Comment:

A jokster that can't grade worth a dime! His lectures are filled with his corny jokes and he will deduct points for every tiny detail (though it varies from paper to paper). Avoid this man at all costs!

Go figure the ones complaining can't type their COMMENTS without errors! Poor little babies... Waaa! I have to do actual work! Waaa! I have to use proper grammar! Waaa! Good Lord. You are in COLLEGE! Suck it up or go get yourself a hat and start practicing "you want fries with that?" Maybe not a life changing class, but on par with what I expected for college work.

Comment:

Terrible Teacher. He swears he is teaching a three or 400 level class. The exams are extremely difficult. Its weird that everyone averaged a 56 on both exams. Of course there is no curve. Avoid this teacher at all costs.

The class is a complete bore, he rambles on and on and talks about stuff the is completely irrelavent. Avoid this class if you can. Tests are based almost entirely off the readings. Dont take this class.

very unhelpful, didnt announce exams or give exams about anything he taught. Class is very unclear and is not benenficial at all, you'd be wise to switch out immediately. no point of studying, you will not do well.

Comment:

Avoid this professor like the plague. Words can't express the pain and suffering I endured having him as a COMM212 professor. I watched himm fail students on the speeches right and left, while other TAs hand out A's. He also did not prepare you for the exams. Plain and simple - Do not take him!

Comment:

Very arrogant. Didn't really help students when approached. An EXTREMELY harsh grader who would be the only one laughing at his own jokes. Often complained about not having coffee or how his young children kept him up at night. His shoes made the most annoying sound I've ever heard!

Comment:

He wasn't as bad as everyone seems to be talking about him. If you show extra effort by using his office hours and going to the writing center, he'll notice and give you better grades. Only major complaint is that it takes FOREVER for him to grade anything. He should either quit using his kids as an excuse for everything or just stop reproducing

Comment:

If you think you can sail through this class because it's an intro level course, think again. Stiner is difficult and your essays have to be near perfection to get an A. If you take this class with this professor, become good friends with the Writing Center.

Comment:

Don't let the course description fool you, a video game course is supposed to be interesting right? I was falling asleep every class. Memorize bogus communication theories,Stiner knows nothing about video games(except maybe Doom), irrelevant projects, & your grade swings in the balance of group work and his subjective grading scale.

Comment:

Worst class I have every taken. This english class centered around communication rather than writting. 90% of your grade comes from presentations rather than writting. THe lectures were a joke there was no useful info in them. There was little help or emphasis on improving your writting.

Comment:

He's very anal. The exams are impossible. Tells you to study "broad concepts" and then tests you on the most trivial details. Lecture is fun but when the class average is a 70 for intro level comm, there's something wrong.

This Guy is pepped up on coffee at 8 AM and that is definitely wrong. He's got so much energy in his lectures, but apparently he uses that same energy to bash your essays. Well, the class is certainly manageable, but you definitely got to worry bout mistakes cause,he'll get you on every little thing

Class is a joke, and he is the only one laughing. May be a good com teacher, but as for english... not. SKIMS papers, does not read it all. Unfair paper grader. 5 points here and there, and you are at a C real quick. AVOID THIS ENGLISH CLASS AT ALL COSTS

Horrible. Grades WAY to hard for someone who came out of college not too long ago. He's anal, and arrogant, if you can avoid having him as a teacher-- I recommend you do so at all costs. Hardest E110 teacher.
