Comment:

Dr. Bulger is committed to ensuring success. He posts multiple quizzes and practice tests. If you go through them, there is no reason to not get an A in the class. Writing assignments are 350 words, less than a page on what you learned for the week. They aren't due every week. Excellent instructor, I would take from him again.

Comment:

Instructor is AMAZING and VERY dedicated. It's hard to come across such dedicated instructors - highly recommended. However, this class is totally pointless. You will love taking this course if you're someone who is interested in the humanities, but you won't enjoy it if you're someone who actually cares about what's going on in today's day in age.

An absolutely amazing experience to have learned from Professor Bulger. Kind, very fair and truly has an interest not only in you doing well, but in you maximizing the experience. The course work is demanding, but nothing worth having ever comes easy. I give Dr. Bulger the highest marks available as he is completely awesome!!!

Professor Bulger has designed this class so well. It is very organized and you always know what assignments are due for the week. It is a lot of reading and at times the reading is a bit hard to get through but it gets better as you get further into the material. For the first week or so I hated the class, but it was actually great!

Comment:

I really have a deeper perspective on life now than when I first started earlier this Summer. Also I did not realize that their was so much influence from Mill, Kant, Rawls etc, in virtually every facet of life; i.e. law, medicine, journalism, politics, even sports and media.

Comment:

I really enjoyed this class. I took it online during the summer and the material was engaging and interesting. The attempts to complete quizzes where unlimited and the tests came straight from the quizzes. You have to write 350 word essays pretty much about anything pertaining to the chapter. Dr. Bulger helped whenever needed as well.

This is an easy class. Stay caught up or be like me and do a ton of work in a few weeks. Whoever said you don't learn anything is an idiot. They didn't learn because they didn't care. If you actually read the book there is a ton of great insight and information. The reaction papers are a meager 350 words and you get leeway on topic. Good class!

Comment:

Took this class online, was able to finish maybe a month into the semester. It was easy enough to do, but also easy to space out right through it. The entire class consists of readings (optional for if you find them interesting) several quizzes per section, then about nine tests. Quizzes were unlimited attempts, tests were just quizzes combined.

You can take the quizzes as many times as you want and as long as you take the quizzes you will pass the test. The reflection papers that you write almost every week are the worst part, but it's still a pretty easy class.

Comment:

Philosophy 2050 would be a more difficult subject if not for Dr. Bulger's interpretation of famous philosophers. This makes the class easy. The only thing about the online class that is difficult is the amount of time spent on quizzes. There are a lot of quizzes that will take up your time.

Comment:

Dr. Bulger taught great content of his classes, his online assignments were very clear and precise. I learned a lot about ethics and philosophy, and I feel like I didn't even try that hard to get an A. When you can actually learn and don't have to bust your ass to do it, it means the professor did many things right.

Comment:

Easy class for an A. There is definitely a lot of busy work, but it's mindless. I did the entire class in a matter of weeks, and still got an A. You don't learn a dang thing however, so if you're actually interested in the course, take it from someone else.

I quite liked the setup of the class. You don't have to do anything by the specific deadlines, I did the entire course the last month of the semester. It is a true online course. All the tests including the final are done online from home. Fairly easy, requires reading but he prepares you well with practice tests for each test. Would recommend

Seriously one of the easiest classes I have ever taken. Learned a lot, but also finished early in the semester as well. You have to buy the books that he wrote to start the semester, but after that just read, take quizzes, write 3 paragraph response papers and take some exams. Take this class, easy A.

Comment:

Dr. Bulger was very helpful with any questions I had regarding the course. He also made the course interesting and had the writing assignments that really added value to the coursework. Through a given opportunity to just write and reflect about the weeks materials I feel I learned a lot more.
