King does the most. Your outlines have to be spot on to make a decent grade. Attendance is taken every class time. He is very serious. We had 2 tests, which are based off of the textbook, and 4 speeches. He doesn't care if you have stage fright and will take off if you don't meet the time limit or go over it. He takes off points for anything he can

King was not a great teacher. All we did were class activities which were easy and all participation. The tests are hard, you don't learn anything in class so you have to teach yourself with unhelpful study guides. You come to class to get points to bring up your grade participate in class and do the assignments.

Solid choice for public speaking. He takes off points for attendance, so make sure to go. Pretty good grading setup, lets you make up for one bad speech or outline. I made an A, but I went to class and prepared my speeches. He is a pretty nice guy and doesn't add any fluff to his assignments.

Really nice guy, doesn't give easy A's, but not a "tough grader". Tests are easy, you only have to memorize definitions and you'll get an A. So glad I took this professor!

This class is an easy A, as long as you go to class and do all your speeches, you'll be fine. He is very helpful and really cares. His test are an Easy A, if you study the vocab from the textbook.

Easy A. Study definitions in the workbook, since a lot of test material comes out of there. If you prepare at all for the speeches you will make an A on it. Lectures can be dry.

I took Intercultural Communications. The class is fun and interesting, but the tests are near impossible. Hardest of my college career ok? And thats me being honest as an B-C student. The only class I EVER failed was this one. All I can say is study yourself to death if you want to pass. And don't take this class with a full load...

Dr. King has a sense of humor and is easy to talk to. Int'cult' comm is interesting. But his tests were very hard. Many times there were questions not listed on the review...that he swears by. Read the book, do the reviews, talk to him. I made a C (blah) but I deserved an B or better. Especially on the Culture Pjct. Show up everyday = EXTRA PTS!!

You have to go to class because he takes attendance, but thats pretty much the only bad thing about the class. He lectures with slides that are super easy to understand and he gives great study guides for the tests. There are pop quizes but theyre not hard. Hes kinda rude, but if you just kinda avoid Him and study :P its easy. I made an easy A.

He is a excellent teacher. You must pay attention in class because the things he goes over, are the things that's gone be on the test.

His dry sense of humor comes off as rude ALOT! Class was miserable just because no one really wanted to be there. Test were a little difficult but not too bad if you studied reviews.

He is very hard. Likes to pile work on all at ne time. We had one 6 page essay and one 8 page essay due within days of each other. Nice guy, but seriously needs to ease up a little bit.
