Comment:
Great prof, first term was killer, second about the same, final not much easier. I had fun in this class his method is good, he encourages questions at all times and rewards class attendance by telling what a nice exam question would be. This class is no joke if you don't study you will likely fail. Pretty funny guy always making jokes. I recommend

Comment:
Doesn't particularly treat students well. Reputedly treats them better once in the third or fourth year courses, but after the first year course, I was already quite discouraged from proceeding onto further courses with this guy.

D'Auria's tough, but its necessary to filter out the students who aren't willing to work hard in a first year class to avoid large class sizes in later courses.

Do not take ANY course with him! Teaching is not my job. It's a waste of time!
