Evan is one of the most caring professors Ive had at UC; he is extremely personable! His classes are lecture heavy guided notes, but he makes it enjoyable as you can clearly tell he is passionate about his subjects as well as his students. Tests are based on notes as well as a set of questions from the textbook. Very interesting class!

This was my second time taking professor Griffin and I always enjoy his class. Hes a respected, caring, and amazing professor. Always makes class entertaining and fun. He genuinely cares about the subject matter and his students, and is always there to help. People complain that his tests can be hard, but if you study for them you will be fine !

Theres a lot of material to learn but Evan makes sure you have a good understanding of the subject and is always willing to help you better understand during office hours, after class or before class. Hes very open and honest, he understands us students. He always tell us he loves us and makes a point to remember everyones name.

Comment:

Everybody seems to love "Uncle Evan". In my opinion, he wasn't the best. He is full of jokes and personal stories, but they tend to get overused and, at times, very annoying. His course packet is useful, but is fill-in-the-blank. I feel like a zombie filling it out, takes no effort. Acts like he is the wisest person to ever walk the earth.

Evan's a great prof and really cares about his students. Attendance is mandatory, but if you pay attention in class, it's easy to pass. He has 3 exams for Comm 1076, which are all out of the course packet he provides. In addition you have to buy the e-book and complete quizzes online. I'd 100% recommend him if you don't mind working hard for the A+

You can miss up to five of his classes, then he starts deducting points from your final grade. However, his lectures are awesome and precise. His class consists of attendance, two random collections of journals, quizzes from the textbook, and three exams (one of which is the final). If you know the course packet/show up to class the exams are easy.

Great guy! He truly cares about his students and makes wants success for everyone. If you need something, he'll be the first to do what he can to help you. His class was interesting and he has many funny stories. Lecture heavy. All in all I'm glad I took his class and would recommend him to everyone. Wish more professors cared as much as Evan does.

He's a great professor, has hilarious anecdotes and stories. While I dislike the course (Comm) and had to take it for Credit, he made this class interesting and if he taught non Comm classes, would definitely take him again. I think he allows up to 5 absences from class, so most people should be alright. Be ready to write a lot though.

One of my favorite professors! He really cares about seeing his students succeed, not just in class, but in life. I learned so much practical information from his Nonverbal Comm and Interpersonal Comm classes. Overall a great man and professor. His classes aren't easy A's, but very fair and straightforward if you just show up and do the work.
