Professor Gallagher is one of the best Physics Professors at SUNY Oneonta. He is always available when you need help. He makes it all simple to understand. He is incredible when it comes to showing life time examples of the topic of that day's class.

Comment:

Thermodynamics was an incredibly interesting class. As always, Gallagher is a great professor. He really cares about his students and will bend over backwards for them. 2 Exams, a couple of quizzes, homework every week (which is good for you), and a Final Exam.

Comment:

I was so lucky to have gotten Quantum with Gallagher. If you can take it with Gallagher instead of Faux, DO IT! I got a 93 on his first exam and a 90 on the second exam. Gallagher also lets you correct the exams. Lots of Homework for this class. If you put the effort in, Gallagher will reward you. If you take Quantum with faux, sorry.

E&M with Gallagher will change your life! Awesome class! Really funny guy who understands that E&M is really hard. Gives a lot of homework but it pays off come exam time. Lots of partial credit too. If you get Gallagher, your life will never be the same!

Comment:

He's a cool, funny guy, but the work is friggin hard. Uses webassign for homework and quizzes; the quizs are cake, the homework assignments would take me hours sometimes. Tests are also really hard and no real effective way to study for em. Go to class and his office hours, he'll help you if you need it, and consider going to CADE for tutoring.

Comment:

AWESOME Professor! He does lots of demonstrations and examples in class, and is very good at explaining the material. Very helpful, if you don't understand something. I found his test to be pretty easy and straight forward. One of the best teachers I've had in my college career.

Gallagher is probably the best professor for physics in the school. He cares so much if you understand the material, and will try his hardest to help you. He is the man!

I took the into astronomy with him and I loved the class! He was a funny teacher and demonstrated his points in his slides with good examples. I already liked astro going in so I'm probly biased in saying I didn't find the class terribly hard

gives good notes with diagrams... but expects everyone to be a Physics major... tests are nothing like examples in class or homework... he gives good partial credit but this is still the most frustrating class i have ever taken

Comment:

He demonstrates the points very well, but on the other hand the material he teaches in class, is nothign like what is on the exams, The guy expects everyone in the room to be a physics major, when in reality we ARE NOT, honestly when I take one of his exams I get so frustrated that I just want to tear the exam apart, I go everday to preps. it sucks

It is a hard course because of the tests and everything else, the labs are ok ... study hard for the exams and study EVERYTHING because you never know what he's going to put on it.

Comment:

Red Sox fan. Better professor than i expected from reading the ratings. He's always willing to help you understand the material better if you go to him for help. But the material is not the easist.
