Comment:
Very Organized. Gives feedback. Grades quickly. Each chapter layout of assignments is the same. Requires thought and quite a bit of writing, however, if you do exactly what is asked, you should get an A. I got 100 on every assignment. One retake per test, except final. He'll pull some of the exact questions from tests to make up final.

This was an online course... Assignments were of the same template for every chapter so it was easy to know what he was looking for and what you needed to look for while reading. Easy assignments. Great feedback from professor, always.

I really enjoyed this professor. He was very helpful. His tests are hard but if you study and read the material you shouldnt have a problem. Do well on the written report and it should boost you an entire grade level!! Real nice man!

Great teacher. Demands a little bit of study time outside the classroom, but grades fairly. You don't even have to take notes he gives them to you, and the tests come directly from them. Map quizzes are tough if you suck at memorization. Written reports are a MUST to do well on. Boosted me from a C to a B! Would take for any GEO class!

Comment:
This guy was the worst teacher I've ever had. He had almost 100 slides every week and expected us to take notes on all of it. And when the class found out he had the notes online, he took them off! He doesn't care about his students or their grades. I would strongly recommend another teacher for this class.

I owe a lot to this guy- he let me join his class 3 weeks into the semester, AND let me make up all the work. I joined his class to get out of Leonard's, which was a great decision on my part. Havir is a good professor- clear, understanding, easy. One big drawback is that his class was pretty boring. I guess it's hard to make the subject otherwise.

He's a nice man, but his material is very unpredictable. Map tests are easy if you study. The exams are very overwhelming. STUDY STUDY STUDY! His "written report" will really boost your grade.

He is a very helpful teacher. Read your text and notes and study. He is also very nice and funny. Wish all instructors at MU could be like him.

He's a nice man but he is sometimes confusing. He gives a lot of extra credit that is helpful. I missed class for 3 weeks and he gave me all the assignments and let me make-up a extra credit quiz!!

Mr. Havir is a nice man, but his test material is very unpredictable. Map quizzes are easy. He gives oodles of extra credit.
