I wish Prof Stroud didn't retire. He was the best instructor and was passionate about music. His class was insanely easy especially during the summer semesters. I overall enjoyed that class so much. The stories he told were funny and heart touching. Best instructor hands down!

Spring 2015 is his last semester. Really great guy if you actually talk to him, if he doesn't know who you are, you're probably gonna have a bad time.

This is the best teacher ever on the face of the earth!! I took this class first summer session, you have to attend each day so you can take notes, every Thursday was a quiz from the notes and you can use your book. Had to write two EASY essays ( all info in book) on two quizzes & then had to do a concert review. Class is fun & his jokes are funny!

I learned many new things about music in this class. Teacher was very good and made the class fun. Especially the part of listening to the music in class and many classical music was perfect.

Comment:
He's easy enough. He's funny and I enjoyed his talks. He will definitely not be the cause of a low grade. The only complaint here is his extreme kindness. At times I wished he would kick a couple of rude students out for talking. Disrespectful students mistake kindness and see a "pushover". Don't be one of these, if you want to then go to Delta

Stroud will be rude if you are disrupting the class. Anyone who has complaints about Stroud will not get far in college. He is the best instructor at MJC. If you are not getting an A, it's your fault not his.Take Stroud! No regrets.

Comment:
He's rude and spends 99% of the time talking about his ex wives. Don't accidently write your music review on the wrong type of convert or he'll crucify you in front of the entire class and make you feel dumb. Im a strait A student and his class ruined my GPA. Don't take his class unless you're willing to deal with his inconsistency and confusion.

Easy A. Come to class on time. Be respectful, that means no talking or playing with widgets. Pay attention and take notes. No homework just a few papers to write, midterm and final. He is an awesome teacher. Doesn't want u to like music but appreciate it in his class. NO TALKING :x he really hates it.

If you show up, have respect are courteous you will pass this class. He is really easy to take for such a class and I didn't have to have preexisting knowledge of how to write musical notes to get the A I received. :)

Dr Stroud is a fun guy. He has a unique personality and he adds a little entertainment to the class with his jokes. If you go to his classes, you will pass the class. Only 3 papers and 2 tests all semester! I thought he was a little odd at first, but he definitely grew on me. He's my favorite teacher this semester!
