Winter 2022 - This is my second time having Speer. His lectures are a bit dry, but he does really make the effort to ensure students understand what he is trying to teach. He's a nice, helpful professor. The lectures are very consistent. The tests were not overly difficult, but not exactly the best way to test theory (in my opinion). The readings were manageable, the homework was helpful in understanding the readings, and the structure of this class was consistent which was nice. I'd recommend Speer to other students, but I didn't find this class as engaging and interesting as I think it could have been. I loved 101 and was very excited for 102, but it was a bit boring.
