Geology is a very boring subject, but Eric Mattson tries his best to get you interested. You can tell that he is very passionate for geology and wants everybody else to be, too. That being said, you can only do so much to stay awake during a lecture about rocks.

Mattson can be a hard marker but that just means he wants his students to work hard as well. Nothing wrong with that! Plus, his lectures are some of the only ones ppl can stay awake in :)
