Dr. Connaughton really cares about the students in his class. He means business and you don't get a grade for nothing, but he also is very accessible and approachable if you're having difficulty understanding the topics.

Even though ecology is not the most interesting, he makes it fun because he has a very good sense of humor. He is VERY busy so don't be offended if he doesn't get back to you right away. Overall he is pretty awesome.

Comment:

I had Dr. C before and he was awesome, but after having him for this class I could not take another class with him. His test are VERY hard, all exams are 7 pages w/essays. Not only that, but he nitpicks for every question and most people do not do well because of that. He is willing to explain anything if you go for help and a great guy though

Comment:

Dr. C is such an amazing prof! His lectures sometimes go a bit fast but he posts his lecture notes and if you have questions he will make sure you get an appointment within the week. Given that he is the head of the dept he is extremely busy but always makes time for his students. You have to study hard for his exams, but you will learn a lot!

Incredible professor. One of the absolute best at WAC and he's the reason why I love Biology. He's always open to helping students and he can teach you how to effectively study. I will take any class with him that I possibly can.

One of the best classes I've ever taken. His powerpoints are great, he's very smart, explains everything in a way you can understand. He does challenge you & I feel he's an honest but tough grader . Minor flaw is sometimes TOO busy to help you right away & he does tend to teach a little fast. I can't wait for Ecology though!

he can teach and he is a good lab teacher, he always has funny concepts. it is just that some of the stuff he say is not clear, and he will try his best to explain it to you to the best of his ability, he has study sessions & office appointments for 1-1. he is a great professor, his class is just real hard
