Comment:

One harsh man who will make students cry and wet their pants (plz prepare some kleenex). Avoid his class at all cost! Even if it means staying back an extra year! Duerden the burden marks without a guideline. Effort ≠ marks. Bring earplugs to prevent damage to ears from his deep booming voice (aka surround sound 12" subwoofer bass)!

He's one of the best profs in the geo program. He knows his stuff and challenges students, despite being a little rough around the edges.

Likes to intimidate people but is a nice guy deep deep down inside. He marks hard and sometimes marks seems arbitrary but he definately knows his material.

Good prof, you can do VERY well if you go to EVERY class and LISTEN. He doesnt teach hard things, but you have to listen to lectures, not a text book based course generally. Just stay awake you can do well.
