I would not say this class is an "easy" A, but I mean, as far as work load, yeah, it's pretty easy...I felt Thorpe graded a little hard, I mean out of 8 projects I received 4 B's and 4 A's, so pretty fair distribution...As far as Thorpe, the guy is awesome...I didn't find him hard to approach at all, and he was generally a very nice person...He makes class fun and he really takes to time to know and respect his students...Take Thorpe, you will not regret it

He really doesn't care if you go to class as long as you get your projects in on time. He does have a rather crude rough personality, and is somewhat difficult to approach. Class is easy- but if you're an art or hart history major, he will grade your work a lot harder.
