Comment:

hahahaa North. Hard to forget. Just pay attention... he goes off on tangent all the time, more often then not these invlove jokes. He's a funny guy. But if you catch the important stuff you're set. Very helpful if you go to his office, he'll talk to you anytime if you want to pop in.

He called plain strain fracture toughness K "I"(eye) C, until the year 2006! Then somehow, somewhere he learned that it's actually K "one" C.

Comment:

From Scoot-landd! Enjoys his Haggis. He has no concept of the typical traditional professor to student relation during class which is kinda good because its a total new experience. He actually communicates to students. I found myself listening more and taking less notes. Overall a very great and unique professor.

This guy was hilarious. The classes were pure jokes, but I actually learned stuff. Tests were extremely fair to say the least. If you didn't do good, it was your fault and no one else's!

Comment:

Lectures are very enjoyable. He uses good examples to explain the material and keeps the class interested. Probably one of the very few people who focuses on presentations. His door is always open and is very supportive of students.
