Literally, go to class and you will get an A. Everything is already set up as long as you just do it. No textbook or anything. Mr. Burke is really nice the class was something I just wanted to get over with but he had some pretty interesting stories to tell us so it made the time pass. He's the best of all the CSCI bc the others are just students

Comment:

Took online (A). He's very nice and works with you if you ask. Replies to questions in 24 hours. Just pay attention to the material he gives you and be very careful when doing assignments. Learned all you need to know for the future. Videos-a little boring. There's music in the background of some of them that's distracting. Otherwise, he's great.

Sam is very funny, keeps you interested, tells silly stories that are somehow relevant to the subject, and keeps you from falling asleep. I loved his class, and he was very cheerful and delightful. Attendance was my biggest mistake, and it counts for a lot, so go to class!

Sam Buke is a trip. He makes a dull subject entertaining. I fully expect to make an A in the class, but there is constant online quizes and homework. Class is actually fun, and he personally is a great guy.

Sam was a hoot! He lightened the mood everyday, always made sure you learned the material, even if outside of class. He makes an otherwise basic class very enjoyable.
