Great man and great class. He's now serving a mission in Jerusalem. Maybe he'll come back...?

Comment:

This was a pretty easy class; some of his test questions I thought were a little silly (like the distance between cities). I found class dull but Bro Whipple was a nice guy just not real exciting- I didn't learn a whole lot either.--I wouldn't take from him again.

Comment:

I really enjoyed this class a lot. He had a lot of really interesting ideas that he put out there for us to think about. It's a pretty easy class. What makes it nice is that he really enjoys what he does, and you can tell. He's lived an interesting life and has some cool stories to tell. I'd reccomend it.

Comment:

He is really nice and gets easily excited about things. He cares about the students, but the pace is slow and does not really push you. I almost never studied and got a B+. If you like easy and laid back, he is for you, if you want to really learn, find someone else.

Comment:

He's a way cool guy, he has lived a very interesting life. The class is easy if you just do a little studying. It's in English so don't worry about that. It's the history of Central Europe and not just Ukraine, so you probably won't care about most of what you learn, but it's fun to be with people from the mission!

He's a great teacher. His information is straight to the point, and at the same time he's a lot of fun. Really laid-back. He's really lenient so if you have problems just let him know. Easy A.

Comment:

He was nice and all, but speaks very slowly and does not keep things interesting as they could be. I had NEVER fallen asleep in a class before this. It was easy enough, but there are loads other teachers out there to take from.

Good teacher, straight-forward tests, only 1 paper due, no other assignments other than reading BofM. Slightly boring.

Comment:

Walter is my hero. He is an incredibly nice guy and is funny from time to time. He has a wonderful personality. He teaches the Book of Mormon as it is, without his own theories that some professors declare as truths. Class is slow sometimes, but he is a very easy grader. There's only one 6page paper to do, and nearly the whole class got an A on it.

Comment:

He is a great man, knows a lot, however, the way that the class is set up is very boring. For someone that has been a member all their lives, it is almost pointless. Almost etirely based on summery and review. Wouldnt recomend it if youre looking for a challenge.

Bro. Whipple is an incredibly nice man, but his class was a little slow. I felt that the lectures didn't flow very well. However, his class was easy...he graded easily. The tests were all right.

Comment:

He is such a nice guy, but he kind of talks slow, which makes the classes kind of boring. He does have some interesting ideas, but they're easily missed because of the slow pace of the class.

Comment:

Brother Whipple is such a great guy, but I dont recommend his Book of Mormon class. He does have some interesting things to say, but it just wasnt enough for me. I could probably take the tests without studying and get B's easy. Just kind of boring. Such a great guy though. I love the man

Bro. Whipple is so NICE. He really loves the gospel, but that doesn't make him a great teacher. I didn't learn very much. But if you want a really easy class with a nice guy, this is it.

This was a good class. Bro. Whipple was a great teacher. He has some great insights to the scriptures. Sometimes the lectures got a little slow, but for the most part, it was really good.

Comment:

Awesomely great (and easy) teacher. The students end up teaching each other the lessons-literally- and the tests come straight from that. He compromises on the content of tests/quizzes. Easy to talk to, respectful, punctual, and prompt.

Great guy. Brother Whipple is funny and always listens to your interpretation of things, sometimes giving you more credit in class for a comment than you perhaps deserve. Very nice guy, quite laid back.
