Not much of a class at all. Class is essentially optional and you never really do anything in class anyways. The more that you read the textbook, the worse you will do.

It was all online so it is important to manage your time to turn in the quizzes and labs on time. Easy to get a good grade in, just need to stay on top of your work.

Would recommend for INTR 202 if you've had some previous experience in statistics. Reminds me of a dorky but chill dad. Just make sure you pay attention to the due dates of the various homework assignments, since they're due in the middle of the week. That was the only tricky part for me, personally, having assignments due at 10pm on a Wednesday.

Comment:
Very, very easy... classes on Tuesday are optional and for a 4 credit class has very little work... The courseware is much harder than anything you'd see on a test and it shows when you get your grades back... Doesn't teach much in class, but the courseware is easy to follow

It's almost like he doesn't want you to go to class. Skipped over half the classes, because he sent out all the materials over sakai and email. Even though I never went to class, he was always willing to help in office hours. This class is an easy A if you go to class, and an easy B if you don't.

Bad news: Lectures are boring. Especially at 8am. Good news: Professor is most helpful ever. Sends out supplemental resources so you can learn the material anyway. Very approachable. Great guy in person. Class gets waay harder as it goes on, I recommend attending the last weeks, especially. Study hard for the final.

Comment:
You don't really need to use a textbook in his statistics course, but you do a lot better if you do. The classes aren't very interesting, but statistics isn't really an interesting subject. As long as you pay attention you'll understand what's going on because he is very clear.

I took INTR 202 with him. Very boring. You don't ever want to go to class, and in class you will spend 2 hours learning what could be easily learned in 30 minutes. No homework and his tests are relatively easy nonetheless.

Had him for OB. Very strait-forward. If you do the work and put in the effort, it is an easy A. Just make sure you study his slides and also use the book additionally.

Whatever you do, don't take him for Stats unless you're very good at Business/Econ/Management. If you're a Politics major, transfer sections while you still can. He reads from Powerpoints taken directly from the textbook, and isn't helpful at all on questions. I'm sure he's great for other stuff, just not Stats.

He's a little bit of a nerdy guy and doesn't have an overly dynamic classroom presence, but he's still a great prof.
