Comment:
I took this class knowing he was a difficult professor - and I ended up changing my major and transferring schools because I loved the subject so much, and he fully supported my decision. His tests are only difficult because the subject needs to be taken seriously. If I was still there, I would've taken his other classes.

Fantastic teacher! He has a rough approach but if you listen to what he's actually saying you can understand why he gets upset ifwhen he does. He's realistic and will prepare you for the real world. Very knowledgeable of his subjects covered in his classes, and a wonderful person to get to know when you get to know him. Just do the work & show up!

The Worst Professor I have had. He contradicts his syllabus often, even though it is his contract to the student.

He is a guy with a lot of knowledge, but with a bad personality. If you listen, show up to class, and do what you are supposed to you will have no problems. He just makes you actually work instead of just letting you slide threw the class.

I am a senior and he is by far the worst professor I've ever had. He should not be teaching. Claims you weren't in class even if you've signed in. Refuses/cannot help students. Do not take him if possible.

Comment:
I believe he knows what he's talking about. But he can go out of his way to be unhelpful. Also, if you have issues understanding poor grammar, watch out. His tests and power points are like decyphering some code. That aside, the class I took at least was easy. Also, NEVER miss a class. Ever.

Kolick is a good professor he can just get a little grumpy and off topic. He is very knoledgable about the material and as long as you pay attention and don't slack it is really easy to get a good greade in his class. Also as long as you just come to every class he give you a 3 percent boost to your grade!

Kolick isn't bad at all. Don't miss class, and don't text or sleep in class and you will be fine. Really knows the information and is willing to help IF YOU ASK. He's not going to baby you, if you man up and act like a grown-up, you'll be fine.

Very knowledgeable about what he is teaching. Sometimes he does get off topic. If you want a hands on class with a chance to learn something take kolick. You won't learn jack from a thompson online class. Kolick will help you if you show some initiative to want to learn the material and understand it. Get on his good side.

He is a good professor who knows what he's talking about. Unfortunately he is Very strict, you have to do the assignments the way he is teaching you. He makes you work for the knowledge you gain from his classes. He greatly appreciates extra effort in class and is very approachable.

Kolick is a very difficult professor,and I use that term loosely, to have because he will not help you. If you ask him a question, he will give you a answer that makes you more confused that you were before. He is not good at what he does.

Comment:
So you want to hear about David Kolick? You may hear he is a professor. HE IS NOT. You may hear he is an advisor. HE IS NOT. When you ask him a question that he doesn't know the answer to he replies with, "You just have to figure it out." If you are having trouble with an assignment he replies with, "People, if you have a problem DEAL WITH IT!"

He's an okay teacher. His lectures are always stright forward and he uses a lot of powerpoints. His tests are fair and he's a nice person. But, sometimes he has a little B.O. problem.

He's a good teacher, with real life experience. His methods are strict but usually in the name of safety. He wont spoon fill your answers. YOU HAVE TO FIGURE THINGS OUT.

Comment:
This Professor which i do not believe that he is one. The person is a nightmare. He shows you how to do something then expects you to become a expert on what he just did. Dont ever miss class if you miss class your pretty much screwed. He think he is king or something. If you ever get him drop the class i never failed a class before until his class

One of the best teachers there is! Don't take him if you are lazy and not serious about the classes. He treats the classes like it is your job (which it is). He is the only teacher that has actually worked a real job so he knows what you will see in the real world. He is very knowledgable.

I took this class 2 times and it's such a nightmare the machines arent ever fully functioning, too many people in the lab to get all work done, if you miss 1 lecture/lab your screwed(even if it's excused), and he treats students like they are pieces of CRAP! DONT TAKE ITE 250 with him EVER!
