A decent prof. Things get tedious when he re-hashes the previous lecture, but at least the subject matter sticks. Not the most enthusiastic, but he obviously knew all there was to know about insects.

Comment:
This course isn't too hard. He's not really fond of "easy" questions directed to him...his body language pretty much says it all. Just get through the course and move on~. His lectures aren't interesting..for they occasionally nulled me to sleep!!!

Comment:
Beckenbach knows enough about genetics I suppose but he could not seem any less interested in the subject he chose as a profession. This guy seriously lacks teaching energy.

He's the worst prof I've ever had. He's unfriendly. He doesn't like to answer your questions. His notes are hard to understand. Textbook taught me the course.

He is good enough, but not the greatest. I have to go over his notes a couple of times before I can understand whats going on. He doesn't post notes beforehand so it is very writing intensive

I heard this guy was easy for bisc 202 so I thought it 302 would be easy as well. Boy was I wrong. Watch out for the lab work, there's numerous work and esp. a lot of fly counting. Watch out for the exam as well, some impt stuff not covered.
