Comment:
Extremely easy class. The only grades you have are 3 exams. The exams are VERY easy, most were just fill in the blanks with 2 possible answers. Only went to class once a week and got an A+. My recommendation for this class: buy the book, teach yourself, take the exams, and maybe go to class once a week just for entertainment :)

Comment:
Although he is adorable and gives you a good laugh while continuously pulling up his pants, I did NOT find him to be a good teacher! Mumbles, repeats nonsense, and explains none of the "key" words he writes on the board. You have no idea what to study. I have all As and have a B- so far in this class. Hopefully he can help me when I see him.

Comment:
I got a C in his class, but that's probably because I sat in the back every class and now regret doing so. Sit close to the front because you'll be able to understand him better. He's hard to follow at times but will repeat something if you ask him too. Tests are hard so make sure you study. A nice old man that will bend over backwards for students

Good professor. Entertaining and knows his stuff. Don't be disrespectful (pay attention) or he'll point you out in class.

great professor. repeats himself a lot and should have kept counter of how many times he said "any questions so far". makes jokes a lot and called my boyfriend who sat next to me a "man, ****, son of a ****, boy" in lecture one day. exams are hard, make sure you take lecture notes. class is definitely worth it.

He's very hard to follow at times and constantly messes up writing on the board. Attendance isn't mandatory and he ended class after only 25 minutes a lot which was really nice if it's your last class of the day. He really does care about his students though and will meet with you.

I absolutely loved this professor! He is so funny. As long as you go and take notes you'll pass. He mutters and go's "AHHHH!!!" a lot when he messes what he's writing on the board up. He calls sex "making whoopee", insists that girls cook for their boyfriends, and is never "being "facetious" as he often says when making any remark.

Such a great teacher. Not really hard to understand, I've had worse. He writes everything on the board (writing can me messy, but he'll write it again, and again lol). Always has jokes or stories to tell, more teachers should possess his personality!

Great Professor and guy. He has it all very personable and clear with a great sense of humor. Helped me out when I missed a test and he let me make it up which he ussually does not let students do. Sad to see him retire he was great.
