Comment:
Mr. Marchin is a character. He's quite ornery at times and I think it's funny! He falls asleep in the back of the classroom all the time! haha he's hilarious if u have a sense of humor. But I would not recommend him if you're looking to have a prof who helps u learn the material.

Dr. Marchin is a very interesting teacher, and his lectures are enjoyable. He is also a very fair teacher. His tests, however, are extremely difficult, so be prepared.

Comment:
Dr. Marchin was almost as bad at teaching this class as he was at teaching Pathogenic Micro. It's sad, because he's a really nice guy, but just one of the worst teachers I've ever encountered. The class was quite easy, because his exams were open book and open notes, but it was also a waste of time.

Comment:
He is a great guy out of class. I asked him when he covered a question from an exam and he said that we never did. He like to ask very random questions that he knows you wont know how to answer. Although he did curve a 60% got me a B.

Include some "easy" questions on the tests to help students show that they studied even if they don't know all the trivia...

Very knowledgeable. He expects you to know everything, and then synthesize. Unique teaching style is tough on the modern day gen-y student, but good practice for grad school.

Comment:
I agree with the person below. Marchin is a great guy, but probably the worst teacher I've ever had. His notes are full of these random little factoids, which he expects you to know, and he never explains concepts clearly. It's almost as if he expects you to know the material without teaching it.

Comment:
Great, funny human being. Definetely would like to have a beer with him to hear him lecture. However, his tests focus heavily on random, tangeant aspects of the class as opposed to the most imporant material. Of the notes he provides, perhaps 1/2 the tests is represented, and 1/2 made up.
