You're grade is based on 3 tests and a group project. Study for the tests and do well and you will do fine in this class. The lectures are very interesting.

Comment:

Total Grade is composed of 3 Exams @ 30%/each, and 1 Group Presentation @ 10%. No homework, only lectures. Be attentive to the case studies, they're challenging to differentiate from one another. Good professor but I wouldn't take again only because his method doesn't match with my learning style. However he's very knowledgeable about subject.

The man, the myth, the legend. Simply the greatest professor to ever walk the face of the earth. Never had a professor who is so knowledgeable in his field. I took SF 320, 330, 350, and 375 with him and got A's in all of them and would take them again if I could. Again the man, the myth, the legend.

Phenomenal instructor, mentor, and man. Off the chart intelligence but all of it is practical. If you are going to take a safety class for any reason make sure you get one with Waldock.

Great professor--really knows his stuff. Fun guy in general to be around. Get him to talk about an accident, any accident, because he is a great true-story teller. Somehow he doesn't even need his notes to teach! Study for the tests and you'll do fine, besides having loads of fun. Best class I've taken an Riddle.

Crash Fire Rescue -- three things Waldock loves, espc. Fire. Fun class, you learn a lot of good stuff. The exams are not too hard if you study and read the book...if not a "C" is easy to get. Do well and wont have to take the final.

2 words...THE MAN. HE will write you recommendation letters if he knows you, and those carry WEIGHT. His tests are all on lecture material, but thats all the class is, so its somewhat easy and straight forward. If he lets his hair get crazy or has facial hair, you know its been a good semester. THE MAN

Difficult class if you are like me and do not take notes. I suggest a voice recorder, it helped me a lot. Excellent Prof! Incredible knowledge-base. Very easy to talk to and very helpful.

Talks way fast, but always good stuff to talk about. Easy to stay awake, he's funny, class is fun. Test questions require that you really know your notes. Oh yes, the guy really does know everything about everything in airplanes.
