Comment:
He's a pretty good prof. Can print off his lectures and follow along in class. Sometimes it can be hard to stay awake...but maybe that's just because the subject is boring. He's helpful out of class. Study guides help a lot for the exams.

Almost all of his overheads came from pictures in the book. Most of the questions he put on the tests came from the help sessions, so if you attend the help sessions the tests are fairly easy.

I liked Porterfield, his tests were awesome bc they were all mulitple choice,you do need to study for them though. He also gives plenty of chances for xtra credit and you really learn too. Overall I thought the class was pretty easy.

This guy weirds me out for some reason. He is not that great of a teacher, and is way too excited about the littlest things. Take Mormile instead of him for Bio 110 if possible.
