His enthusiasm will rub off on you. Honestly, an amazing human being. Sometimes it's a bit overwhelming how excited he gets about science or R-Script, but man oh man, he really cares -- about students, science, and helping you to succeed. 10/10 would recommend.

Favorite professor at Kenyon. Very personable, incredibly knowledgable, always approachable, and very invested in helping his students. Can be a tough grader, but it's because he holds a high standard in order to improve students' understanding/performance. Also a funny guy.

Amazing professor. Incredibly helpful and goes out of his way to help students. Utilizes all his resources to keep your attention and make class interesting. Tests can be hard, but if you study and attempt an answer you can do well (you'll know more than you think.) I highly recommend taking a class from him.

Greastest bio teacher at Kenyon. Really exciiteable and enthusiastic. He will keep you awake and interetsed even at 8 AM. Do the reading and talk a lot in class for brownie points-class participation is always a HUGE part of the grade.

one of the best bio professors i've had. he makes the info really accesible to beginning bio students, but also goes in depth enough for majors. he gets chalk all over himself and his beloved turtlenecks. great guy.
