Comment:
Talks. And talks. Gives long convoluted examples about his life. Doesn't follow the book, tells you that his final word is what is "right" for the exams. Also, exam questions can be subjective and debated in class, yeah... Grade based off 2 scaled exams, a paper & a presentation. I don't think his score on here is an accurate reflection.

Despite the good reviews, do not take this professor if you want to learn anything. He is a waste of time and money. He sits at the front and goes off on tangents about nonsense and barely gives any notes. You have 2 exams and one paper that determine your whole grade. He is a nice guy, but a terrible teacher. Please pick a different teacher.

Very easy class. Two take-home exams, and one oral presentation/paper. Tells a lot of stories, but very nice guy. Didn't learn much.

Class would frequently meet for 15 minutes, I'd be way less mad if it wasn't first thing in the morning and I came all the way to campus for it. Just a couple oral presentations and that's it

Great guy and professor. Class really isn't difficult. TAKE NOTES on his lectures, it will be your guide for the tests (take home midterm and final). Pretty interesting overall. Assigns one big paper for the end of the semester that he talks about in every single class. Helps you get your topic to a good point so you can get an A on the paper.

Very easy to understand. Taking him now for Interpersonal Comm. He makes you do a paper but he doesnt have to do it with no idea on how to do it instead he has multiple class discussions on what good topics could be. Only two exams the whole semester and they are take home. Do your work, perticipate and you'll pass. No need for book expect for exam

I had him for Interpersonal Rel. Very easy, take home tests are kind of funky. His lectures can be boring, but he is a nice person. He is very caring and easy to talk to.

I also had this professor for public speaking. if you show up to class and just listen to his lectures (which are very interesting)you will pass. To get an A, just do the work he assigns on time thoroughly. You only need the book for the midterm and final. Being in class helps you on a lot on the interpersonal exams. Public speaking from the book

Good teacher, but not good at all with grading... My grades were forgotten by teacher and I was given a C, when I looked at my papers I had a B... He told me he would change my grade and still hasn't to this day, don't depend on him, and KEEP ALL OF YOUR WORK!!!! Trust me you will need it....

I took him for RESEARCH and PUBLIC SPEAKING. Great guy, he tells a lot of stories. If you study what he tells you, the tests are easy. I think some took advantage because he didn't give a lot of notes.
