Comment:
It's a painful class to be in - He should have retired about 10 years ago. He's very slow with how he organizes his class, does lectures and generally moves. Therefore a lot of time in class is waiting for him get ready to start to teach. He does however have a sense of humor - but his lectures and jokes are hard to hear with his bubbling voice

Comment:
Horrible ecology class. Horrible. Talks for two weeks about DNA and RNA and then his explanation of taxonomy is to just list a bunch of animals. Briefly covers ecology to then jump into atomic structure for about a week because he thinks you can't understand nuclear pollution without it. Worthless and a bummer 'cause i wanted to learn ecology.

Comment:
The class itself isn't worth mentioning - 8th grade science all over again, dumbed down for stoned art students. But the man is hysterical. "All right sports fans", is one of his constant lines. Plus the usual baiting of religious people and vegetarians. Not a bad way to spend the last class of the day, and earn an easy 2 credits.

He's a hilarious old man, when you can get past how dull class lectures can get at times. And he scales test scores so thats ALWAYS good.

Comment:
Trys to be shocking with comments like "There is no god but science" While is catch phrases are endearing they just make you loose more respect for him. Are you with me sportsfans? After you hear that 50ty times in one class you're done list

Knowledgable and interesting. Ask him questions; you can easily get him off-topic . He keeps a lecture class interesting by using interesting examples and his own cache of catch phrases. Tune in next week for the next thrilling installment!
