Comment:

He's a nice guy and is definitely experienced a lot in his life, his quizzes are regular and fairly simple if you read. He doesn't give much feedback but is willing to help. Sometime doesn't answer your questions very concisely but after 3 courses with him he is fairly easy to predict.

Comment:

The class is sort of hard and theres alot of work but if you actually study it won't be too bad. I had a D for my midterm grade but then I did extra credit which brought my grade up a whole letter grade and my final essay helped me bring my final grade to a B+

Comment:

THis is a professor that did not teach a single lesson since the beginning of the semester. One time, he claimed we were going to take a quiz on geographers; the quiz was actually about things such as which organizations give money to poor countries and the age group that is most likely to get malaria. Most of his "lessons" were just videos.

Comment:

Prior to taking the class I had no interest in the subject matter. As a speech pathology major I just did not think it would be enjoyable for me. However, I actually really loved it. You learn about things that everybody should know. I realize now, just how sheltered I was before taking this class. Very informative and helpful!

He's an easy teacher, and explains everything. Intereseting material, and talks about stuff you wouldn't expect to learn at a public college. I'd take a class with him again any time.

I love this man, take his class!! He gives you a lot of papers to write but he accepts (and prefers) just an outline, not the actual paper. Two tests all year - kinda hard but there is alot of extra credit options (which you should def take advantage of!!) interesting, easy and just an over all great guy and class. just participate in class

awesome guy outside the class room. former advisor of mine. his classes are interesting but not always presented and prepared in the usual manner you are accustomed too. if youd like an "alternative" classroom experience, grab a course or two wit

Supposedly has a degree in Planning, although is frequently unprepared for class. Bad, unfocused lecturing. Spazzy and scattered. Two words: PLAN AHEAD.

Comment:

The assignments were generally easy (self-assesment paper, group work, etc). However if something is unclear it will most likely stay that way, sometimes a bit confusing when explaining formats for assignments. Generally a nice guy

Easy going, helpful. Odd class. Mixture of Anthro and Geo. Some assignments are annoying. Tests are hit or miss. A lot of reading from the text. Lots of videos. No final.

Comment:

Not a bad professor, gives a lot of extra credit projects so it is easy to boost your grade at the end of the semester, no final. A lot of meaningless projects. He is a pretty easy grader i would recomend taking this class if you need it.
