Comment:

I took Warford Computer Science 330 class called Computer Systems. All the material for the class is recorded, so if you have an absence, you can watch recordings of the class. He does a great job of being available outside of class, and offers incentives for students willing to go above and beyond on final projects.

Warford is extremely clear and helpful in class. He moves slowly and is a fun lecturer. He's really excited about Formal Methods and it shows.

Comment:

Teaches theory because it is a *University*. You know... if you want really practical stuff they have places you can go to learn Excel & FrontPage. It's call ITT Tech.

Comment:

I agree with the comment that Dr. Warford does not teach material that can be implemented in the real world. He teaches far too many concepts and not enough implementation. In my senior year I started taking extra classes on the side in the Valley on Net

Comment:

Stan is a good teacher, provided he knows the material well enough to write a book on it. He lacks the vision needed to get the department where it needs to be. Should have tried harder to keep Dung Nguyen back in the 90's.

A really good teacher. He's not very charismatic, but he's very good at teaching the subject. The class was interesting, and challenging, but very possible to get an A if you work hard.

Comment:

This prof teaches only out of a textbook he wrote. He hasn't worked in the industry in over 15 years now, and it shows. The 400-level courses especially are geared for going into a teaching career, not a real life job. Ego-biased grading as well.
