Opinion: 1306 - Professor Flinn is one of the nicest people I have ever met. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about the field of anthropology. The coursework consists of around 10 quizzes throughout the semester and three book reviews. The book reviews aren't really reviews, they are just very short and very easy quizzes that ask very broad questions about the book, so I just looked up book summaries for them because I did not have the time to read them through completely. During class, we mostly watch documentary films and listened to his comments on them. You do need to pay attention to some of the documentaries, as some of the quizzes have questions about specific films we watched in class. Most of the films are available online for free through Alexander Street. Overall, this class is very easy to manage, I but the bare minimum into most of my work and I have a 96% right now (though he still needs to grade a few things). I highly recommend taking Professor Flinn, he is such a treasure! - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1300 - If you want a distinctive classroom experience, rather than just an easy core course, Jug's section will scratch that itch. He combines diplomacy simulations with propaganda group analysis in class to make the 75 mins seem like 45. We just finished the last one, and all four were fun (TBH I was in the winning group 2/3 times, but if you have a good group, a great time if you have a good group but don't win). He can talk fast, but posts slides and can be pretty funny in his lectures. 4 announced quizzes, one paper, 4 short responses, and a final, along with the simulations. He knows so much about European history, I might take another class just for more simulations and to ask him more questions about Germany. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: CHE 2416 - This course has taken an interesting turn from when it used to be taught. It appears that the chemistry department, after increasing the credit hours, had Dr. Mansell incorporate more exams and assignments into the overall grade. While Dr. Mansell is a good overall teacher and is willing to help with all assignments and lab reports, the big lab report at the end is not my favorite. This course is structured in an unusual way, with lab reports accounting for 40% of the grade (approximately one figure assignment every two weeks), 20 of the grade coming from exams, and the remaining 40%. I found this course to be somewhat frustrating, which had nothing to do with Dr. Mansell himself, but more with the course content, as I'm not sure why this course is taught. If you are a chemistry or biochemistry major, you will have to take it, and since there is usually only 1 section per semester, you're going to be making your schedule around this course. Overall, such a bizarre course; this is kind of all over the place, but Dr. Mansell is kind and is always willing to help. The exams aren't too difficult either if you put in work to understand how to use the equations (which can be confusing at first) - Grade In Class:B

Opinion: PHY 1420 - Dr. Fier is an awesome professor who puts in the time to help us understand all of the simple physics concepts and equations! His physics teaching abilities are definitely up there with all of the STEM greats here at Baylor. Homework load is light, but as with any intro physics course, you will need to do those practice problems to do well on exams. My grade was only because of my own situations and had nothing to do with his teaching, but overall a great class! - Grade In Class:C+

Opinion: FRE 2310 - Dr. Collins is one of my favorite professors of all time. After reading some of the reviews, people seem to complain about the flipped classroom model. While there is an in-class quiz at the beginning of most classes when you go over a new concept or conjugation, she explains it very well, and there are so many of these quizzes throughout the semester, and they are worth so little overall that it's not a huge issue. At the 2310 level, the French is challenging, as it is expected that you are able to hold a basic conversation (as she will teach the majority of the class in French, unless the class is severely struggling with a concept), but she wants you to succeed, and always is willing to help when struggling. I love how Dr. Collins formats the class, because at this level, we need to understand how to go through different points of learning a language. There are short in class essays (3 in the semester), homework due most class times, a short quiz most days, culture quizzes, chapter quizzes (think exam), and then a written and oral portion for both the midterms and the final. Whilie I understand this sounds like a lot she allows revisions for the culture quizzes, chapter quizzes, essays, and homework to get a ton of points back. She wants you to succeed, and does NOT want you to leave the course feeling defeated. If you need that 3rd semester of French, please let it be Dr. Collins! - Grade In Class:B

Opinion: Bio 1305 - Do not take this class! He is a nice guy, but I value a good teacher over personality. His tests are all application based. I could study for two weeks and still do terrible. On top of that, he gives about three readings a week which are several pages long and don\'t go over the unit in an organized way. His whole lecture is completely disorganized, and he goes on several tangents in one 50 minute class. There is also no SI and no one knows how to tutor this class because the textbook is completely different than other classes. - Grade In Class:B

Opinion: MGT4320 - I am honestly shocked to see lower ratings for this class, but it seems that Dr. Meyer has changed the structure of the class since then. This is my personal favorite class I've ever taken at Baylor. The structure of the class is amazing as there are no quizzes and no exams. You do a simulation and then talk about it the next day, with a short reflection due on Sundays. These simulations are not graded based on performance like some of the other sections, so the class is very low stress. There are also a few papers throughout the course that are also very low stress in my opinion. I personally think Dr. Meyer is an amazing professor, and from what I have experienced and by reading past reviews, he listens to his students and actively tries to improve the course each semester. I have learned more in this class than most at Baylor and it has been a great experience overall. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: RECOVERY OF LOST DIGITAL - Earlier this year, I made a mistake that changed everything. I downloaded what I thought was a legitimate trading app I’d found through a Telegram channel. At first, everything looked real until I tried to withdraw. My entire investment vanished into a bot account, and that’s when the truth hit me: I had been scammed. I can’t describe the feeling. It was as if the ground dropped out from under me. I blamed myself. I felt stupid, ashamed, helpless every painful emotion at once. For a while, I couldn’t even talk about it. I thought no one would understand. But then I got connected to the best female expert AGENT Jasmine Lopez,,( RECOVERYFUNDPROVIDER@GMAIL.COM ) ,She didn’t brush me off or judge me. She took my fear seriously. She followed leads I didn’t even know existed, and identified multiple off-chain indicators and wallet clusters linked to the scammer network, she helped me understand what had truly happened behind the scenes. For the first time since everything fell apart, I felt hope. Hearing that other people students, parents, hardworking people had been targeted the same way made me realize I wasn’t alone. What happened to us wasn’t stupidity. It was a coordinated attack. We were prey in a system built to deceive. And somehow, through all the chaos, Agent Jasmine stepped in and shined a light into the darkest moment of my life. I’m still healing from the experience. It changed me. But it also reminded me that even when you think you’re at the end, sometimes a lifeline appears where you least expect it.

Opinion: 1310 - If you ever wondered what it would be like to have a college professor who looks like he stepped straight out of every inspirational-comedian-history-buff movie you’ve ever seen, allow me to introduce you to Professor Brent Nessler—the most goated REL professor Baylor has ever produced. First off: class vibes immaculate. Lectures? Yeah, they can get a little sleepy during content-heavy stuff, but that’s just college. It builds character. But Nessler makes up for it because the man drops study aids so powerful they should honestly be classified as academic steroids. He gives them two weeks ahead, you glance at it, and suddenly you’re pulling 95s on every test like it’s light work. Tests? • ~40 multiple-choice questions • Bonus at the end • Untimed • Most of the class escapes in 15 minutes • Literally the easiest A you’ll ever earn for just showing up No curve needed when the whole room is speedrunning the exam like it’s Mario Kart. Homework? He doesn’t know her. Quizzes? Open. Book. Weekly reflections? Low-key hard to ace but still lighter than a Chick-fil-A fry basket. And listen… the dude himself? LEGENDARY. He cancels class like a hero when life calls. He responds to emails like he’s waiting by the keyboard. He loves questions, genuinely wants to know his students, and somehow manages to make even the spicy parts of the Bible unexpectedly hilarious. When Scripture goes PG-13+? Nessler goes full stand-up comedian. If you're a freshman taking REL 1310 or 1350, do yourself a favor: TAKE NESSLER. He teaches things other religion profs wouldn’t dream of and makes it actually enjoyable—even when you walked in thinking it’d be mid. This man is the academic equivalent of a cheat code. A cinematic icon in human form. The professor every college show tries to imitate but fails. Highly, HIGHLY recommend. - Grade In Class:A
