To contrast previous posts. Best-Professor-Ever. I use design notes and various references supplied in his courses in my day to day life on the job. Can't say that about any other professor in my university career. Once you get into GGE 3022 and higher, this man is a professor that has amazing level of knowledge to pass along.

Comment:
The material covered in this class was very straightforward. However, Secord made it extremely difficult for no reason. It is apparent that he hates technology. He actually stopped his lecture and ran across the theater to yell at some kid who was playing on his laptop. It was a very funny freak out. I think he should quit. Seriously.

Not a good teacher. Dislikes students and shows it, no favrites, hates everyone equally. Did o.k. in the course, not that hard, but v.v. glad I never will have him again. Made me think about transfering out except other profs are good.

Comment:
Makes relatively easy concepts difficult by showing useless hard calculations. Not taking away from the fact that the guy is uber smart, but it makes him condescending at the same time. This class is the reason why I switched out of GGE into CE, and survey camp only reinforced that I dont want to look look at another effing theodolite again

Very boring & proud of it. Thinks he's a great intellect, but he's just weird. Putting in time until retirement & couldn't care less about the students or teaching. Wonder what lives in that disgusting beard.

Well in my opinion, James Secord, as an academic professor, should either take a class himself or just quit. There is no way in the world that man should be teaching. Sure he knows his stuff, but he cant teach it. I took a class on HOW to present, it was ENGG 1013, I think he should take it. And in closing, shave your beard for god's sake. Its gros

AWFUL with a capital A. Doesn't want to teach the material and won't! His section is the only hard aspect to GGE 1001 and you will pay for it! Not interested in helping you on the side either. Just sticks overheads with already completed calculations. Not helpful. I really hope he reads this. Although I think he lives in a cave.

I switched over to GGE from FE and this guy was not helpful as an advisor at all. Very impolite and was bothered every time i went to see him for help. If he has other business to do and doesn't want to help students, then he should quit as an academic advisor.
