Great teacher!! He is very easy to understand and has a big curve in the end on your grade. Just go to class take notes and read text and you should do pretty well. Tests are little hard and require some heavy duty studying but overall not so bad.

I thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Cook -- I love that he doesn't use technology to teach, instead, he does it "the old fashion" way. He is entirely understanding of individual students. Just show up to class, make an effort, read a good portion of the book and you're on your way to an A.

Comment:
Attendance is not mandatory, but if you're noticeable, he will remember you and every time you did not come to class, which will affect your grade. He is a genius in Geology, but the tests are never on the most important points, so reading the book is necessary. They are multiple choice, though, and the final is made of questions from them.

Hes a great person but uses primitive teaching methods. As a freshman I have teachers who use powerpoints to help with what they are teaching but he just speaks the entire time. Take this as a MWF class or you will hate it.

He is horriable!!! Do not take him. All he cares about is getting people to change their major to geology. His tests are impossible!!!!!! He does curve final grades but not by much.

The material is boring, but he tries his best to make the class interesting. He doesn't curve tests but curves final averages. I should have ended up with a low B but he curved it to an A! He takes attendance everyday but it doesn't count for or against anything.

Dr. Cook was an AWESOME teacher! I advise anyone to just go talk to him. Even if it's not about class! He's one of the best teachers I've had, and mainly because he understands where students are coming from and where they need to be! I was struggling at the end and he helped me out TONS! I suggest you take him! GREAT GUY! War Eagle DOC! -16

I hated this class. This man was so hard. he never was clear what chapters the tests were on and if you went to talk to him he was extremely rude.Get a different teacher if you can, he makes this class way too hard.

Great Professor! Knows material extremely well. This class is not hard, just put forth a little effort in studying and you could make at least a C on each test. Hint: Know vocabulary and read between the lines test questions could be a little tricky. I am pulling an A in the class and that is without the curve. I highly recommend him. Good Luck

He is a hard teacher but geology itself is hard. You definitely have to study to do well on his class but he is very passionate about it and he will try his best to help you if you attend to class and show interest. He tells you what to study for the tests in class!!. I would definitely recomend him

Incrediably smart man. He lectures from memory every class. Its boring unless you are into rocks though. He will help you with anything you need. But, tests are really difficult, you have to know whats going on to even pass.

Went to class the first day. I asked him a question concerning a accomodation due to a disability. He was extremely rude about it and I dropped the class an hour later. P.S. There is a difference between being candid and having no consideration.
