I actually did this with Sean Peters but wasn't an option when reviewing. He was great and very accomodating. His class was easy and very welcoming for me as a nonSTEM student. There were weekly open note quizzes that were pretty easy and there was some annotated reading outside of class. Otherwise, barely any work and prof is entertaining

Professor Jacobel clearly knows exactly what she is doing. She was able to answer any questions the class raised about the ocean, even when they weren't related to the day's lecture material. The class was not too difficult, and while the labs were mainly spreadsheet work, they were simple, well-explained, and never took more than the lab period to complete.
