  You learn how to write stories for the radio pretty much in JOUR 203, so Richard gets straight to the point and makes you break into groups to broadcast news segments on KCPR. If anything he teaches what SOTs and VOs are. The segments are five minutes, so you have to work together to break up the duration of each story. The best part is, Richard doesn't tell you what to do. He hands you the CD for your SOT and VO's.

  I LOVED Professor Gearhart! He made this class so much better than it probably is otherwise. He is really funny and laid back! There is a lot of work for this class, but nothing that is too difficult. You have to make a video, poster advertisement, midterm, final, creating and maintaining a blog and other miscellaneous assignments. He gives you tons of in-class time to work on and finish the assignments. Even if you have no ag background, he makes you feel comfortable. Great class mostly because of the great professor!

  A great teacher who is willing to help you out as long as you ASK FOR IT! Not going to baby you but will definitely work with you when trying to get accomodated with routines at Cal Poly as well as helping you better understand the subject he teaches. Very fun and enthusiastic, definitely a teacher you will want to go to class for!

  Gearhart is amazing. He is hilarious and loves to use his hilarious stories to teach us things and give us advice. This is an intro class, but if you have the opprotunity to take any of his other classes, you definently should.

  Gearhart is an amazing teacher and the class was very relevant to what was going on in the world but incorporated history at the same time. We did most of our tests online, including our final. We had a few quizzes on the readings online also and had to write a historical paper about an older relative who we had to interview about their life and how they used media. We also took a trip to Hearst Castle to learn about William Randolph Hearst and yellow journalism--we did not have to pay for anything, not even transportation. I would recommend this class to everyone, even non-journalism students. It will make you more aware of the world you live in.
