Comment:
Look, Dr. Cox is a good guy, but he's horrible in the Physics labs. He instructs his Lab Assistants to give nothing higher than an 89 or they are in trouble. This scares them (They are Indian) & makes them give C's to everyone in the lab, regardless of how good the report is. Everyone cheats in the lab, which is sad because some don't & still fail.

Comment:
Dr.Cox is one of those professors where you need to be SELF MOTIVATED to get anything out of his classes. Ex: if your new in physics he is the WORST choice for you but if your BATTLE HARDEN VETERAN in physics he is one of the best choices. My only problem was he doesn't assign enough homework and or grades them on time other than that he is good.

It would be nice if it were even possible to make an A. Never learned anything from him. Take Kinnison or Allison at least for a chance to learn physics. He does not give A's to anyone.

Comment:
This guy is amazingly smart...unfortunately class was a mountain to climb! They should require us to know a LOT more before going into his class. I was lost from day one - and I'm otherwise a straight-A student. I will say, he's so nice and helpful in his office. Avoid his class unless you're a physics major or great at physics - then he's great!

Comment:
Cox's PHYS 1305 is the best Physics class taught in the whole world. If you take that class you will never forget the fundamentals of physics and learn the art of problem solving. His quizzes test your basic skills. If you can get an A in Dr. Cox's class, you can safely assume that you are of Harvard and MIT calibre. His classes are boring though !

Comment:
I saw Cox for my lab PHYS 2125 instead of Kinnison. He was EXTREMELY helpful to me in understanding the labs and what I was supposed to do. Since seeing Cox for lab instruction, I have been getting A's on lab reports. Don't just listen to these other students' opinion. Investigate for yourselves. He was way more helpful and explicit than Kinnison.

he is extra ordinary but still wonder why he is here. he should not teach the student he should teach other of his level. he teach in high level high that other professors also felt hard to understand. i think he should retire from teaching life and start his own research(crazy) i suggest other not to take his class if u took my mistake drop it...

Comment:
Dr. Cox is the most boring human being on the planet. Plus he thinks he is like a super professor. He treats you like an idiot for not knowing something, but yet the purpose of college is to learn right? He is a really bad teacher, he babbles on and on about things that do not even have an consequence to the class. Avoid him at all costs. unless of course you want you head to implode after his first lecture........ What is he looking at when he looks up at the roof and moves his eyebrows anyway???

Comment:
Cox does not cover the book material. He frequently spends whole (hour and 15 min.) class periods on one problem. Purposely tries to confuse you on homework and tests. Only one guy got a B in the class, everyone else was lower; no A's.

If you have a brain, you will avoid this man. His ego is only outweighed by the weight of his cranium.
