Average

Just be ready to be in a state of confusion at all times. No real direction is given to the course, so you're left there to teach yourself what to make of the often conflicting material. Not a hard class, it's just poorly structured, confusing, and you might just lose a few points due to a lack of instructions.

Poor

Professor Lathrop is really a nice guy and obviously knowledgeable about the material. However, he's not a good teacher. His lectures were dull and boring. Nobody ever knows what's going on in his classes. The way he explain things is like you are already a master in the field and it's not a fun time. It's not a hard class to pass. It's just that you will not learn much in his class.
