Take SBU with a different professor. Didnt learn much and found myself doing pointless projects/quizzes. Although as long as you do your work youll probably get an A.

Comment:

Ed. is extremely talented. He is an actor and can give wonderful insight into that world. If you listen to him and apply what he teaches you and trust that he knows what he is doing you will go far in any of his classes. He is a great man the University is very fortunate to have him.

Comment:

Dr. Simone is a very passionate man, but comes off very self-centered. If you are one to do theater just for fun, do not join this program because it is work and no play.

Comment:

Ed. is very serious about his work and he expects you to be also. He is reasonable. He is helpful. He believed in me and he has spent alot of his own time to help me move on and up in the theater world. He is perhaps my favorite prof.

Comment:

Ed. can come across as self centered, but he really does care about the students he teaches; he just wants everyone to love his subjects as much as he does- and that's hard to do at Bonas, since the university doesn't choose to embrace them. Nice guy, seriously.

Comment:

He's okay...cares too much about himself and HIS interests though. But he's funny and he doesn't grade hard at all. In fact, he doesn't give tests/quizzes that much either.

Comment:

I took the Simone's for World Views... WHAT a nightmare. They basically thought of their two favorite hobbies, and forced us all to learn about them. It was the worst crap I ever sat through at Bonas... Ed Simone was AWFUL. If you can avoid him, do so.

avoid this prof. He knows art, music, and theater, but can't teach these passions. Never clear on what is on his tests.

Comment:

Ed period Simone loves art, theatre and himself. you will see him comb his mop of hair and talk about his achievements more than pay attention to the students. has a lot of first hand experience, but a boring class.

Comment:

His course carries a lot of indelible insight and experience. Although he may come off as "confident," Dr. Simone's statements are profound and carry much weight. Once acclimated to his teaching style, he makes a great teacher.

Comment:

His class should be called Art and Art. He completely ignores literature and teaches in a way that is both painfully boring and pretentious. I wish I'd taken anyone else (especially Tedesco).
