Comment:

What a sweet, intelligent man! He cares about his work. He may go off on tangents but if you read the book and take good notes and attend the SI sessions you should be fine for exams. If you can get Kara Mjolhus for lab instructor, she's the best! Don't be fooled by his age, he has a memory of an elephant.

PALEONTOLOGY: I regret taking this class, I should've taken something else. This is class is boring, exams are hard, labs Dr Schultz expect you to do everything perfect. If you don't care about fossils, and all this stuff, do not take his class. You will regret

It can be a little hard to follow his train of thought in lecture, but you will get an A if you read the textbook.

Comment:

He is very nice, very old man. However, what he wants is about as clear as charcoal. If you are so lucky to receive a review for a test, then what he wants is clear. If not, write EVERYTHING he says. Even the seemingly useless stuff .

Comment:

Dr. Shultz is really passionate about geology and loves rocks. Going to class is mandatory, and if you take good notes and participate in the SI sessions, it is an easy A. Also, going to lab is crucial for your grade. He gives opportunities for extra credit. It takes some work, but the material is not hard and can be interesting at times.

Comment:

You have to go to class to pass the course. E does not go solely off of what's in the book but also what he has learned from time in the field. He is willing to work with you if you tell him what is going on. Like the others sai it is A LOT of memorizing. But other than that not too difficult of a class.

Comment:

This is an easy class, but if you get sick or need to make up a test you might as well forget about it. He does not allow any make up work and told those of us with the flu that if we wanted to take the test we would have to do it while we were sick.

Comment:

This class was really interesting. This is one of the easiest science courses I have ever taken. Alot of memorization, no formulas or math. The lab for this class is pretty easy too. Make sure to take plenty of notes. All you need for tests are the notes he provides.

Good professor but has a hard time keeping his class under control becuase he is hard of hearing. Lots of chit chat went on during his lectures.
