Comment:

nice guy, very knowledgable. a bit boring when he lectures. the class was mostly presentations from the students, which i didnt like. and the quizzes were rediculous, you had to know the most mundane details that were barley brought up in class. but he does really know his stuff.

Comment:

I with agree what others have said but I just wanted to warn anyone thinking of taking one of Jolly's classes that he grades based on a series of very difficult quizzes. Be prepared to be tested on very specific and seldom-mentioned aspects of the course.

Comment:

Took him for Evo and Bio of Human Beh. and will take him for Living Primates... though he was old and always late and sometimes unclear, he knows his stuff and is genuinely a nice guy...just know the readings well and raise your hand and have something to say in class and he'll like you, but make sure you make sense because he doesn't like bull!

Comment:

Read the readings and you'll do fine.Knows his stuff.Approachable and friendly.Offers intersting courses outside of the intro to physical.Worth staying attentive during lectures for the small jokes and bits of cool information.

Engaging, thorough and approachable. Sent a personal email to me when I got an "A" in his course to "congratulate" me on my "excellent result" in his class. Can't beat that with a stick.
