Comment:
I took his class when he was a visiting professor at George Washington Univ., probably in 1983. Several people make reference to his obsession with his mortality. When I had him as a professor, I think he was a preacher/pastor/something like that. He understood how science and life fit together. I did go on to medical school, never forgot him.

Comment:
Dr. Putnam is a strange lecturer. He is laidback, humorous, and consumed by his own mortality. If he finishes lecture early, he'll ramble on about life to kill time. He is a big kid and wants to leave class and lab as much as we do. He does want you to succeed tho and I learned SO MUCH. But warning, it is a ton of memorization and cramming.

Comment:
Dr. Putnam's strengths are definitely in his role as Premedical Advisor. His lectures are extremely disorganized, and trying to ascertain what he sees as important is like drawing names out of a hat. That said, he's a really nice guy and I love his stories, although he is obsessed with his own mortality. No lab reports. Only 4 grades for the class.

Dr. Putnam is a dirty old man but he's hilarious. you'll be writing as many quotes as notes, and if you do the work, you'll get a very good understanding of what's going on

Really nice, don't be intimidated by him just because he's the premed director. He'll expect you to work, but if you do your grade will show it.
