Comment:

Wonderful, wonderful, and wonderful professor. Amazing professors such as Gibbons are hard to come by. Before taking his class, I was afraid of coding and had no clue of Java. After taking it, I truly feel that I can take any challenge in Java. Go to his lectures. Amazing lectures, but you also learn by "struggling" and doing.

come on guys the test samples are given to you before the test. How much easier can the class be? Easy A for those that study. You don't even have to read the textbook. Just memorize the sample questions and go to class. The final was a breeze and i was out within 20 minutes.

Comment:

He's a good prof, I just wasn't into the subject. I tried hard and I didn't do that well, but that's because I'm not science-oriented. What I didn't appreciate was his coming up to me while I took his final to tell me that since I wasn't getting an A I wasn't doing well. Nice guy, but that's just tacky.

Funny teacher. class is very easy. class is fun. if you have questions he answers them and simplifies everything for you. I have him for lab and lecture. Lab is so much fun. All we did was screw around and we still learned alot. Easy A. class is cake. If youre a clown he likes you more.

Great lab teacher. Understands that people could care less about this topic and just teaches what you need to know and breaks down all the geology BS. Easy A because he wants you to do well.
