Comment:
Never got grades in, never answered emails, and when he did he had an attitude, emailed me 11 times when I was in the hospital for a week and got mad at me for missing a test. I eventually tried to drop the class and he would never remove me. I had to go to my advisor to finally get him to officially remove me

Comment:
I took one of his classes online and while online classes are supposed to be more independent than being in a classroom, I feel that he could have given better feedback, graded assignments in a timely matter and made tests and assignments worth different points. He took WEEKS to post grades, yet we had strict rules for turning our work in.

Comment:
Dr. Settles provides everything you need in order to pass the class. The text book is absolutely essential and if you don't use it for the majority of your studying then don't count on passing. He expects students to work for an A. No hand outs in his classes. He is a genuine and interesting guy and is truly interested in his students.

Comment:
This was the hardest class I have ever taken, and I was extremely proud of my B. I agree with the other commenters that studying and seeking extra help are necessary if you want to do well. However, Dr Settles is simply a great guy, and we are still friends a semester later. Also, he is extremely smart and enthused about his subject.

Comment:
I thought this class was impossible at first, but you just really have to study. Read ahead in the textbook, ask for extra help , and just study everything. Its the only way you will do well in this class.

Comment:
He gave out notes most of the class and expected you to read on your own at home. Your grades are based mostly on 5 tests throughout the semester, all of which are not easy. He was a nice person overall, you just need to study a lot to do well in his class.

If he didnt have powerpoint he wouldnt be about to teach anything. Not helpful at all. When asking a question he tries to make you feel dumb.

Don't expect to learn anything from this guy if you take his online class. He kinda disappears, doesn't answer your questions, doesn't post assignments on time. What a waste of my time.

Test is all notes and he will tell you most of the time what is on the tests. Hardest thing is short answer essays, so know your stuff. But all in all very nice person.
