Fall 2019 - Professor Hiltunen is hands down an amazing professor. He is extremely helpful and sincerely cares about his student's learning, and really works hard to make sure you understand the material. Office hours were quite engaging and he would work one on one to explain big concepts in Hobbes along with aiding in giving genuine help in papers. Also he is super witty and always makes funny comments to keep you entertained. The material is intriguing but gets a bit slow/boring at times, but I felt I did take in a lot from this course. I highly reccomend taking a class with him
