Just roll the dice. One mentor is just as good as the other. Like most TESU classes, try not to get behind and put everything on the calendar.
SOS 110 is a cake walk class.

I was going to take them together but decided to take the cornerstone first. I have John Bradley and he is very nice I would recommend him I'm following this for suggestions for the capstone. I picked him because he didn't have Dr. or Prof. In his description so I thought he would be more laid back. I had a very scientific approach.

Check rate my professor for reviews. There was a guy I was going to take, but he had horrible reviews so I avoided that one. Not everyone is listed on there, but many are. Im in the Science Capstone side but I'm sure most of the BA names are on there too.

I had Hayden in the April2019 LIB-495. She was great, communication was easy and frequent. She was able to get more out of me than I thought possible. Highly recommend.

I had Dr Christine Hansen for the capstone and loved her.
I had Prof Heit for SOS-110 and disliked him. Nitpicky guy.

Highly recommended: Andrew McMurray for SOS-110

This is the best advice if you don't find something specific on here. Paper grading can be quite capricious so 'roll the dice' is a poor strategy. I had Duellberg for the cornerstone. She was great.

If one can't figure out the rubric and grading style of a professor in an online course, who no doubt ALSO has another full time job, how would one ever figure out how to be successful in employment?
Anyone can do anything for 12 weeks.

This is terrible advice, IMO. Not everyone is going to mesh well with every professor. There is nothing wrong with looking for a professor whose teaching style better meshes with your own wants/desires. Sure, anyone "can" do "anything" for 12 weeks but why add extra stress when it's unnecessary?
