A great person. I saw him a few months after my last class with him and he still said hi and knew my name. The stereotype "cool teacher" that wears sandals, funny shirts, and sweet necklaces.

Comment:

I had bucky for my perspectives class for world religeons and I highly reccomend him. We really didn't have a whole lot of homework, only like 4 real papers but they were small (2-4 pages). The classes were really interesting and we had some really good discussions. We didn't really use the book so I wouldn't buy them. I highly reccomend him.

Class is discussion based with a few small reflection papers here and there. Bucky is a very thought provoking and knowledgeable professor. Also open to different views but be prepared to back up what you say!He definitely made the class more interesting than what I imagined coming into it.

Bucky does an excellent job teaching! His lectures are very easy to follow, the homework itself is pretty easy and the presentations are very, very informal! He is very relaxed as a professor and runs his classes in a relaxed manner.

Comment:

Very laidback, he takes papers several weeks late and doesn't take off points for lateness. Papers give you lots of freedom to write about what you care about, or just BS and get easy points. Very easy class, weekly papers can be written within 30 minutes.He never tries to force his own views or religions on you just present them in an unbiased way

Easy class, and a great guy to know. He tries hard to get you to know the material, and to get you a good grade. I turned a paper in at the end of the semester that was almost four months late, and he still took it and raised my grade from an AB to an A.

great guy, keeps class discussion interesting. I took the class in the summer and he was very understanding of having other classes with high demands. I actually learned a lot in this class, and I don't think many people can say that about perspectives!

Comment:

Bucky is the most understandable and tolerant person I ve seen ever. His lectures are highly clear and helpful for your papers and other assignments. He always wear good-looking exotic necklaces which makes him look really cool. As long as you take notes, show up to classes, and hand in your assignments on time, you will do fine! I actually got A.

Comment:

I had Bucky for my "What are Humans For?" Class and had an awesome time. This isn't a really hard or challenging course, it just makes you ask questions about humans and your beliefs. Your not repremanded if you don't read the books but it helps if you want to write a decent paper. Bucky is a vary laid back guy and a blast to have.

Bucky is a very good teacher. He will try to answer any questions that you have, he will also make you think of many questions to ask. He knows alot aobut religion but, can you really apply religion to anything related to engineering. If you have the chance to take a class with Bucky it is a great opportunity to open you mind!
