Professor Tomlin is an awesome guy! I really like the discussions for class and how he encourages topics for essays when asking for advice. 10/10 recommend! I had to put HIST 2301 - But I am taking Mexican American History and it is HIST 2327.

He gave us the freedom to choose our own topic and gave us plenty of time to complete the smartbooks. He taught the class well and made sure we understood the lecture and would use powerpoints which were very effective. I would definetly take another class with this professor as he made it easy for us to pass. I would recommend people take his clas

Mr. Tomlin is a great professor and makes the lectures very easy to follow. Attendance is not necessary, however when you attend in class he provides great feedback on assignments and provides library work days which give a great time period to work on your research paper and receive more feedback. He also provides many chances for extra credit.

Tomlin is one of the best teachers I've had. He cares about your actual learning, not just grades or academic bureaucracy. Gives you all the tools you need to grow as a writer and thinker. He's super understanding and easy to talk to. If you're trying, he'll work with you and help you figure things out without making you feel stressed or judged.

This professor was great, he uses loose dead lines which are very freeing and he's very understanding. The lectures aren't super interactive and can feel dry sometimes but the assignments are top notch. I thoroughly enjoyed this class.

I liked Professor Tomlin's course. He lays out all of the course material and assignments from day one with rubrics, so I knew how to do everything and had resources to help me as well. Professor Tomlin is very respectable, funny, sophisticated, and made solid connections with students. Thank you for a great experience within this course!
