Comment:

Bragaw is amazing. If you don't get the reading, ask. Otherwise you won't be hearing much about it in class. The exams/quizes are based mostly on the readings; don't expect to just show up and get a decent grade. His classroom antics are hilarious and he has a great camaraderie with his students.

Comment:

He cancelled at least 3 weeks worth of classes. was never helpful, the assignments were kind of hard but manageable. tests and quizes were NEVER information covered in class. he would blab on for hours but not stick to the powerpoint or give relative info. came in late every day and held the class over.

Comment:

One of the best teachers I have ever had and is to brillant. His stammer keeps me entertained it lets me know that there is so much going in his head that he has a difficult time communicating it to the class. If the student is willing to put forth the effort than everything will be fine, but if you dont you will be screwed.

He is unprepared and his lectures are all-over the place. He tries to help but only confuses you more. Nice guy, but terrible teacher.

Comment:

This class was so hard. Several people had to switch to pass/fail grading because they were doing so bad. He would probably be a great teacher for a graduate level course, but the material we covered was way too hard and there was too much work for me to learn a THING!

Comment:

I don't know who's kidding who, but professor bragaw screwed me my sophomore year, so I dropped his class so I didn't fail out. My senior year I took him again and thought, if I do the homework, go to every single class, go to him for help, and give it 11

He is really hard, but his classes will teach you something. He also has some funny habits that can be entertaining if you don't feel like paying attention (count the umms).

Comment:

He taught us all sorts of things, like how unscientific online polls are and how easy they are to manipulate. He also taught us how to convert simple lead into gold, so I quit school and am now a millionaire.

Comment:

In own world lots of days. For fun, we blow fluffs from sweaters into air to see if he notices them drifting by his face. He never does. Sometimes, I don't think even a whoopie cushion in his chair would distract him once he gets on a roll. Intense focus.

Very funny and smart man. class was always entertaining. The only bad thing is that he never gives papers back. But other than that if you do the reading and go to class you will do well in his classes.

Has difficulty staying on topic. Tests are usually extremely easy, if you do the reading. Lectures have little to do with grade, as most tests are based on reading.
