Comment:
Stats at PSU now, I dreaded taking this class but he made it wonderful!! Take him, he's a great teacher, tells corny jokes but really wants you to learn. If you don't do the work, you won't do well but he gives you so many opportunities to succeed. Test are fairly hard but if you were in class and studied they aren't bad. Case studies helpful.

Comment:
Professor Adams is underrated. It seems to me that he has a first rate intellect and varied interests; I heard he's going into retirement and it would be a shame for a mediocre college like F&M to lose a professor like him. He also has a really kind heart, and an almost infinite reservoir of corny jokes to make you smile.

The class started out extremely easy, but then all of the sudden it got really hard, by then end of the class I had no idea of what I was doing. He's a nice professor though, not mean at all. He tries to help his students.

Did not know what the class was before taking it, now have a so-so understanding of Java. Very hard to comprehend if you have never taken comp sci before, but he is very good a supplying help on the homeworks and he is always readily available. tries to be funny. he is not, but good teacher, hard to get an A though

The previous rating was done by me also, this is an addendum to that. The class is easy the first half of the semester and then gets insanely hard halfway through. The only saving grace is that the tutors and Prof. Adams will help you write the programs so you can still get an A.

Tells a ton of crappy stories, Java is probably the most useless language to learn but lo and behold thats what you do. Easy class.

Adams is pretty laid back, but the class has absolutely no point unless your considering a major/minor in computer science. The class isnt exactly easy either, the programs are not very difficult but do take time to do.

Adams is chill, the class really has no purpose unless your considering a minor/major in computers, but it is pretty interesting none the less.
