Comment:

Patterson is super famous, but not necessarily the best professor.He is hard to follow in lecture and most of the time I didn't know what was going on. (Although I've been told if you do the reading first, the lecture is understandable.) The projects and homeworks for this course were reasonable, however, and helped me learn a lot.

Comment:

The new 61c class is a mess. Lectures, labs, homework, and even exams were completed just hours before class began. He's clearly coasting and doesn't want to be there. At least he's easy on the eyes if you like the fireplug type.

How does this guy stay a professor ... he has Garcia taking care of the class for him. Why not just let Garcia teach the whole class ... he's the better teacher.
