Comment:

IT IS NOT A 3 HR CLASS, so don't shy away. At most, we stayed for 90 mins. Not too much note taking, a lot of clip watching. Some quizzes, open book. Some are just writing your feelings about prompt. NO exams. One short 500-word essay in the end. DONE.

Comment:

Professor Zimbler is understanding, I missed a quiz during class due to a conflict and he allowed me to email him my answer for the quiz. Lowest possible grade in the class was a B. We watched shows and took small quizzes on them. The final project was a 500 word essay. Overall very easy gen ed.

Comment:

He doesn't take attendance but the class is an easy A if you just show up. Only a few quizzes and all the material is talked about in class. There was one 500 word paper that is only really graded for completion.

Best Professor ever, if you need A. We only had 13 classes in Fall semester, and 2 of them were canceled. Only quizzes matter, but they are as EZ as drinking a cup of ice tea. No HWs, No Projects, No exams, No Papers. The only thing you need for this course is attendance. Just be there once per week, and make life easier for yourself!

Comment:

Very chill dude. I had him for an inart class too and he was so laidback. You just have to write down all he sayswrites on the board (or just get it from someone else). He's not super boring either. Didn't take attendance. Final paper was just to review a show and idt he even graded it or the last test. I missed some quizzes and still got an A

There are quizzes every class, but they are pretty easy if you attended the previous class. He is very easy going and helps you if you really need an A. Watched a lot of shows in class and there is a 700 word research paper. Interesting and easy!

Love this class. Harry is awesome and has a really laid back approach. You need to go to class because there are no exams only quizzes and he doesn't tell you when they will be. The quizzes aren't hard at all though because they are just on tv shows you watched in class. If you don't mind going to class TAKE THIS its so so easy and pretty fun.

Useless class. Pointless. Professor never gave clear instructions and guess what, he once said he "lost" the exams. I got an A- but still regret taking this useless class.

Comment:

This class is extremely easy, most of the time he talks about what his life was like back when he was an actor and director which can be pretty funny. Class usually doesn't last as long as it says it will. He curves everything so no one gets a C or below. Overall it's a really easy Gen Ed and you should probably take it for an easy A.

Comment:

This guy is a boss. He even stated during our class that most of us were taking it as an elective, and he didn't want to mess up our GPA. Anything he writes on the board is free game for a quiz but that is it. If it isn't on the board it isn't gonna be on the quiz.

Harry is a rare breed of man/professor, and he is a well traveled, well informed professor.. His life inside his field alone is enough to attend the class, and if you want to learn true history of the screen and stage take his course..

Great teacher I would recommend him fully Got an a in the class just for showing up every class. Even though it says 3 hours he is usually done within 2 and that includes a break in between. Dont buy the textbook because it is a waste of money
