Comment:

Gibler made what could have been a really boring class, interesting. He does insert his opinion into the lecture at times, but he doesn't try to hide it or present it as fact. Discussions were interesting as were lectures. He gives little to no guidance before the first test but it ended up being much easier than I expected. Take his class!

Just...simply...awesome. One of the best professors at UK, which is probably why he left. Kentucky sucks.

I had Dr. Gibler for two classes. While the books are dull, Dr. Gibler is an excellent teacher. If you have a problem, approach him. He's never been anything but helpful to me.

Comment:

The key to this class is reading the old tests which he posts on his website. My only real complaint is that there are no outlines or formal notes everything is just fly by the seat of his pants and then the tests dont always show what he talked about. Hes a good guy though, funny and knows his stuff. Hes definitely pretty cute too.

Comment:

Horrible on every level. Lectures are impossible to take notes on, no powerpoint or slides, tests were hard as hell. Classes are boring. I studied for 3 days for both the 1st and 2nd tests and got an E and a D. The "good students" that i know get Cs in his class. Thumbs down all the way around.

Comment:

This is a good class, especially because the professor is HOT! It's actually not fair that someone so good looking teaches undergraduate class (the whole student-teacher thing). I hope I can take more of his classes because I love staring at him.

Difficult at first, but read the book and you'll be fine. He's good at explaining the material in the book. Cute as well, in a smart geek sort of way. But he DEFINATELY knows what he is talking about.

His tests are hard but it's worth it because his lectures are so interesting and in the end you'll really feel like you've learned something.
