Comment:

I would not recommend taking this course. He lectures the entire class, gives pop quizzes every other class, the tests are confusing, and the topics are not interesting.

Stapleton is easily one of the best professors at Loyola. He's super insightful and very interested in what he does. Funny and down to earth too. 'Pop quizzes' pretty often but if you do the reading their a breeze. Few tests and goes over everything that is going to be on them, study guides given. Overall amazing professor, you will learn SO much.

Absolutely awesome professor. If you like philosophy or are just interested in learning in depth he is your man. His analogies and examples clearly translate very difficult concepts. He's also really funny, I really looked forward to class.

One of my favorite professors. I honestly thought everything he did in class was just hilarious. Very smart man. He assigns reading quizzes, but they are not too bad just sparknote. I enjoyed class time because he makes everything interesting. A must take professor

Incredible course (must-take). Insightful guy. If you're actually in it for, you know, some learning, you can't ask for much more, IMHO.

Best Teacher Ive had at Loyola. Really Smart and understanding. Quizzes easy if yyou have the brain capacity to look at spark notes. Tests kinda tough if you didnt read spark notes or the book, but be good BSer Papers interesting and not too long.

Really nice guy. Class discussions are interesting if your willing to pay attention through some boring parts. Can get off topic sometimes but thats what makes the class enjoyable. The discussion goes wherever the class leads it. Good Course
