Unfocused class. No clear outcomes. Not sure what we learned. Mostly that the field is bad at science

he's an idiot, expects his students to find time to take the tests out of class because he "doesnt have time" yet lets class out early nearly every class (IF hes the one teaching it)

Comment:
Um, he's listed as the prof for my class, but I have yet to see him teach one. His TAs do all the work but he gets paid for it. Not the most stand up character if you ask me. I can't even hunt him down to help me pick classes (as he's my advisor too). Overall a real egotistical jerk to the forensic students who don't kiss his @&&.

Ditto to the person below. Also his p.p.'s suck. Once you've seen one you've seen them all...forensics...archaeology...forensic archaeology...blah blah blah. Get off your high horse...

I have no idea what these people are talking about. Dirkmaat is the worst prof ever. Egotistical, malicious, and totally unorganized. Only cares about himself and does not give two @#$%s about the students. Misinformed aboutlot of things and will never admit when he's wrong. Misleads students about a lot of topics. AVOID this @&&hole.

Powerpoints- pretty much all the time. He's pretty straight-forward though. Occasionally has a bit of an ego- kinda his way or the highway, but he does definitely know his stuff and tries to accomodate students whenever possible.

He does love his powerpoints and most of the time he is very into his own thing and leaves the grad students to teach for him. But overall when he teaches you learn and he is hilarious in that strange way

What can I say he never teaches. And when he does it's limited to indulging his fat ego. He's pretty much the most worthless professor I have ever had. Favoritism runs rampant. He doesn't care for anything in physical anthro other than forensic, which is bull to begin with. Avoid mercyhurst/him

He does love those powerpoints, but he knows his stuff and respected and nown around the country for his work. How many other professors can say that?

Great at forensics, but teaching definately isn't his thing. Watch out for the powerpoints of death and a bit of an ego.
