Comment:

He is a one of the best profs in comp sci who unfortunately does not teach many courses. He knows the subject and if you attend all his classes you will do good in the course. His notes were a bit disorganized in this course, and he has the habit of confusing people sometimes with jumping from topic to topic but all and all he delivers very well.

Great Prof. Knows what he's talking about. Controls the classroom very well, lets the students know he is the authority in the room and they are there to learn. Ryerson needs to hire more men like him.

Comment:

One of the only two profs at Ryerson that really made me want to come to class (the other being Quigley). He's extremely clear and to the point in his lectures, and does NOT take crap from people in his class (i.e. don't put your head on your desk). He is extremely personable and friendly in person, and goes out of his way to help you out.

Comment:

Prof. Nagendra is passionate about the quality of education that his students recieve. He puts tremendous effort and care into ensuring students understand course material. If you ask students to name the top 3 compsci profs, his name is *guaranteed* to be on the list from any student that's had him. Enough said.

THE professor to have. REALLY good lectures, answers questions clearly and to the point; his exams,tests, and some of the assignments are hard, but he DOES at least teach the material (which is more than I can say for 70%+ of other profs).

Comment:

Academically, he explains this course very well. A very good professor. Personally though, I don't like him. I don't like how he'll lecture you in class if you quietly take a 5 minute nap, or how he compares us to our counterparts at UofT. Who cares.
