Would take again

Quiz every week but he gives you the quiz with exact questions to print 3 days prior to quiz . 6 page term paper n he will give you 3 topics to choose from. He don't want to hear excuses about being late on quiz's or paper so be sure to get it done .i was a nervous wreck for this class but passed with an 86 average (B) would take again.

I would definitely recommend taking his classes. I loved Professor Domingo! I am not a geography student, but he always makes the lectures very interesting. His work is very reasonable. Just a weekly quiz and a paper at the end of the semester. He cares a lot about the subject and about his students.
