How tough is it here?

<p>Take:
Kant taught by Burge (people generally really like his class from what i’ve heard although it’s really hard)
Normative Ethics (Lying and Promising) taught by Shiffrin
Hsu’s Skepticism and Rationality class is pretty nice, and Hsu’s a good lectuerer.</p>

<p>Worth it if you like metaphysics/Phil. of Language (avoid if you don’t):
127A with Martin (vagueness)
127C with Kaplan/almog (Naming and Necessity)
127A/B with Kaplan (Frege/Russell respectively.)</p>

<p>Avoid:
100A with McPartland (think he was adjunct so he shouldn’t be back but he was a total Dbag.)
100B with Copenhaver (general consensus that his lecture style was very boring)
Julius (He lectures by reading off of a handout he passes out at the beginning of class. For me, personally, he’s really hard to follow because of that. Although he does assign good readings.)</p>

<p>as far as TAs go, i really like Andrew Jewell and Paul Daniell. The only TA i’ve had that i didn’t really like was Brian Hutler. But overall, the department’s pretty good.</p>
