Comment:

Great professor! He gets straight to point and not as strict as many of the other ratings suggest. Homework is easy and his instructions are pretty straight forward. I consider myself to be an average student and I passed his class. As long as you follow instructions, attend lecture frequently (he gives a schedule) and study, you'll be fine.

Fun and interesting class, taught very professionally. Brother Davis has much wisdom to share both about life and about the subject. Pretty work intensive though.

The best teacher I have ever had in my life. I could listen to this teacher for hours and not be bored. Really knows his stuff and loves to teach his students. I honestly wish that he could be my teacher for every subject. He is to the point and helps you learn material quickly. Love him so much!

Brother Davis is a great professor! He may seem really strict and touch, but he just wants students to succeed. If you show up late, do not expect to enter the class. He is funny, but also teaches all that he needs to. The class is what you make it.

Best professor I've had yet. He's funny but very opinionated. Don't be late he'll have you leave. Other than that, just show up and you'll pretty much pass. Lite on the homework. He saw me studying in the hall for a quiz in his class and ran through the terms with me. Never felt like a professor cared about me like that.

Brother Davis is an amazing teacher and a really good professor. Some cons is that he is very stubborn and only believes that his knowledge is the correct knowledge. His class had unreasonable high expectations. All of his grade was made up of memorization quizzes. The tests also included memorization and were 30% m/c and 70% written/spelling count

He knows a lot, but he seems to alter stories a little bit to fit his jokes. He's also a little bit all over the place. Entertaining, but it can get to be a bit much sometimes.

He knows his stuff very well and is an inspiring teacher. But if you want an A, dont take him. His exams are incredibly hard. One of them you have to memorize two whole soliliquies from Macbeth worth 6 points each and write them out word for word.

This class pretty much filled me with useless information. Bro Davis is very passionate about it so it is interesting to listen to him. His tests are very difficult. He does not give great feedback at all. I never had him say to me personally anything nice about my work. I did not feel uplifted with him as my teacher.

I love Brother Davis. I took HUM110 from him my first semester and was hooked, I knew this was the major I wanted to be in. I still go visit him in his office simply because I enjoy talking with him and hearing his ideas on things. One of my favorite teachers! Highly recommend him!

Bro. Davis is easily my favorite professor I've ever had. For his BOM class, I looked forward to going because he made it entertaining to learn about the stories. It changed my perspective on the book of mormon strictly on a scholarly level.

Brother Davis should retire. He wrecked my GPA over a dumb class. He quizzes you over information which isnt pertinent.

I enjoyed Bro. Davis immensely. He has great lectures but can repeat himself sometimes. Old school approach to learning; phones away or you will get booted. Lateness to class is not tolerated. I learned a lot from him. He is very funny and knows all sorts of random facts. I appreciate humanities because of him.
