Comment:

I took Prof Trimarco for both Logic and Ethics, and I must say that he is one of the best professors at MCC. I enjoyed the open discussions in his class, and even though attendance wasn't mandatory, I still went to every class. I highly recommend prof Trimarco.

Comment:

The best philosophy class I've ever taken! He really knows and loves the material. Class is a discussion- he really challenges his students. He is a self-proclaimed "easy grader." A great guy, he's really funny. You will understand and pass his midterm and final if you go to class. He does not take attendance, but you will still want to go to class

Comment:

I love him. Whoever said his jokes arent funny has a dry sence of humor. Hes hilarious, intelligent and a very fair grader. He knows how to teach and is passionate about logic. Loved him but i still hate logic. Take him if you want a kind hearted patient guy to teach you a difficult subject and make it easy.

Comment:

Easiest college course I have ever taken (and I don't go to MCC). He talks a lot, cracks some and some not so funny jokes, and will help you every time. Great grader. If I didn't take the final, I would've still gotten a C for the class haha. I definitely recommend him!

Comment:

he isn't a tough professor at all. The course info itself is what makes the class somewhat challenging. he really works with you though. We reviewed before the class on the test day. Only three test all semester. he makes really bad jokes, but thats why they are funny. definately recommend this course. BUT REMEMBER, ITS LOGIC, NO PLATO OR ETC.

Comment:

I took him my first semester in college and he was really nice! He's a bit boring (I had a three hour class though)...but he tells you what subjects are on the exam. No homework, no papers, just midterm/final. He likes when people talk and values opinions. I wish I could take more classes of his, because his classes are easy and somewhat fun!

Comment:

Prof Trimarco will talk during the entire class. Sometimes he is boring but most of the times he will make you think about the outside world. A tought grader, he only gives a few test during the semester (midterm and final exam). You have to take notes and read to pass his class, expecially read his notes.

Prof. Trimarco is very easy to get along with. He explains things well and keeps the class entertaining, which can not be an easy thing to do during a 3 hour Logic session.

Prof Trimarco is an awesome teacher. He can be really boring at times but does have the best interest of his students in mind. He is fair, moral, and a really good guy. I would recommend him to anyone. (BTW attendance is not mandatory)

Comment:

I found him pretty funny for an older man. He definitely blew the book out of the water when it came to material, the book was garbage its not worth buying. Go to class and listen and you should do fine. Its only boring if you make it that way

Comment:

we sat in class for near 3 hours and talked really randomly about things and every once in a while he would ask a philosophical question. the midterm and final were easy. he told us what would be on them, and mostly all you had to do was bone up a bit on the topic. class time not required.

Comment:

the most boring prof ever.. I took him as a summer class. I'm not too sure half the time where he starts and ends his topics. He goes off on tangents at the most randomest times. pretty easy tho. I didnt read anything and got an A- on the midterm.

Yea he is boring, but aren't most teachers? He is a very easy grader and explained material that was pretty complicated very well and clear. Only grading criteria he gave was a midterm and a final. Recommended!
