Comment:

Nash is an amazing person bottom line. Unfortunately in my 1st year I found that many of the students were too dumb or too immature to see the value in his teaching. Many people like things explained to them so they can repeat it exactly, but he encourages creativity and personal reflection. If it weren't for Nash in 1st year, I wouldn't have ta

Comment:

Overall, he's a really good prof. Lots of people call him boring, but when he brings something interesting in (which he does sometimes - songs, artifacts, poetry) most of the class just talked through it. I don't think he's a good first year prof, because I don't think people are mature enough to appreciate what he teaches. Its beyond textbooks

Comment:

Well-prepared, fair, clear on course expectations, and a gifted performer. Roger's class improved as the term progressed; early on, some problems stimulating discussion, and, as the previous person noted, some singling out of students who questioned course content. But his dedication to lectures and timely feedback was appreciated.

Not a good class. Improvises until he's done, doesn't explain assignments, gives very poor feedback. Pretty nice guy but can be rude and singles students out.

Yahhh yahhh, He constantly repeats that. A very crazy individual, but interesting to listen to. Im interested in his readings but he grades papers like hes a english professor... for in class essays. Unfair i would say.

I'm pretty sure he's insane, and unclear on why they still let him teach. Honestly, this guy is just too nutty.

this is a joke, right? nash is a brilliant academic and witty poet, but a big mystery as a prof. he occasionally forgets to show up and sometimes lapses into monotone textbook readings in class while staring into space. undoubtedly smart, truly bizarr

This guy proves the Maclean's magazine is a crock. Everything about this guy is dull, and you don't learn a single thing. I still can't believe he's in Maclean's

Comment:

Booze is key when paying old Nashy a visit as his lectures are very boring and at times very tough to follow. He is very helpful, 1st plan got 50, then I talked to him and on the next plan my mark increased 20%. He takes attendance so twin the course.

His teaching made no sense, I brought an assignment to him and he said it was perfect and I was right on the money, got it back and he gave me a 40%.
