Browning is very rude in the way he speaks to students. He is unclear with directions because the instructions are in multiple places. He is unreasonable and unwilling.

Comment:

Nice person, class wasn't too bad for it being online. Final project was RIDICULOUS! I didn't like it at all. Too time consuming and too many parts!!! And he really didn't go over it too well. Picky grader, especially with papers. Some of the lectures are too long. Only a midterm and a final exam. Some of the homework assignments were hard.

Comment:

This was the first class that I genuinely enjoyed. Prof Browning wants everyone to pass and there is no reason not to. There are a lot of projects and assignments. He has put a lot of time and effort in his presentations and they are not boring. READ DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY. He cares about his students and he responds quickly to emails

Comment:

He was a nice person. Helpful. Don't expect it to be an extra easy course since it is theatre. There is some reading involved. Spark notes and Netflix is your best friend. Some of the movies are on Netflix and most of the readings are on sparknotes, which you should read the "easy to read" version.

He is very rude with his answers, both in email and on returned assignment. He also requires you to attend a weekly meeting via video chat, even though it is an online class. I did not enjoy this class what-so-ever.

Comment:

He makes you attend weekly lectures via video chat, even though it is an online class. He is very rude with comments on returned assignments, as well as when he responds to emails. Also many of his questions on the quizzes are very confusing.

Comment:

Bill is the CUTEST little man! He really loves theatre and you can tell. He's very knowledgeable on the subject and has a lot of experience. There are a bunch of assignments and projects that require a little effort, but if you do the work, it's a pretty easy A. He's really nice, helpful and totally understanding! Bill is awesome!

Comment:

Pop quizzes are somewhat bs. He's a nice guy. He really wants you to do well. He barely goes over how to do the final lighting project. However he gives you his phone number and is more than willing to meet with you to give you as much help as you need. This really made me respect the guy. For a 300 lvl breadth: at times annoying, but worth it.

Comment:

Such a cute little man - I want to adopt him into my family. I had a required fye class with him which basically is a garbage requirement but he tried to make it fun. His version of fun includes lots of theatre and arts though. Seems like a nice guy. If i ever had to take theatre I'd take a class with him

Comment:

He does his best at teaching to an entire class, which does get a little rough when we're at widely varying skill/knowledge levels. Pretty nice, but he does talk too much; and it gets monotonous. He does know his****, either way, and he teaches okay. He's also understanding when it comes to work calls for theatre.

Frustrating when a couple people already know everything and you don't, but the assignments and quizzes are pretty easy. Tough final project if you don't know what you're doing though.

Comment:

BORING!!!! talks way too much. The class could be completed in a week but he stretches it out with a bunch of nothing. He goes off on tangents that do not help you. If you can make it through the class and do all that he assigns you'll get an A.
