Comment:

This man is so demanding, yet unreliable. He's inconsiderate and rude. He must not care about his job because if his superiors watched how he conducts his courses, he'd get fired in a heartbeat. What I had to go through for a 2-credit course about swimming/rockclimbing is ridiculous. A prof is useless if he can't teach his students.

Comment:

What a self-centered, irresponsible, unfair, unreasonable, disrespectful, arrogant, cocky, miserable person, who can not teach to save his life. Threw a kickboard at a student. No respect, I don’t care how qualified you may be for everything you say you are…you missed something, you are overly qualify as the biggest piece of garbage MSU has.

If you don't want to teach, don't teach. Never got things back to us in time, horrible at throwing together tests, and had ridiculous expectations. I'd rather choke on the book than take this class again.

Comment:

Dr. Tobin is very particular. He is stubborn and believes what he believes. He has high expectations of his students and likes to treat everyone as a professional. He is not the teacher to take if you want to just get by in a class. He appreciates hard work and disciplined students. He's smart and will give you respect if you try.

he is a great professor. he is more intelligent than any other professor in the department, you just need to know your subject material. Maybe it is more the students than the professor.

Comment:

he's a very understanding guy, but he isn't the best teacher. he is unclear on the assignments but he is a fair grader. considering that most of this exams are multiple choice, how unfair can he be? in his classes, you are better off studying on your own or with others to ensure a reasonable grade

Have had a handlefull of classes with this class. He is a complete DICK. Avoid as much as possible and hope he retires before u take him. Very unfair grader, un organized, useless counselor. The one person here he probably helped gave him favors for a good grade.
