Comment:

Dr. Keefer will seem like a cool guy at the beginning of the semester. However, he is not at all that. This class is basically an online class and the lectures are pointless because it's all information you have already read and taken quizzes on online. Also, his extra credit is to do things like blood tests and that's honestly absurd.

Comment:

Dr. Keefer was very easy to talk to. He made sure we always knew what we were doing and would answer any questions we had. Whenever I sent him an email, he would answer within a matter of minutes. He was very understanding and seemed to understand everything we had to say.

He is very rude and unhelpful. His lectures are not at all relevant and he often goes off on rants and tangents. I would strongly advice someone to not take a class with this professor.

Dr. Keefer is truly an amazig professor. He is so easy to listen to and really funny and personable. The class is extremely organized and he really wants you to do well. This class made me completely change my lifestyle and I am already feeling much more healthy. He is completely nonjudgmental and genuinely cares. Incredible amount of extra credit

Comment:

I took his stress management course and it was such a fun class. His expectations are clear and if you take his advice and put effort into the assignments, your life outside of the class will be much easier. If you take the assignments seriously your grades over all will improve and finals week will be a breeze. The semester with Keefer was great.

Currently taking his online wellness course and as long as you do the work it's a very easy A. lots of quick reads of article and some ted talks you have to watch. Easy enough. Gets back to you fairly quick.

Comment:

Keefer has such a smug personality. Most of his bonus point opportunities involve getting a blood test which is unreasonable. He takes this class way to seriously and is not very helpful if you need him outside of class. His quizzes are hard and there's tons of reading.

Good professor. Easy class but still makes you put in the work so you can learn. Probably not the easiest professor for wellness requirement, but he's a good guy who cares about his students learning. DO NOT be late, though - not even 1 minute. Seriously.

Comment:

Dr. Keefer is a straightforward and humorous professor. This is a required class, and I would highly recommend taking it from him. Gives quick e-mail responses and clear instructions. Didn't use a textbook for the winter course, not sure about regular semesters. Use the study guides and you'll do well on the tests.

If you still need to take a wellness class, take it with Dr. Keefer! The class has a reasonable workload. Grading is more than fair! Dr. Keefer gives plenty of extra credit opportunities throughout the year that guarantees you an A if you work for it. Quizzes are taken online with two attempts so don't be lazy! Plus Dr. Keefer's an awesome teacher!

Comment:

Dr. Keefer was a good prof! He was passionate about the subject and non-judgements like during our discussion times. Class was good - you need a clicker and he does a lot of D2L things! It's mostly busy work that isn't too difficult. I really learned a lot about how to be healthy!!

Comment:

There is a lot of work on D2L for this class and you have an opportunity to take every quiz twice. He's not judgmental if you are posting that your stress comes from an eating disorder he won't be weird and if you say you drink five drinks a night he won't judge you. Very chill and straight forward. Easy A as long as you show up and do the work.

Comment:

The class is average: more than a gym class, but less than a regular class. All of the things you need to know you will get online; with his monotone voice that still haunts my nightmares. He takes "wellness" way too seriously and loves himself. He will take every oppurtunity to talk about his own health. Hmph.

Analysis: Dr. Keefer is a quirky teacher. Generally helpful when you have a question. Don't bother turning in your assignments late though because he simply wont take them. Fair is fair, I guess. Everything you do (homework, projects) will be on D2L. His directions are pretty clear and he even gives you test hints. Study hard and you should do fine

Dr. Keefer is a very friendly, helpful professor who cares about his students. He's very funny and tries to make class interesting. Most of his class is online work but it's very straight forward and the information is easy to find. All you have to do is keep up with the work and deadlines and you're golden for this class.

Comment:

His class is very hard. There were weekly assigments and weekly quizes that were not bad but the weekly presentations that are all online are hard to keep up with. His tests are too hard and there is too much information to remember for them. He gives a study guide, but you have to know hundreds of vocab word and the study guide is pointless.

I love Dr. Keefer. He is a very nice, interesting, funny guy. His class is pretty straight forward and the tests are really easy as long as you study a bit. He's very helpful both with questions about the material and questions about life in general. He's very easy to get along with and very approachable. I highly recommend him!!!
