Comment:

Dr. Bay... More like Dr. BAE! lol just because he is so amazing. He's hilarious and he really cares about his students. Show up, do the projects and put in good effort and you'll get an A. I've learned so much from Dr. Bay and I wish I could have him for all of my classes honestly.

Knows about everything art and will do just about anything to help his students succeed. If you put effort into his class it'll def show in your grade even if you weren't the best student. Go to class b/c he notices if you don't.

Man is too busy to know what's going on. He cares but cant put any time into what you actually need. He is great and has lots of energy.

Awesome teacher! I heard horror stories about Art Appreciation and how teachers actually graded your artwork. He is the best teacher that I have had so far, very kind and extremely funny. He knows art is an opinion, and teaches in a fun way!

I love the way Dr.Bay taught! He was by far the best art professor I have had and possibly the best professor I have ever had. I learned so much from him, I have had him for about 5 other classes and he literally made learning fun.

Best professor @ RU! Always engages with students and never a dull moment! If anyone can instill anything, it's Dr. Bay and art! Invites art teachers to come visit & talk. Leaves paper on desks to draw while in class -- be creative!

Comment:

He is out there and doesn't have a "realism" approach to art. I hard a hard time learning anything about realism which is what I wanted from the course. But if you aren't looking for that go for this guy. Funny, nice, and fantastic fun. Easy A i

Comment:

At first Bay seems... almost mean & un-earth-ly (or northern). he's a great professor & dedicated. some projects seem stupid, but actually help 100% with later projects. learned more with his teaching than any RU professor, esp. regarding education.
