Comment:
Dr. Van Auken is the reason I will become an ecologist. He expects alot from his students, but only because he wants the best for them. I would highly recommend taking any of his classes. He tests straight from the lecture slides and will be fair in his grading. He will remember your name so make sure to go to class!!!

Love this guy! He knows his plants and is very helpful. I have always loved plants but this professor made me love them even more. He is very knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor! Take his classes before he retires. Loved his fieldtrips too.

I honestly have no idea what people could not like about this professor. He is understanding, funny, and quite intelligent. He cares about his students, but he is bad with names so don't take it personally if he doesn't remember. I wish he taught more classes that I had to take! Take him soon by the way.... He has hinted that he might not be teaching for much longer.

Take his summer ecology trip, probably the best and most useful class I have ever had! Dr. VanA is an incredible professor and probably knows more about plants than, anyone. He's tough as nails, don't be intimidated by his awesomeness though, he's just a gentle plant loving mountain-man. Do study your stuff though, back and forth like a bible.

True about his way and a hard class, but if you study, a lot, you will do well. Helps to get to know him. Don't be intimidated, ask questions. You might learn something.

Amazing man, knows his stuff, if you listen and pay attention to what he has to say, you'll leave class with a much better understanding of whatever he's teaching - if i could i'd take VA for every class.

Misadvises students and gets them in trouble. Cares more about himself and his favorites than anyone else.
