Comment:
He's not the hardest I've ever taken but you still have to work for your grade. He is willing to help you out if you need. If he tells you to where to find something it was probably already provided in the lecture or something. Usually responds quickly to emails also

Comment:
Gives more work than my other classes combined, and is not helpful. If you email him a question he will tell you to look it up rather than help you out himself. Super sarcastic in his emails and class anouncements. If you want a good grade be ready to set aside all of your other priorities for his class, bc that's what he wants apparently

Comment:
I will never take a class he is teaching again. It is a online class. But his lectures are too long and wordy. He doesn't even lecture like most teachers through a video or audio, which would be nice. He doesn't give adequate time limits on Quizes and Tests. Who cares if he's hot if he is rude and strict.

Comment:
Blane is pretty cool but strict. You better go to class prepared and pay attention or just don't go at all. He is kind of pompous and can be rude. He knows his stuff though! Dicussions are great and the material is interesting. Plus, he's good looking.

Good teacher. He hates people being late to class, so always be on time. Overall his class is good, he likes discusion in the class so try to talk. Very down to earth and test are easy, only if you study and read the book.

He's not too bad. You have to go to class (points taken off for every one you miss) and take notes. Gives study guides that are pretty helpful and tests always go along with notes and book. A few quizzes and 3 tests (not cumulative). You have to study but it's not that bad if you're an okay student.

He's a great professor! He explains the material thoroughly and is enthusiastic about what he teaches. His tests are easy if you study from the book and notes. He also provides the essay questions from the tests so you can prepare for it beforehand. Overall, interesting class and great teaching.

The class is easy because he explains everything until everyone is sure to understand what he is talking about.
