Comment:

He's a great guy, but also a pain. I learned a lot but he's really patronizing when he lectures about privacy. Group project was a disaster and I did kinda poorly on exams but I did okay because I participated a lot. Speak up in class, go to his office, it'll help you on tests and he'll consider your effort and struggles when he gradespretty fair.

Comment:

Santanen is very hypocritical when grading. He tells you to be precise, yet often assigns extremely wordy and confusing homework and projects. He is not clear or direct with what he wants. Extremely tough grader, also make sure you participate or else your grade will suffer big time. Avoid him if at all possible, take it abroad!!!

Comment:

Absurd grading. Class was interesting but I was so concerned about my grade throughout the course that I kind of lost interest in the material. I'm currently working on his 'optional' final take home exam which is impossible. A little note about the final: once you turn it in, he counts it regardless if it helps your grade or hurts it.

Comment:

Completely ridiculous class. Tests are extraordinarily hard. Each question is worth 15 points or so and you can only get a 15, a 7 or a 0 on each, which is ludicrous. Everyone has to take it so there is nothing you can do about it, but don't expect to come even close to raising your GPA that semester, because it simply won't happen.

Had him for my freshman seminar. Great guy. If you participate a lot he loves you. Smart, interesting, good at what he does. I'd recommend having a class with him.

Prof. Santanen's classes are enjoyable and interesting. My class was held in a computer lab, and he would routinely show YouTube clips that were relevant to the topic at hand.

Comment:

The most helpful professor at Bucknell. He would answer every question I ever had. He's very patient. His tests are very hard and definitely require studying. There's not a lot of homework but you end up doing a lot of work. He's sorta goofy but a really nice guy

Comment:

Not an easy class as everyone says! Exams were hard and so were pop quizzes. Much of the final grade is based on a major group project based on a company's IS's systems which everyone does well on so it helps your final grade. Everyone takes this for thier tech elective, but there are many easier options.

Comment:

Hard class. I pulled off a great grade inspite of the hard tests and awful pop quizzes. However, his class is more than that. I loved the class becuase I felt like I actually learned something - that I actually got an education. The class is challenging at first, then get's a lot better. I definitely recommend him for a GREAT class.

Comment:

Took class because heard it was easy, and this wasnt the case. Theres little work besides group project (which everyone does well on). Exams are hard and if you screw up on one, its hard to make up for it. Theres only two. The pop quizzes are a pain. I know a lot of people who did well, and a lot of people who did poorly. Very nice professor though

All of his notes are posted online. He also offers review sheets and practice tests. His exams, however, are hard. The average was in the high 70s. He does not give that much work though, just one big project a couple of exams and a handful of pop quizzes.

Very energetic about his class. You can tell he really loves what he does. He's very helpful, but the tests can be tricky. The project is time consuming, but he grades pretty easily.
