Comment:
Hands down the hardest and yet most rewarding class I've ever taken at W&L. Dr. Sukow is undoubtedly the physics department's strongest theorist. Unfortunately, he is very very strict. If you're one of those C-school majors going for the easy A, don't take this class. If you want to learn physics, take Dr. Sukow.

His tests aren't the easiest, but he is a very fair grader and is always there to help you out if you ask for it.

I will never recommend this professor to others. He cannot even teach and tries to be funny somehow but not funny at all. He does not require attendance but he wants to see you there. his lectures are useless. Everyone basically had to study from the textbook, not from the lecture. DONT TAKE HIS CLASS ITS HARD AND USELESS.

Fantastic professor. He knows what he is talking about and makes going to class extremely interesting, even for the most boring of topics. Funny guy as well, he's never at loss for puns for sure. Didn't had him for intro, but would recommend him to anyone. Gives lots of partial credit.

Awesome teacher, great at keeping a class engaged and interested in the material. Really knows his stuff, and always has a joke up his sleeve to keep class interesting. Beware, his tests are tougher than the other sections.

A fantastic professor whose skill at imparting comprehension unto his beloved students is matched only by his lightening-quick wit and jaw-dropping good looks.

It's a disgrace to our university that this man is still allowed to teach. I would do anything possible to never take one if his classes. If you're thinking about becoming a major in something he teaches, I'd consider switching majors.

Fantastic teacher for a not very interesting subject. He is very organized and his expectations are clear from day one of the class and his grading policies are very fair.

He loves science and he wants all of his students to love it too, and it's hard not to when he makes it so interesting. Not to mention his corny jokes and quirky way of relating to students makes his classes truly enjoyable. If you have to take a lab science, Astronomy is it.

Awesome, just awesome! I hate science but this guy makes it bareable because he's funny and extremely nice. Great teacher and you learn, too. Best teacher I've had at W&L, too bad I'm a C-school major. Bonus: on Halloween, he comes to class in costume
