Most Helpful Review
Professor Winter was a nice enough guy, even if he was totally full of himself, but this class was a disaster. Like people have said, despite what he claims there is definite favoritism for the athletes. Not only do they get their own review sessions, where it is rumored that they get all the answers, there have been times both explicitly and implicitly that extra credit opportunities have been presented only to athletes. The class itself was mostly entertaining, and the midterm was easy. However, the final turned out to be pretty hard. The real pain is that you have no idea what to study for. He gives no study guides and there is no textbook and most classes tend to consist of a string of bullshit with no uniting theme. I still don't know my grade so I can't say if it is an "easy A" but it is definitely a lot easier if you are an athlete. I would avoid this class if you can just because of the unpredictability of the tests and obvious favoritism.
