He was my prof in the late seventies. Was so entertaining that I remember more from his classes than any other in my undergraduate studies. Brilliant.

Fifteen years later and I remember him and the lessons he taught better than any other professor. He is multi-dimensional and wicked smart. I'm a very successful entrepreneur and have qualified for Mensa and would readily admit that I'm a bozo next to him.

Comment:

He is hilarious- I highly recommend him just for the experience. He tells it like it is. I remember one time he told me I would look better if I wore a little makeup and stopped wearing baggy sweatshirts- that kind of hurt my feelings, I mean what do you want at 9 am? But he is very funny, knowledgeable, and challenging.

Human Sexuality was awesome!He is a great professor! Great lecturer and if you don;t learna thinkg from him it's because you didn't go to class. Nonetheless, he's retured so if you never had him you crtainly missed out. He will be missed at the U of M -D- tests are hard and grade determined how well or bad you do on them. he loves the ladies!

Stern is an amazing lecturer, you will never get bored! I loved going to his class because I learned so much every time. His exams are hard because the essay questions are...random? Just memoriza all your notes and the chapters and you'll be fine!

I took 2 of Stern's classes back to back...I probably shouldn't have...but enjoyed the classes nonetheless. One of the best profs i've ever had. Fantastic lecturer. I learned so much, so so much. Requires 3 exams, all essay. Must memorize, word for word his notes, plus lots of reading. But all ends up being a ton of info you'll remember and use.

WONDERFUL teacher! I stayed after quite a bit just to talk to him because he is very knowledgeable and freakin hilarious. this is his last semester- im sad to see him go. he is a very difficult grader, but its easy to impress him - if you improve dramatically, you've basically scored an a. i got a 72, 74, and 92 on the 3 and got an A+ overall.

Be there for every class and read the book for an A. Tests are on his lecture and a couple from the book. 5 questions, 20 points each. 3 total exams. You must know his exact language from lecture. He is a tough grader. Best lecturer I've ever known though.

Comment:

he was great, his lectures were great too. However the tests are one sheet with one liners requesting definitions or the meaning of the word. He does not go into great detail but if you went to class there should be no problem. Read the book & notes! he's fair! His last semester in Winter 08! take him!

In response to the comment below me: obviously, if you don't take notes, read the book, or attend class, you're going to do bad. period. that's regardless of what class you take. I think professor Stern is excellent! I love his classes!

i go to Ann Arbor during the year but live in Dearborn. I took both of Stern's classes this the summer because my friends said he was good. They're wrong, He's great! I learned sooo much and he made me laugh. I worked hard for my grades but he was fair. A must prof

Great class. Biology is not my favorite subject and although I didn't understand the subject much the class was still fun and interesting. Memorize your note and read the required chapters and you will do fine. only 2 tests, all essay.

Comment:

Stern is an awesome Prof. His tests are insanely hard, especially the first one. Take very good notes and memorize them, look over the chapter review at the end of each chapter, and read the boxes whenever they appear in the textbook and you should do fine on his tests. Also make sure you write your answers in bullet form he loves it.

Comment:

He is the most straight forward professor here and I love it. He is by far my most favorite teacher. He is a somewhat tough grader and a little rough around the edges but if you go and talk with him he is completely willing to help you out! Class consists of 3 tests - that's it, so you have to do good on all of them.

Comment:

At first, you may say he is crazy or not interested. However, he is great! He loves what he teaches, and he is very interested in helping interesting students. One advice: when he says you don't need to be scare of his test, do not believe him. You should study a lot because his tests are hard.Good luck and have fun because his class is unique!
