Comment:

take this class, show up for attendance or find a friend who goes to sign you in,you will do nothing all semester and get an A, do not buy the textbook it is a waste, basically gives you the midterm and final, ridiculously easy. At the end he asks what grade you think you deserve, say A get an A - and thats it. great for GPA

Take this course and receive a easy 3 credits for it. Attendance is not mandatory. My class had 30 students and only 5 would show up each class. There is homework but its not even required. You basically make up your own grade

Really nice guy. Do all of the assignments and get respectable grades on exams and you will get an A. Communicate with him! To get an A simply do everything he asks you too do. He grades based off completion.

I'll make this real simple; take him. I don't know what everyone else thinks but if you are like me and want to do little work for a good grade then this is where you wanna be. NO ATTENDANCE POLICY. Skip the homework. Pick your own grade at the end of the course. Feed him a reason you deserve a B+ and you'll probably get one. I rarely went, 2 A-'s.

very very strange little man, hw=chapter summaries, the book is cheap but NOT an easy read, repeats himself constantly, multiple choice midterm/prefinal/final and an extra credit, curves and doesnt take attendance ever. if you cant take Riska, then take him.

Comment:

Doesn't take attendance, tells you straight up if you don't want to come to class don't come. Teaches the EXACT same things over and over and over so as long as you go to atleast 1/3 of the classes and write down everything he says you'll do just fine. Make sure you study yournotes because his tests are all 150 questions long, and they're not easy.

Comment:

What can you say about this class...you dont have to show up, if you do, do yourself a favor and bring a laptop, cuz he repeats himself and talks about sex too much. He's a genuinely nice guy, but his teaching is allover the place. This class is if you want an easy B or up. Tests are hard, but he asks what you want your final grade to be, GO NUTS.

This guy loves himself. Just ask him about Betty Lou!!He can talk. I walk in one rainy night and he was instructing to a EMPTY class. I sat there for the punishment. He can ramble for the whole 3hours. He knows his Philosophy. In his class you also learn about a new subject!! That is alot of PATIENCE. You can not fail his course pick your grade and

Yea you pick your grade essentially on the final, but you learn nothing. He is intolerable to listen to, and often rambles on about things which have no bearing what so ever.

Comment:

If you want an easy B or better take this class without ever going. If you want to actually learn and remember what you learned without being confused beyond belief dont take this class. He is confusing, and tends to rant on topics which have no bearing in the course...Sat there everyday and was bored senseless, to learn nothing, but got B and A-.

Comment:

i'd take delfino over him anyday... everyone says take him for an easy A, there was nothing easy about it. he is boring, his tests are hard, and he constantly talks about making love to his wife... he repeats his lessons for 3 days before going onto a new topic so you only have to go to his class once a week... hes kinda crazy... opt for delfino!
