Awesome

Professor Ellison really just wanted to help, so if you ever need anything you really just need to ask. The entire syllabus needs to be read, there's extra credit in it. You can buy the book for free online. There weren't any tests, only one-page essays. The final was just two to three pages on whatever topic you wanted to choose from. The feedback was very useful, and the expectations are very clear. It was a very insightful class.
