Spring 2024 - Brubaker is a great professor, just don't take this class if you're taking it as an easy GE. I took it because it is a requirement for soc majors and I got a 99% even though I was stressing the whole quarter after he told us the class tends to be a B average. You definitely do have to put in some work for this class to get an A but it really is nothing crazy if you understand the material. You NEED to pay attention in lecture and do the readings, however, or it will become too much to catch up on before tests. This class is not a super easy A but it is really nothing crazy. The class is genuinely very interesting and I learned a lot, and you can tell Brubaker is very passionate about what he teaches.

Professor Brubaker is a highly intelligent and excellent professor who gets very enthusiastic about his lectures. His enthusiasm allows him to better explain philosophers and to allow the students to grasp main ideas. Although his tests are a little difficult and require much reading, the class was worth it. Just study off the reading questions and the test will be easy.Especially for the final Exam make sure that you go to the Final review because although they dont directly tell you whats going to be on the final, whatever they mention is mostlikely to be in the final.However, I have to warn you- there's a lot of writing and reading. Overall, I enjoyed the class and highly recommend it.
