Great teacher who seems to really believe in his students and pushes them to be better. He's also a little intimidating which is great motivation to get work done

Comment:

Just ignore his moobs and personality and you'll do fine. The tests and quizzes are much, much easier than the homework he assigns, so if you understand that then you're on the right track. He is very helpful during office hours, but always be prepared-- bring your textbook, and don't talk to him without having already attempted the problem.

Comment:

For Statics, he give a lot of homework. DO THE HOMEWORK every single night. He only gives three tests, but if you pay attention in class and do the homework you will get at least a B in the class. He is very helpful and welcoming to his office hours! Be ready to view baby pictures.

Comment:

You really have to study for this class. He assigns about 40 minutes of homework every night, and if you do it you will be fine (like a B average probably). Very serious about attendance, tardiness, and having your book. Is willing to have office hours whenever. DO THE WORK HE ASSIGNS.

Gotta love those sexy yachting shorts, although the extreme sexiness of the legs do tend to distract me from the lecture. Sit in the front if you dare! Oh, and the course is good, too.

Great teacher. Tells jokes and kids around with you if you let him. Doesn't bore you with the details on proving something. Teaches you what you need to know them moves on. I am taking him again.

Great teacher. Pretty easy class and usually lets out early. As long as you are on time, show up to class, and make him know that you're trying, you'll get an A.

Dr. Mahaney is so awesome! He is incredibly funny and really cares a lot about his students. He works hard for the students, and his office is ALWAYS open for anyone at any time. I encourage you to go by and get to know him.

Liked him alot. He is hard because he expects alot, but I learned so much. He may seem not to like you but he does care. Gotta play his game. Fair homework and exams...didn't expect Mechanical Egr to be easy, did you?

This class was gonna be easy no matter what, but he answered any questions and was pretty helpful. He's a bit harsh for some, but I think he's fine. if your gonna be mechanical go ahead and get in good with him cause you'll be seeing him again.

Made me sit and listen to a 30minute lecture before he signed my drop form. Before that I had been attending class and hating it. I've never been so bored. Oh, yeah. I'm a TCO now ...
