This class was very fun and I enjoyed attending. Attendance is mandatory and counts towards your grade. The class is comprised of giving 3 speeches and a final at the end. The final is multiple choice with some short answer and is just based on presentations Prof Mclean gives in class and then posts online, so studying for it was easy. Overall, I think that this class really improved my public speaking skills, and I also learned a lot from listening to other speeches. I recommend if you are looking for a fun class to balance out more serious ones. Super easy A as long as you show up. Grading on the speeches is not too harsh and the Professor is understanding.

Really easy fun class. The professor is super sweet and gives lots of feedback which is super helpful. There was about 6 speeches that are all about 5-6 minutes and one final exam that was straightforward.

This class was literally the bane of my existence. I didn't use to mind public speaking UNTIL I took this class...now I hate it. We had to submit outlines of our speech before we performed them, and her comments were so subjective. She nitpicked the smallest details that she didn't like in our outlines then gave us awful scores.

The class itself was chill and the content was easy. The final exam was straightforward and she just repeated the same questions that were on the study guide.

Comms 1 is a great class otherwise, but please just take it with another professor if you can.
