Great prof but doesn't use technology. Go to class and hand in your assignment. He will not use blackboard or email. Fair in grading and makes class interesting.

Great professor! Not an easy class, but he makes it clear and easy to understand. You MUST go to class, miss a day and you will be lost. Does NOT use blackboard. Plenty of extra credit to pick up points missed in tests.

I've had a lot of teachers in my day but Greer beats them all. He's funny, controversial, incredibly good at teaching Statistics, and he gives way too much extra credit. GRCC will lose one of their best teachers when he retires in two years. I am going to miss him and all the lively students in the 2014 summer class. Take him. You won't regret it.

Prof. Greer is a very good instructor. I no way wanted to take this class and wasn't wanting to from what I had heard. His test are take home essays and don't be skimpy on them but if you read and just put down the info you will be good. he makes the class fun, especially if ya get him talking news. I'd recommend him

Seems like a nice guy, explains the subject well. The only annoying thing was he seemed extremely lazy with grading stuff. Wouldn't get tests back for over a week and he doesn't post grades on blackboard which is irritating .

Comment:

A very great teacher to take statistics with. The subject is hard, but he makes it clear as possible. Just read the book and examples, and you'll do just fine. He made my night class go by really quick, even if it's 3-hour long. Tests are 90% and homework is 10%. Gives out extra credits each week to be added to your homework.

Comment:

Don't miss class because you will regret it. He covers the material quick,but if you ask him to go over another problem he will. Test are 90% of grade and homework is 10%. He gives you a ton of opportunities for extra credit. If you get lower then a 75% he will let you fix the errors to achieve a 75%. He likes to joke, so have thick skin!

Not an "easy class" especially if you miss. He covers the material very quickly, doesn't review HW/Tests, and 5 tests consume 90% of your grade. He knows his material!

Greer is a nice guy, but can't control his class. People were allowed to talk and make rude comments to others students. He didn't explain the material well. Bottom line: Take MA 107 with another prof.!!!!

Greer was an AWESOME professor-extremely nice and helpful! Math is usually my worst subject and I dread going to it, but he did a great job of making a point to include everyone in the class and keep you from zoning out (: He always made sure everyone understood the material before moving on and accomodations for anyone&everyone he could!!!

Comment:

I used to hate math and Greer changed that! Great class, if you show up and do your homework, ask any questions you may have, you will get a good grade. He explains everything very well and is funny on top of that. Very nice guy, I hope to take him for stats.

If you don’t like having a good time while learning & you have absolutely no sense of Humor or offended easily this class is not for you! If you are looking to have a good time while learning take Greers class! I learned a lot about a subject I didn’t particularly care for and received test scores of 90% or above. Thanks Greer!

Comment:

Greer is an exceptional math teacher. He will not go easy on you. He will, however, PREPARE YOU FOR BATTLE! If you attend his classes, participate, take good notes (I recommend the LiveScribe pen) and do the homework for the sections, then there is no way to fail. Greer knows his stuff and he'll make sure you know yours as well! Thanks Greer!

Comment:

Greer is a wonderful professor. He is extremely funny and is very helpful. He always makes sure that everyone knows the material. He goes over what his tests are going to be on. However he does not grade homework or attendance--MAKE SURE YOU GO if you don't you will be lost. It is also helpful to do the homework. (:
