Makes Comm110 bearable and is super easy to get along with. Just be creative with the class and speeches and you'll get an easy A. Also volunteer to give the first speeches, they get graded the easiest and usually at an A. No textbook needed.

Comment:
Wouldn't recommend him at all. His lectures were usually rambles and not at all related to the course material. Grades came from essays about relevant topics, but all the information had to come from outside sources because his lectures were pointless to attend. Wikipedia did the teaching for that class. Was also very vague on essay instructions.

Comment:
Took History Through Music with him. I am usually, always, an A student. Even requested to redo essays with EVEN more information but apparently nothing I gave him was good enough. He was never good with staying on topic and the class was useless but I had to take it for my major. Ruined my gpa for a useless class.

Having speech with Watson was...interesting to say the least. He made it comfortable to give speeches in that room, unlike some other speech instructors.

Comment:
Really undecisive about this guy. Helpful, but it seems like he plays favorites alot (pretty girls and outgoing guys). Very entertaining, but disrespectful to political beliefs, but i dont know if he realizes that he does it. So take his class with a grain of salt and be prepared for anything.

This professor doesn't have the time of day for you. Gives special treatment and grades to privileged students. Don't challenge him or you will be on the list for the rest of the class duration. Get on his good side you don't even need to do your assignments and you will get an A.

Rick Watson is one of the most open-minded, sharp witted professors on campus. He will stun you with his incisive jokes one moment, and amaze you with a speech on censorship the next. Reccommended to anyone who takes a different approach to learning.
