Comment:

Very nice prof, but very difficult to understand and doesn't explain concepts very well ....assignments do not prepare you for tests of exams, thought his midterm and exam was not fair with what we were taught ...on the plus side he was always willing to help with problems even if you couldnt understand him

Comment:

I think the rumours about Tess influence people's opinions before class even begins. He's somewhat difficult to understand, but he's always willing to meet with students to help and asks fair questions on tests

Comment:

Tess...well, I didn't understand a word he said, and only tried one lab. Was failing the course but since we were allowed to take in 1 sheet of paper to the exam...I wrote EVERY example on it that could possibly be asked on the exam. Went into the exam needing a 75% just to pass...came out with a 51%. Never learned a bloody thing.

Prior to taking Statistics, I was warned that he was the devil re-incarnated. I later found out that he had changed that year. The rumor is that he was offered ten-year, with conditions (either change or your gone).

Comment:

I thought this was a very difficult class, but I found that it made me work very hard and as a result, I understood the material. I wasn't able to coast by and do nothing like I could in other classes. I transferred to a different university and this class helped me deal with more advanced coures.

He is very hard but I went to grad school after at a different university and I was one of the best prepared students in my department. Hard but he teaches you what you need to know. I did not appericate what I was learning till I hit grad school.

A really ineffective prof that destroys student interest in a very important course, esp. at the undergrad level. Having had 3 courses from him, I still know very little about stats.
