Professor Bryan is a great teacher! He has a ton of experience in the advertising and journalism world and loves to teach others. Very relaxed class atmosphere and there is a good amount of class discussion. He is very willing to help when you need it! Take this professor!!

Very nice. Loves to talk to you one-on-one. Will keep in touch with you outside of class if you you want it. No need to buy the book. Extremely easy with pretty much all group assignments (because, as he says, Advertising is rarely done one-on-one unless you're freelance).

Comment:

Professor Bryan is extremely lazy and unclear on class expectations. He expects students to keep the class discussion moving and just reads off the powerpoints. I got an A but didn't learn anything. Don't take him.

Seriously, Bryan is the nicest, coolest, most understanding prof I've ever had!! Attendance isn't really mandatory and he accepts assignments whenever. He's so laidback and refreshing. It's so nice to have a prof that isn't so harsh with everything. He's awesome!!! It made me want to go to go to class. Don't bother buying the book!!

Craig Bryan is the man. Couldn't care less if you care about class or show up, in facts expects you won't. He is so funny and has great stories, but honestly didn't learn too much besides the same thing we ALWAYS did...write a news story. I thought his "projects" were fun...they took like 10 mins max and were entertaining. No need for books.

Great guy, very easy going and understanding. I didn't learn a whole lot from him. He was teaching media writing but his heart is in advertisement. Wish he would have pushed us a little bit harder.

He is a very nice and funny guy. Honestly I didn't learn a whole lot in this class. Just goes over grammer rules and so forth. He is a very easy grader. He knows a lot more about advertising then he does about media writing. I think most people would like him.

This class is a waste of time and money. You don't learn a thing about copywriting. Craig's a great guy but a poor professor.

A nice guy who really enjoys advertising and all that goes into it. However, his assignments are pointless and you come away from class like you wasted your time.

LOVED HIM! He was not only the easiest prof I have had, he was the nicest and funniest. The best professor I have had at St. Thomas, I thought the class was geared more toward advertising majors than journalism, but it was great all the same.

Prof. Bryan is really cool. You can tell that he enjoys teaching, and is very encouraging. No power points or other boring stuff, just a lot of real world experience. Also a liberal grader for everything, easy tests. TAKE HIM FOR 110!

Sweet Prof!! He was so much fun and perfect for Advertising majors forced to take this print journalism crap. He is an advertising guy and brings great speakers from the Ad world like creative directors and admin. Advertising majors take this class!!!
