Comment:

He's really boring and just sits down and talks about himself and how to get a job. I feel like his lectures have nothing to do with the class. He never gives A so be prepared for a B. Grading goes off of a midterm and two group presentations based on the textbook readings. He gives the test questions before the test. Pretty easy just super boring.

He's a nice guy and tries to help his students as much as he can. my only problem with his class was that he played too many outdated dull videos about i-o psych

Comment:

Do not take this class!! All the previous comments are completely true. He only talks about himself. He makes a point of your attendance but in the end says you don't get graded on it. I am an "A" Honors student and he gave me a B. Your grade is based on the group grade from your group presentation. No text/hw/tests but boring!and you learn nothing

Comment:

I was worried about some of the comments made below, however i liked this professor. Class was extremely easy. All you had to do was attend and participate in the group activities. No TESTS, NO PAPERS! The only work we had to do was a group presentation.If you presented your topic clearly, didn't read slides,and showed creativity, then you're good.

Comment:

This was by far the most boring class ever. He purposely grades you lower if you are too smart because a professor in his past did that to him. If you have to take him, then enjoy the way he keeps telling the same stories over and over for thirteen weeks. It pays to be a dumbass in his class so that he can feel like he "taught you something."

Comment:

This quote is as true as the sky is above us. "Waste of time! Wont learn anything in his class. Does not teach anything! Instead talks about how rich his businss made him. Very unclear grader, and not a good teacher at all. Psychology majors should avoid this man".

Comment:

He is a sweet man who DOES PLAY FAVORITES. Get on his good side, and do minimal work, and there is no reason to worry. He curves test grades so nobody in the class has a failing test grade. Someone got a 50 and ended up with a C-. He does BRAG a ton, but everybody has their faults.

He only gave one final paper, which was pretty easy, but I still got a B- somehow. If your not one of his favorites your screwed.

Comment:

He's a sweet, old man.I like how old-fashioned he is,despite his comment about alternative healing.It's easy to get an A with some effort. His anecdotes make sense; he can be relatable;and yes, he is a braggart about money but that's his insecurity because he didn't always have it.

Comment:

He is a nice man. We had no tests, but starting spring '05 he wll be giving them based on the book (get an old edition if you can, they're really cheap).One final paper, 5 pages on 3 topics you learned. Don't miss more than one class, don't be late.
