Comment:

Dr. Nosko is, by far, the best professor I have come across in my academic career. His passion and integrity shine through in his lectures. He really cares about his students and always makes time for them. He made me love ecology and helped focus the rest of my schooling. His tests are very fair. It is clear that he loves his career!

Great guy but terrible lectures and mating scheme. I think he marks tests based on how he is feeling that day. The tests are hard to study for.

I really appreciate that Dr. Nosko went to so much trouble to organize forestry field trips, a community service projects and encouraged us to participate in a forestry conference. More than your average prof.

Treats students like adults but expects them to behave like adults. Students who need to be spoonfeed don't always like this but I did. Great teacher who cares. I'm inspired to carry on in this field.

Genius. When you know a lot and convey it well it is easy to misunderstand that as arrogance. Some "kid students" should grow up.

Terrible teacher. Very very arrogant. Has a lot to learn when it comes to people skills. He is very useful behind the scenes...he has changed nip U's biology program into something impressive.
