Comment:

Awesome guy. Sometimes too smart for his own good; "THE FREQUENCY DOMAIN TELLS YOU EVERYTHING!!!" Extremely helpful if you go to his office (office hours are annoying b/c other people go) and he's very interesting to talk to. Used to be Head of the ECE department, so you know he's a baller. Smart guy, interesting, and cool. I wish he was my grandpa

Comment:

He drones through his lectures and you will usually tend to fall asleep. And he tries too hard to explain things and by doing so just makes things all the more complicated.

Comment:

Would make an awesome grandpa. Doesn't make quite so awesome a professor, though. He is a genius, and doesn't realize this when trying to teach these simple thigns to us idiots in his class. As a result, I learned little, and slept plenty. Brunet wasn't much better for me though. :(

He's not very organized. If you have the option, go to the Brunet lectures.

Comment:

Lecture was useless. The mallards are key. If you can, take Brunet's class. Not only is she a better teacher, she's also head advisor for ECE -- so it's in your best interest to develop a relationship with her.

Nice guy, but rather incoherent. I have no doubt that he's smart, but he makes no sense during lectures often.

Does not teach the material. Lectures either boring or on interesting subjects that will not help with homework or tests. He is willing to help students who stay extra.
