Professor Porteous is clearly very passionate about this class, but he was incredibly unaccommodating of his students and any issues they had that hindered their performance on even one assignment. He also was not clear on what he expected from students, and handed out grades without any clarity on why he gave someone a specific grade. He quizzed us every class on readings we had, which was a horrible way to judge engagement. Overall, I would strongly discourage anyone from taking this class, because as soon as you feel like you're not caught up with the material, your grade will suffer immensely.
