Awesome prof, so much fun, stories made me understand the material. If you wrote a bad comment here it is probably because you failed his course! Everyone should take his class, he cares about his students and you can tell he loves to teach. WARNING if you want to pass.. know the text book and go to class!

Thank goodness he is retiring. He is so pompous and thinks he knows it all. Good riddance!

Comment:

This class was one of the most enjoyable and interesting I've taken at the UofA. Dr. Hunter is a 'colourful' character to say the least! Only problem - I would have like to have seen the answer key to the final as in a class of 400 with an astronomical avg. highest mark was a 93? He messed up the 1st midterm key which is why I'm worrying. Stupid A-

Hunter is a great prof and he makes the lectures really interesting. The exams can be a bit tricky cuz you don't know what in the textbook you will need to know. Too bad he is retiring.

Too bad he is retiring, he is a great professor, lectures we fun and interesting! Only drawback is since is easy material, the average is high, and this course is curved. I'd definitely recommend the course.

Comment:

This class was so fun! His exams were really easy which is bad since the avereages were really high. But, his stories were great, the class always ended early, we watched movies, and overall, this was an amazing elective and I'm glad I chose it! He's retiring I heard though... (Dr. Davies is great too - probably will take over for this course).

He is a great prof. His exams are a little difficult but nothing out of the blue. He has great stories and is never boring. Definitely should be taken by everyone. :)

His class was very fun and interesting. Knew people's names and was generally really nice. Wonderful stories in class and very relevant to the topics he was talking about. Enjoy!

Comment:

I loved coming to this class because he had the best stories. However, only after the final did I realize how high the class average was and did a lot worse than I expected as a result. I even emailed him after the midterm to ask him where I stand in the class and he had nothing to tell me!

Comment:

This guy has a huge ego. He ends up being the centre of every story he tells. Poor choice in textbook. Overall a boring class. If you are really interested in learning about drugs, a much better class to take is Botany 380.

If I wanted to spend $500 to listen to some guy tell us his personal experiences, I would have bought a plane ticket to Chicago and attended Oprah's show!
