Comment:

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. He is there, but he rambles on and on about nothing for the entire time. None of his information he gives or asks you to read is on the exams. He curves everything, but there are very few assignments. Bring a blanket and pillow if you are taking this class.

Comment:

I will admit, Dr. Fine is an awkward guy. You can get past that if you are taking the class for the right reasons though. He has some really great points if you just listen to him. I don't advise taking him if you are just going to sit there and think about your next smoke break or count the minutes until class is over.

Comment:

I took all the classes he offers, not a bad guy, hard to understand at times, cuz he goes off the subject very often. But if you can surpass the boring lectures and write the papers, you'll do fine

He rambles on aimlessly. I went to class everyday and read the book and still got C's on his tests. I wouldn't recommend him.

Comment:

The Class was a joke. I had a blast laughing at him as he rambled about why is a dog a dog and why is a tree a tree. I think he sniffed to much of the paint at that GM painting plant all those years ago. But he gives alot of Bs so it wasnt bad if you dont mind not learning anything at all.

Comment:

Constantly loses assignments that were turned in. He's not a bad guy, but not a great instructor. Tests are easy only because he doesn't put a lot of effort into making them. Your better off spending two hours mopping floors in Owen Library.

Most of the time I couldn't even tell the difference between going to class and not going to class. His lectures were that pointless.

Possibly the only class where the lectures have nothing to do with exam material or the class itself for that matter. Constantly goes over time by 10-15 minutes.
