Comment:

Don is super easy going as a professor. You could not show up and still pass the class. As for tests, they are all super hard and just about everyone fails. The good thing is that he curves everything so you can fail every test and still get an A in the class. Projects can be difficult but he is very helpful if you go to office hours. Recommend.

He's very knowledgeable. Gives you most of the code you need in lecture. Projects are essentially the examples from class except more applied. Tests are fair.

Comment:

Allison is a great professor when it comes to CSCI 116 & 216, but not so much with higher level courses. He's very unorganized, but he does know what he's talking about. He usually tries to make sure you don't fail, but if you don't hand it anything obviously you'll fail. He's extremely nice and pretty funny. Definitely better than most professors.

Really nice guy very helpful if you need it but its all tutorials directly following the text book. the book you use is also written in procedure format so you just do what is in bold. the class itself was very easy. If you plan on not going to class make sure you at least go when you are doing the ACCESS unit!! (recommended)

Comment:

CSCI 100 is an easy class if you put in the work. Every class is either working on the tutorials from the text book or taking a test. He himself will literally teach NOTHING. But the material is easy so if your'e self motivated its an easy A

Very good teacher. The subject matter is difficult, but he will help you no matter how long it takes. He even stayed in the lab with my partner and I for 5 hours. If you need computer courses, take them with him.

Don knows his stuff! If you miss any class you will have a tough time doing the projects. You don't need the book, he doesn't reference it at all and its quite confusing when your having trouble.

I've had this man for CSCI 203, 243, and 310. He is awesome and is always willing to help or to chat it up with you about the latest video game. Best CSCI professor on campus by far. His tests are hard, but if you try hard and know your stuff, you will pass.
