Tim Juvshik
PHIL
I had a fun time with this class, and as far as the narrow subject matter is concerned I did learn a lot of new things. The issue with this class, however, is that Logic in and of itself feels extremely esoteric and unapplicable. If there was more debate or practical analysis then I would feel that I gained more from this class, but instead I've essentially gained no practical skill from the class. It's pretty clear that this is just a weird requirement for philosophy majors, and even the professor obviously has a passion that lies elsewhere. Its still kinda neat, and Prof Juvshik is funny, but if your hoping to really gain something from a class I wouldn't recommend.

I took this class not knowing what it was going to be about and I enjoyed the class overall. The work was difficult but not too hard to figure out if you put the time in. Professor did a great job keeping the class engaged and teaching the content.
Juvshik is generally a helpful and accommodating professor. Logic is a course where you either get it your you don't, and he always helped those who were falling behind a bit. Although the material is fast-paced, the course grading is quite fair as long as you keep up with concepts.
