Comment:
I took this guy for logic 101, I think it was called way back in the early 80's...I think 1982. He could not relate to us..I believe he's a Harvard grad and he was smart, but he had no relational skills. I felt sorry for him.

Its all about the Journals and understanding. If you just pay attention read along in the books its a great class, he has interesting thigns to say about the philosophers and their ideas, however he has little time for idiots, it pretty funny to watch him make fun of them

Comment:
eh..he was an alright teacher. to do good in the class you basically have to attend every day. but his lectures got kinda boting cuz he just walks back and forth writing and erasing...and sometimes he made students feel stupid if they answered wrong. but he is retiring i believe so no worries..

He is easy teacher. I got A- even if I don't attend the cl**** so much. I like him and if you stay focused on cl****, it is less boring than you thought.

Comment:
It's fun to watch the chalk accumulate on his pants throughout class... but that's about it. Burkholder's extremely boring, but Intro To Logic is by far the easiest class I've ever had in my life. I did not attend / pay attention in class consistently, read from the book a few times, and got an A.

Comment:
Probably the most pointless class I've ever taken, but if you're looking for an easy class, go for this. For some reason, some students had a tough time, but I literally showed up to class less than once a week, read the book a bit, and got out of there with a B+.

This class is easy, but very boring. He is an easy grader. He is the only teacher I have ever heard of that gave a student an F-. If you find lawn gnomes sexy then this class is for you.

Comment:
Dr. Burkholder is a professor for independent students, who are willing to bother to work and are not illiterate. His classes are very easy and all that it takes to get an A is to put some thought into the assignments. Attendance are optional; just be sure to get the due dates for assignments.

great prof, funny, well funny ifyour not one of the stupid students who can't grasp whats being covered in class, his only problem is that he needs to tell some students to shut up, because they drone on and on about something that isn't relevant

Explained himself well. I didn't like the course. Homework everyday, but you didn't have to turn it in.

Drones on and on about nothing. Repeats himself incessantly and says pointless things like "I'm going to erase the board now, since it will be advantageous for more problems."
