holland is an incredible professor. He had some hard life stuff happening this semester but still showed up to lecture. He is real, caring, knowledgeable and HILARIOUS, especially for an 8am. There's quite a few papers, but he's clear on the guidelines and he makes it interesting. Take this class, you won't regret it.

Really clear lectures and great dad jokes.

I loved this class and would recommend it to everyone. Class usually consisted of lectures and you just need to show up, pay attention, take notes and you'll be good to go. Dr. Holland is very caring and entertaining.

Overall, great professor. He is very direct with his lectures and provides help in any way. Attendance is very important because it's a huge part of your grade. Also make sure you review his powerpoints because those are also important.

This guy is a real gem, GCU needs to hire more of them like Rich.

Professor Holland is such a great, kind professor. Only bad thing was there wasnt exactly study guides for quizzes but if you pay attention to his lectures you should do good in the class.

He's a good professor. He knows what would be best for the students (make us do only essay instead of presentation and essay). Participation counts a lot toward grades. He teaches fast but will post the presentation up, so you can keep up the notes. He has funny stories. "We have a lot of minutes left".

Awesome and caring teacher, very knowledgeable on Christian Worldview and Philosophy. He does count attendence, although it won't be a big deal because you will want to show up for class to hear his great lectures!

Loved having Professor Holland, he made every class a great time. He genuinely cares about every person that walks into his classroom

Dr. Holland is a great professor. He is really funny, cares about his students, and does his best to make his lectures interesting. He has clear grading criteria and sticks to it. Great professor. Everyone should take his class for PHI103.

Hes a very personable professor. He is funny, kind, and sweet. He cares for his students. The class is pretty easy. If you pay attention in lectures (you don't even have to take notes) you will get an A.

Holland is the best and really cares about his students! I was nervous to take this class as a GE (not in my major) but it was an easy A. If you show up and study the night before exams you'll seriously get like 100 in the class. I never showed up but Im good at test taking, if you aren't, just show up and you'll be good. Fun class and a great man!

Dr. Holland is a wonderful professor. The lecture times are very productive and fast-moving. He occasionally lightens up the heavy material by entertaining the class with stories or with his rather corny sense of humor. His quizzes are simple, and he is a merciful grader on assignments. You can tell he truly cares about his students!

Mr. Holland is a professor. He only lectures but they are not boring. He always makes real world connections so that we could relate to him or the topic. He would explain all the assignments in detail and will always answer questions. I really enjoyed the class. The quizzes are mainly based on the lecture and readings. Show up and you'll pass.

I loved Dr. Holland so much! I was nervous to take this course but he made it so enjoyable. He is intentional with his lectures and he genuinely cares for his students and their success. I looked forward to going to that class because he is upbeat, very intelligent, and so funny. Would highly recommend taking his class!

Rich is a great professor who cares a lot about his students and wants to help everyone succeed. The only thing I did not like about his class was all the reading material, but that was all from curriculum and not from him. He acknowledged that the work load was heavy and did all he could to help with that.

fantastic

The only professor to keep my attention during an entire class. He is so passionate and knowledgeable about philosophy and it shows. He expects high quality work, but is also helpful with feedback if you request it. Show up, laugh at his jokes because they're funny & people take themselves too seriously. You'll leave the class knowing more.

One of the best instructors I have ever had! He makes Philosophy interesting and easy to understand. He really cares about his students and gives students everything they need to succeed. I would recommend this professor to anyone.

Dr. Holland is one of my favorite professors. I was dreading to take philosophy but he turned the class into something that I looked forward to. He is very caring and passionate about what he does, which is truly inspiring. I will honestly miss his energy. Anyways, it was a very easy class just show up and take good notes.

Dr Holland is a great prof the class is super lecture heavy but he keeps you intrigued and interested quizzes are fairly easy but you will have to study some overall if you put in the effort dr Holland will guide you and help you pass the class

Dr. Holland is one of the few people in this world that is meant to be a philosophy professor. He explained the material very well and it was all easy to understand if you came to class and listened. Some people said the class was hard but thats if you miss the material. He always put students health first and made assignments easier if anything.

He was one of my favorite professors. He did a great job keeping the information we were covering interested and did a great job explaining things. He really cares about the students and wants you to succeed.

Professor Holland is amazing. Great lectures, great material, lots of fun in his class. He made it easy for me to understand the material and get a good grade. I never got anything below and A on his assignments. He gives you everything you need. He is also very funny! Highly reccomend.

Professor Holland was one of my favorite professors. He is inspirational, kind and caring. You can tell he knows what he is talking about and he prepares his lectures thoroughly. I usually hate sitting in on lectures, but he made it easy. If you put in the effort, you can definitely get an A. Take his class!

Best professor I've ever had. GCU needs to hire more professors like Dr. Holland. This class is not super easy, but Dr. Holland makes it and enjoyable. He gives you a guide for every assignment. Tests are challenging, but if you look through his study guides, you'll be good. If you have to change around your schedule to get Dr. Holland, DO IT.

Dr. Holland is a well respected, caring teacher who puts students first and really wants to see students succeed. Keys to success in the class are take good notes, go to class, and read anything he puts in the announcements/instructions.

An amazing professor who is not only accessible outside of class, but does his best to make sure students pass. He gives detailed instructions on assignments and makes sure to cover them in class as well. Everything you need to succeed is clearly laid out. The course material is not easy, but he made learning fun

Dr. Holland knows what he is talking about and is passionate about it. More so, he is clearly more passionate in what his students can take away from the class than simply lecturing. He provides many opportunities to ask questions, is very easygoing, and always engaging during class.

He is very clear and is very understanding. He gives you everything you need to complete any assignment.

Dr. Holland is an awesome professor. I highly recommend taking any class with him as a professor when you have the chance. He cares about his students and actually wants them to pass. The instructions for every assignment are clear and easy to understand. Philosophy is not an easy topic but he makes it easier to understand!

Professor Holland was a great teacher and made the material as easy to understand as possible in philosophy. He was funny and made class engaging.

Dr. Holland gives out a note taking guide for each topic that matches his lectures that then in turn becomes the study guide for the quizzes. There was never a question on the test that was not on the guide. He would walk through every assignment so you knew what was expected. A bit lecture heavy but overall he was an amazing professor that cares.

Professor Holland is a really great teacher and person, he's super understanding and makes the class as easy as he can. The class itself was just really hard content to learn, and the lecture was heavy. But professor Holland really tries to make it as easy as he can, Quizzes and homework are very straightforward and right out of your notes

Dr. Holland is the best professor Ive had thus far. I had a couple issues with misunderstanding assignment requirements or questions, but I reached out to him and he was very helpful. Its really important to take all the notes you can and look at the study guide before class. He makes the class fun and easy if you pay attention the whole time.

Dr. Holland is one of the most passionate professors I've had at GCU. He is very informed about the content he teaches and wants you to succeed. I appreciated that he was always available to answer questions at the end of class and was very responsive via the private forum. You won't need your textbook much since he provides thorough lecture notes.

Dr. Holland was a great professor despite his lecture heavy classes. He would take the full hour and 45 minutes but for the most part, he made his lectures interesting and engaging. Dr. Holland is super funny and I never dreaded going to his class. He was very clear on what he wanted from us in all our assignments.

Dr. Holland is an amazing professor who genuinely cares about his students' success in the class. He does a skilled job at explaining complex concepts in ways that are simple to understand. He also ensures that students have everything necessary to get a good grade in the class. I highly recommend taking his class if given the opportunity.

Dr. Holland is very intelligent and knowledgeable about philosophy. This is an extremely lecture heavy class with lots of notes. He does give strict, clear grading criteria on how to get a good grade on assignments/papers. He takes up the whole class period lecturing. He is nice, but sometimes classes are hard to sit through. Participation counts!

Professor Holland was a great teacher. Everything for the test is on the not taking guide so as long as you show up and take the notes you should do fine.

Every assignment is clear and to the point, the lectures can be dense. But great professor

I did not know what to expect going into Dr. Holland's philosophy class. What I know now is that Dr. Holland is one of, if not the best professor I have encountered at GCU. His lectures are stacked with useful knowledge and he does an excellent job at explaining the topics. If you are signing up for an Intro to Philosophy course, then go Holland.

I loved taking Dr. Holland's class! He made the material simple to understand and gave fill in notes to give us further understanding. He said multiple times that if you put in the effort he will try his best to give you an A. He was right! Try your best and you will succeed.

Hands down, Holland is the greatest lecturer at GCU. I could listen to him talk for 5 hours without yawning once. The course tries to teach philosophy through God extremely aggressively but as a godless person, this course helped me conclude that religion and philosophy are a waste of time. Great guy, this class for me was an elective.

Great professor. A very good lecturer and is good at explaining concepts well. Very kind to his students and his lectures were captivating and interesting.

Dr. Holland is hands down one of the best professors ive had at gcu. He makes his classes entertaining and mostly lectures but gives out guided note pages for you. Dr. Holland breaks down everything and makes it super easy to understand & goes over homework/assignments in class. If you put in the effort youll pass with an A !

Holland is the only professor worth waking up at 7am for. Despite philosophy being a heavy class he makes jokes and does his best to make it an enjoyable time. He lets class out early everyday and he is down to earth and relatable. If you can get him switch into his class.

An absolutely amazing Professor. If you have the chance to take him, do it. He lecture in away that helps you to remember the material with little studying. He genuinely cares about his students and their thinking on life. Will make the class engaging and will answer any questions in a meaningful way.

Professor Holland was one of the best professors i've had in a long time. He cares a lot about his students and it definitely shows. If you have the chance to take one of his classes, I 100% recommend!

By far the best college prof I have ever had. He is engaging in his lectures and makes sure he explains the material for the students to understand.

Lots of papers and lecture heavy. Very entertaining in class.

An amazing professor, who goes out of his way to help ensure his students are set up to get an A. He changes assignments to make them easier, and has additional instructions to make them more clear. Although he is lecture heavy, he hands out a note taking guide to follow along with. What is on the quizzes is on the notes. Take him, guaranteed A!

Dr. Holland's class was my favorite. He is funny and loud. Very lecture-heavy, but is very organized. Will change assignments to make them easier. Sets his students up for success.

GREAT PROFESSOR!!!!!!!! if you show up to class he will tell you what to do and what to expect in tests and homework assignments.

Professor Holland is by far one of my favorite professors I have had so far here at GCU! He is so engaging in the class lectures, he makes it clear what his expectations are, and he is very knowledgeable in his field. Also so entertaining!! Simply go to class and you will pass. I would highly recommend him to anyone taking this course!!!

Professor Holland is seriously so awesome. Yes, he lectures the whole class and there is no way to get out of attendance. However, he is such an awesome teacher and makes philosophy a lot less boring than it is. He turns all of our essays into worksheets and truly just wants each of us to succeed. Would def recommend!!

I honestly don't know why professor Holland has any bad ratings, currently his class is the only one I'm truly interested in going to. He may be a little quirky and loud but thats makes me enjoy his class all the more. He makes his lectures extremely interesting. He also lays out everything you need to ace every assignment.

While it may be true that all his assignments are based on what we learn in class (so basically don't miss class). I personally think he gave us all the material we needed to pass the class. Everything I needed for the quizzes and for the assignments I could find in the notes he gives us in class and the guides he gives us. Holland is great!

changes assignments to make them easier, gives notecards to use on tests, makes study guides, posts 20 min exam prep vids, and CARES! the first passionate professor who wants his students to succeed. please ignore the obvious 1 person who spammed with bad comments, he is AMAZING and this class will change your life if you let it.

Dr. Holland is an amazing professor, on the fact if you engage and put the effort in, you will learn so much in the class and in life. He will lecture a lot but he makes it exciting by engaging the students and being very passionate and entertaining when he speaks. This class helped me realize that hard work pays off.

Prof Holland was amazing. Show up to class and take good notes and you'll be set. He literally sets assignments up for you to get everything right. lecture heavy but it's on the test. really cares about you and your grade

I loved this class even at 7 AM! It is somewhat difficult but as long as you really put in an effort and show up to class it's easy to pass. Professor Holland is engaging and always gives the materials necessary to ace every test and assignment. I honestly think the bad ratings on here are just from people who did't do well because they didn't try.

One of the best professors! If you make sure you go to class and pay attention, then you will be fine. But if you slack off, then I can see how you would fall behind easily. Professor Holland definitely holds students to a high standard, but he is extremely good at explaining things and makes lectures entertaining. I would recommend him!

I thought Dr. Holland was a great professor! His class is my favorite one to go to this semester. It is crucial to have good attendance because he is heavy on lectures and your notes only really make sense if you are in class. His tests are not difficult and each assignment has an instructional video. I would take this class again if I could!

a great guy makes the class very interesting and wants you to succeed and gives you all the resources in order to do so. im not a fan of the subject but hes able to keep me engadged. it is a little hard if you miss a class and catch up so make sure you show up

Assigns lots of homework but they were usually easy assignments. Well-spoken and knowledgeable. Wants you to succeed and provides you with everything needed to get a good grade. Relates topics to real-world scenarios to help students understand them. Provided note guides and gave 3 exams throughout the semester. Very loud at times.

A good teacher!

Dr. Holland is an amazing professor. Participation is extremely important. Dr. Holland explains concepts in a way that is easy to understand and he tells you exactly what you need to know and do to ace the class. He is engaging, and caring, and also makes class fun. Expect him to lecture the whole time, but he keeps class interesting.

Holland is amazing! If you have to take philosophy, you NEED him. He makes hard concepts make sense, prints note pages for you, and is super funny. It is lecture heavy and participation is mandatory. His class was something I looked forward to! 10/10 take him!

Dr. Holland was a great professor. Although the exams and assignments are pretty difficult, he genuinely wants his students to succeed.

Dr. Holland is the best professor I have had at GCU! He truly cares for his students and he always helps us to think deeper. His philosophy class was very enjoyable. All you have to do is show up, pay attention, take handwritten notes, and you will do just fine. Seriously! He wants his students to get an A in the class and tries his best to help.

Out of all the philosphy teachers at GCU he really goes above and beyond and gives you all the material and additional help that you need to receive an A in his class. You must show up to class every time for participation and to learn the content. But again he makes the assignments easier and makes the exams super easy!

Dr. Holland is incredible and I will never stop recommending him!! So caring and informational. Participation is really important, so if you are a class skipper, he is not for you, but his lectures are so entertaining and fun. I literally considered adding a philosophy minor to my degree because of how wonderful he is.

Holland is easily the best Philosophy teacher hands down. Although I may not have performed the best in his class, he provided everything you needed to earn an A. One thing I would look out for is he zooms past lectures. Sometimes the material came off as confusing to me but from what I've heard, no other Professor tops him because he truly cares.

Professor Holland is really fun and has a good understanding of his subject. He has a strong presence while lecturing and has very comprehensive note papers and slides. Though his lectures are engaging his slides and note papers don't always match up and his lecture slides are very visually bland. He is very good.

Professor Holland loved his job, he is a strong Christian and always prayed for us before tests and quizzes. He was caring and made the classroom of 100+ students feel heard at all times. Not many hard assignments, but he lectures every class session, so it would get pretty boring. Overall great teacher though!

Holland is a professor who truly cares. He is super kind, but he is a tough grader. As long as you participate and stay engaged, you'll be fine. He conveys information well and it was easy to understand what he taught! He is pretty strict on participation so make sure you show up! Overall, great, God-fearing guy!

This teacher wants you to pass with an A, but you have to work for it.

I really enjoyed this class. Dr Holland was super helpful and always made changes to assignments so that they were easier for us to do. If you show up and listen you will get a good grade

Dr. Holland was the best professor I have ever had. He started by saying his favorite grade to give out is an A. He has a lot of passion for philosophy, and his lectures are amazing. Sometimes they can get boring because the material is, but just hang in there. The low ratings are probably people who didn't show up to class. He communicated great

Prior to starting the course, I anticipated philosophy to be a difficult class full of complex topics. However, Dr. Holland made the class both understandable and interesting. He is an engaging presenter and provides fill in the blank notes during lectures.

He is one of the best teachers ever and wants you to succeed and cares about everyone

This class made me love philosophy. Lectures are very thorough and easy to understand. He provides a fill-in-the-blank note guide to complete during lectures. Although you may have different beliefs and are not required to change them, remember that GCU is a Christian university, so expect classes like this one to lean towards this worldview.

Dr Holland is a very caring and proud professor. Majority of work is a guided notes sheet that he hands out, and for exams we are allowed to have a note card with all we want to write on it. He is very passionate about his career and it shows within his work. He is very knowledgeable and knows everything that is on his presentations.

Holland keeps students the whole class period and lectures the entire time, but his notes are helpful. I would take him again, but make sure you have a long attention span because it can be boring.

Do not miss class because you will not pass. His attendance policy is the only annoying thing about him. Even if youre deathly ill or get in a car accident, the only way you can get material from class is through a friend. He NEVER posts material. Long but great lectures. Easy grader. Pretty funny and nice. Take him if you have this course.

I totally recommend Dr. Holland! Such a great and genuine professor. Take note, the class is very lecture heavy, and if you miss the lectures the only way to get caught up is from a friend. Otherwise he is wonderful and a very funny guy! He gives guided notes to follow, and always tells students that his favorite grade to give is an A!

Professor Holland took an entry level class and made it fun and interesting. He was very clear on all assignments and tests and guides his students into success. He is a great person and cares about his students deeply. He makes essays into worksheets and lets you use notecards on tests. Only pencil and paper for notes but hands out note guides.

Dr. Holland was an amazing professor -- he deeply cares about his students and has excellent lectures. I found his class to be one of the most important classes I'll ever take. His classes are mandatory participation and he doesn't post any notes. However, he doesn't believe in essays so the workload is manageable. I'd 1000% recommend him!

Dr. Holland was incredible. All of the bad reviews are from lazy students or people who can't handle hearing the Christian worldview being applied to the criteria every once in a while, but HELLO, it's a Christian university. He was very kind, caring, and helpful. Lectures were always interesting and clear. Assignments and exams were easy too.11/10

Very strict with participation, cannot make it up. Will not make many exceptions to syllabus or class policies. Overall, a very interesting class and he makes boring things fun. He is very well qualified to teach the course. He cares and prays for students. No essays, he turned them all into worksheets. Also offers extra credit!!

Rich Holland is a great professor and engages heavily into class material. He deliberately makes the class as easy as possible for those who put in the effort, making attending class and worth the time. The only problem is that he does not discuss obvious fallacies with Christian philosophy, and any attempt to challenge it is completely prohibited.

You should definitely take him, he genuinely wants his students to succeed in his class and cares about each student. His classes are long, but he gives you all the information in class for assignments and exams. He is awesome!

Dr. Holland is one of the best teachers I have ever had. He is very knowledgeable about the subject matter and his lectures are super engaging. I admire how passionate he is about teaching and you can tell that he truly cares about the work he does. I learned so much from him and I'm so grateful to have had him as a teacher!

Dr. Holland is an amazing professor who genuinely cares about his work and his students. All of the material is taught in class, so attendence is very important. His lectures are very engaging and reflect his passion for psychology.

Holland lectures very heavily and in a boring way, with just content and no way to retain the information. Notes are fill in the blank while does help, and notecards for exams. He wants you succeed, but the class is boring.

Great professor directed my life for the better. Pay attention in class and you'll pass

Take this professor! I truly learned the material in this class,not just memorized it because his lectures are easy to understand and are engaging. Assignments are clear. Like he says, if you show up, pay attention, and take notes you will get an A. He cares about his students and you can see that in his teaching. Looked forward to class everyday!

He uses the entire class time, but you will leave understanding the material. If you want an A, you have to go to class. He explains each topic thoroughly but you may not be able to learn the concepts on your own, you'll need his explanation. Take notes and pay attention! He is always there if you need extra help. He's clear in his expectations.

Great professor. It was very important to him that I achieved success in this class. He is a very well-spoken guy and knows what he is talking about. He gives minimal homework along with easy exams.

Loved this class! The only thing I would change is his lectures were a little drawn out but I do understand the concepts were hard for some people so he was making sure everyone understood. I had taken the class in high school so it was okay but he is a great person and professor. I would have loved to get him for another class.

Dr. Holland was a good professor. He cares deeply about the content that he is teaching and wants everyone to succeed. As long as you go to class, pay attention, and take notes, you will get an A in the class. Sometimes it feels like he is talking forever but try and stay engaged and it is fun. I would take him again for sure!

Dr. Holland is one of the best professors I have had during my time at GCU. He is very transparent about how important participation is but show up and you will succeed. He will lecture and his lectures will be very important to completing the assignments. He makes the assignments easier and very little ourside research is required for assignments.

This was one of my favorite classes because of the prof. He is passionate about what he is saying and offers wisdom in his lectures. He is strict on following his class policies and you must be in class to understand what is happening it moves quick. Overall he wants everyone to get an A and that is clear in how he teaches and help students.

Professor Holland's class is engaging, but his lectures can be long. Attend class, take notes, and use resources like Unstuck ai to succeed. The grading is fair, and he wants students to do well.

Dr. Holland is an amazing professor and he makes it very easy to get a good grade if you are willing to put in effort. His lectures are perfectly clear and concise, he's got a funny personality, and he's very helpful if you ever have any questions. I highly recommend Dr. Holland for PHI103, I'm sure he's also amazing in any other courses.

I'm a big fan of Rich. You can tell when someone loves their job and he does. He really cares about his students and wants them to do well. He is a great guy. Also very smart like my brain hurt everyday but in a good way. If you go to class you'll get a good grade.

You can tell that he knows a lot about what he is teaching, and all of the lectures were well-prepared and thought-provoking. For the assignments, he made sure that all of the students were beyond prepared and usually didn't assign homework. Attendance was mandatory, and it can be easy to fall behind if you miss a day or two.

I loved him and would take this class again!! So funny and brings light to a heavy deep conversation. It is very engaging

He was a great professor I liked the class but it was a bit confusing at times. You can tell he is very passionate about what he does and sometimes it kind of comes off as loud or opinionated but I still think he is a great professor. The class was relatively east but you have to go to class and pay attention and he is very strict on being in class

Dr. Holland was an amazing professor for this PHI-103. He is very passionate about what he teaches, and that makes it easier for students to engage with the material. Because of how well he taught it, I became interested in philosophy and picked up a minor in it. He makes his assignments very easy to get good grades on, as long as you go to class.

AMAZING PROFESSOR! Absolutely loved Dr. Holland. He is very clear on what he expects and he made it very easy to succeed and learn so much. I learned more in his class than in any of my other classes and I always looked forward to it. The note guides that he gives are very helpful and all assignments/quizzes are easy if you do what he asks.

Prof. Holland was a very entertaining professor. His classes are all very lecture heavy so prepare for that, at least the content is interesting.

Dr. Holland is an amazing professor. This class is incredibly easy if you show up to every class and follow the simple instructions. He makes it as easy as possible to pass this class for students who put in the effort. The only complaint I've ever had about this class is the lecture room set up, which isn't his fault, it just feels really packed.

Dr. Holland is amazing! He is so encouraging and positive. The content he teaches is really interesting, and he is passionate about it. He gives us very clear directions for each assignment, and if your follow the directions, you will get an A. I never got bored in his class. Definitely take him!

Professor Holland was a great guy. Took time to make sure anyone's questions were answered. Gave clear descriptions of what he wanted on assignments. Teaches in ways younger students understand. Gives an index card that you can use during the quiz with any info you put on it. Lectures usually last 1-1.5 hrs. Only class I actually tried to show up.

I loved professor Holland! He is my favorite professor of this semester. He always talks about Taco Bell and crunch wrap supreme's. If I didn't have mono I would've had an A in this class, all you need to do is show up to class and follow the note guide and you'll get an A. The note guides are the most helpful things ever for a person with adhd!

Holland is super funny and gives little to know homework. To get a good grade you must actually be in class and pay some attention, but he wants you to get an A, so he basically walks you through everything. Exams and projects are easy. He is very passionate and cares about philosophy; if you like going to class and learning, choose Holland.

You NEED to show up to ALL the classes to get a good grade, only hw is online. If that doesnt matter, then Dr. Holland is amazing. Incredibly knowledgeable, super passionate and caring. Lectures are genuinely great, he knows what hes talking about. Very kind and funny. Dr. Holland is incredible and will make you fall in love with philosophy.

He is the best professor, I went into this class dreading it because I had no idea what to expect but he makes sure students feel cared about. He's quite funny and never keeps you in the whole class. My best professor at GCU so far!

Doctor Holland is a very nice guy and is very passionate about what he teaches. He tries to learn peoples names and connect with everyone. He is very strict about cellphones and gives paper notes (which are fill in the blank). He lets you bring an index card for quizzes/exams and a full sheet of paper of notes for the final exam. (No restrictions)

Dr. Holland is a great guy and truly wants his students to succeed. He is very straightforward and lectures the whole class, but I learned a lot from his teaching style.

Professor Holland was very clear about assignments and due dates. He does tend to lecture for the majority of every class but I didn't mind because he is very knowledgeable about what he is teaching. Would take his class again!

I loved this professor! He doesn't give much homework, and when he does it's easy. If he gives out “essays” they are more-so guided worksheets. He is lecture heavy and goes about an hour and fifteen, but he does a good job at keeping the lectures engaging. He respects his students and treats us as adults. Would definitely take his class again!

Even though Mr. Holland's class was difficult as long as you show up and are willing to learn something. I would say you can get at least B. He gives you note packets that are easy to follow and the "Essays" that are required for this course and broken down into a simple worksheets. Overall, a great professor.

Great guy, funny, lectures a lot, but interesting. Really cares about what he does. Not too much work pretty easy hw

Dr Holland was one of the best professors I have ever had. His lectures make you actually want to engage. His class makes you a more open minded person imo. He does have a strict cellphone policy, but it's honestly for the best and made me do way better in the class. if you have the chance to take his class, DO ITTTTTTTTT TT

Amazing professor for this course, really cares about the subject. Is super strict on phones but his lectures are so entertaining you don't need them. Attendance is necessary, he doesn't post his lectures online.

Dr Holland was one of the only professor I had this semester that wanted his students not just to consume information, but to truly learn. Prepare to examine your own worldview in a way you never have before, and ask hard questions that ultimately lead to a better understanding of your beliefs and how they align with reality. 10/10 would recommend!

Professor Holland is honestly one of the best professors I've ever had. Be prepared, because his lectures cover exactly what will be on the quizzes and exams. His class truly changed me for life, and you can tell how passionate he is about what he teaches. I definitely recommend taking his course.

Rich Holland was a great professor. Participation is HEAVILY weighted, and all assignments are done in class. You'll never work through Halo. He gives note packets to fill out that directly match the three tests each semester. Lectures are solid, but there's a lot of information, so I'd avoid the 7 am section if you can.

great guy. interesting class.
