Has retired but overall difficult professor. Curves tests but passing was a 30%, showing how difficult the tests were. Grades assignments as if you were a professional coder.

His classes are tough. Be prepared to work hard and spend more time studying the material than you might think. He is somewhat helpful at office hours. He is very good at replying to emails.

Comment:
Went from a B programmer to failing in his class despite working 5 hours a day, every day on assignments. He gets angry everybody doesn't have a masters in programming, and is horrible at explaining things and is exceptionally difficult to work with. Sterotypical math PHD professor. You decide if that's your thing or not.

Great Professor! Had him for Calc 1 and really enjoyed his class. Lectures were straightforward and informative, and he's very interested in making sure that every student understands the material. Best Math professor at UW-Whitewater.

Comment:
Assignments were WAY too complicated and long. This isnt the only class I was taking but it took up 95% of my studying/homework time. He doesnt seem to understand that students take more than one class at a time.

He is a bit goofy, but nice. If you go to class and pay attention he's not too bad.

He is very smart. Interested in seeing student succeed. Sometimes his comments at your wrong answers are not necessary. If you really want to learn mathematics and not just slide on through this prof is a must.

Comment:
The man is a genius, but some people are good at knowing things, but terrible at explaining it to others, he's one of them. He gets very upset if someone doesn't understand something. Likes to use snide commments to demoralize you on your intelligence.
