GE Cluster 21A Prof. Hunt is a great instructor! She is incredibly smart and enjoys talking with students every day about anything and everything. She likes getting to know students and like helping them with questions and concerns they have. Her lectures are well thought out and very good. She has a lot of knowledge and knows what she is talking about when she lectures. She is also very funny and helps keep the lectures fun. She is a great duo with Prof. Jacobs and I definitely recommend the GE Cluster with her. As long as you're keeping up with the reading and understanding the main ideas that go with each philosopher, you'll do fine in this class.

GE Cluster 21A Prof. Jacobs is incredible. She is incredibly nice and open and loves talking and engaging with students, both in and out of lecture. She is very, very smart and knows what she is talking about. Prof. Jacobs is not difficult. While the readings can be difficult, many times will Prof. Jacobs clarify all the confusion about it in lecture so that the philosophers are much easier to understand. She is a wonderful teacher to have with Prof. Hunt for the GE Cluster.

Von Glahn is an allright kind of guy. Of course you have to watch out for your TA because mine was a real nut. I thin that Von Glahn keeps it short and sweet in his lectures but tends to go off topic. Try to go to class because his slides are not the material he wants you to know they are just catalysts for conversation.
