He is a great professor. Cares a lot about the success of his students and keeps class interesting. Exams are hard but he scales and gives extra points. I can say I learned a lot in this class

He is a great professor and his lectures are funny and engaging. His exams are tough, but if you study an hour before the exam you will get mid 70's which will scale up to high 80's low 90's.

Dan the man! Funny lectures, great class to take if you are not a major. He is a dad, but an all round cool and funny guy. Class is optional, but he really bumps your grade if you go to all classes. No textbook. Take if you can.

Great Teacher. I took his environmental science class called Human Impact on Land and Life to fulfill my upper level science requirement. I did it over the winter, which I don't recommend because it is a lot of material to cover in only 3 weeks. But he's a great guy, clear grader, hilarious, and makes science fun. Tests are all multiple choice.

Be sure to read and ask if you don't understand something. Personal one on one is advised for clarity. Being in class is most important.

Class is boring but he has some funny stories. Go see him before the tests and he'll give you the answers. 2 D's on the first two, saw him before the final and pulled an A

Comment:

His class isn't impossible, but it's difficult to shoot for an A-/A. Attendance isn't mandatory, but in order to get above a B+ you need to go to every class and his office hours. For the average person it's tough, I've seen a few good students not take the class seriously and end up with a C. If you're looking for an easy grade look elsewhere.

Comment:

My favorite teacher hands down, this is my second class with him. If you go to class and listen you don't have to do any other work, it doesn't hurt to revise but it's not needed. Tests can be tricky but he curves. There is only one assignment. I wish he taught all my classes to be honest.

I would highly recommend going to his office hours before exams, he will literally tell you everything that will be on them. If you don't good luck bc half the material is out of nowhere. No text book, funny guy, laptops allowed in class...I would def take him again

Comment:

He believes that if too many students get an A in his course then he'll get fired; therefore, he asks questions on the exam that he never explained in class that you can't know. It's pretty frustrating if you put a lot of effort into the learning process. If he wasn't personable and helpful this course would be DREADFUL.

Pretty cool professor but his tests are impossible and his lectures are random. Class average on exams was usually an F, but he usually added points. Don't bother studying for the tests because the questions come out of nowhere.

Awesome professor. Very clear and has a lot of versatile experience that he brings into class. The tests are rather hard but if you come to class you'll be fine.
