Comment:

This guy is a horrible teacher and horrible individual. Caught up in his own ego and what seems to be a need to make you look foolish by tossing around big words. While others have said he is smart, this only appears to be so by using various architects and architectural jargon where ever he can just so you perceive him as being knowledgable.

This **** is the only reason i left WIT. Every girl transferred classes exept me. I got D's for doing the same work as all the other students, better than some kids in the other classes.

Comment:

not teaching because he's playing the father role to his child at the moment. very intelligent and refined - the fact that he studied under Hejduk at Cooper Union really says alot about his approach, skill, and rigor. probably one of the most influential professors I've had.

Comment:

Best professor I have ever have in design. He has been the person who has most influence my career. Nevertheless, you should love the arts, be creative...and push conceptual work. Can't go the easy way with him...you got to read!
