John is awesome! Such a caring man and really cares about the success and future of his students. Pharm Convo is a very light course, study his outlines, make a quizlet with all the terms and you will get an A.

Tests are all multiple choice. for lecture he gives you a packet you have to fill out and weekly "quizzes" each class that he just gives you. He does test on specific details so make sure you study all the worksheets and note packets he gives you great guy who is super knowledgeable about pharmacy

Comment:

Prof. Colaizzi is knowledgeable and caring. Write down everything because he may test on details and percentages. Know acronyms. This class is often termed an "easy A," meaning that it has the potential to be one, but do not take lightly, or else it will reflect in your grade (students' past experiences). Ultimately, a useful and interesting class!

I had Prof Colaizzi for a Byrne Seminar for Pharmaceuticals. His class was very informative and helpful in understanding the aspects of pharmaceuticals. He's very knowledgable. There was a required presentation on a topic you are assigned. You pass if you show up to every class and do the presentation.

Professor Colaizzi is amazing. He's incredibly respected and for good reason. He interacts with the students a lot and really appreciates participation. Attendance is by worksheets in class. If you show up and take notes on the outlines he gives and study those it's an easy A. One of my favorite courses and professors by far.

Professor Colaizzi is wonderful. He interacts with students and pharmacy convocations is an easy A. You take notes on printed sheets and do participation worksheets. Besides that it is an easy midterm and final. The guy is really awesome if you speak up in class and talk.

Comment:

Professor Colaizzi has been doing pharmacy for a long time and is very knowledgeable. Lectures are presented verbally, but all you have to do is fill out a sheet of pre-printed notes. Very manageable course, just make sure you study the pharmacy terms and write down the specific examples he mentions, because they will be test questions.

Comment:

Lectures are long and overwhelming due to lots of info given. He reads off of outlines where you have to do a lot of writing. Weekly quizzes are challenging and always tricky. Best to study every day for reinforcement. Definitely have a group of friends to compare notes with b/c he flies through those outlines.

Really nice guy and very knowledgable about pharmacy. Make sure to listen during lecture since he tells you the answers to the notes. He provides you with all the material to get an A but you need to study since the tests can be tricky.

Comment:

This class is more difficult than convocations and history, but is definitely manageable. Definitely go to class and take notes, although it is good to compare with others. Quizzes every week, but midterm & final are easy. LOTS of information to memorize. Nice guy but should probably retire soon.

Comment:

Take notes on laptop otherwise your hands will ache a lot by the end of the class. Take thorough notes and write down everything he says (esp what he writes on the board)! Make sure to share notes with friends before exams in case you missed writing something in class. Exams itself are kinda tricky/hard but don't overthink or read too much into it.

Comment:

Graduated in 1997 and remember Dean Colaizzi well. Midwest values are evident. Show up on time, don't disrespect, and he will be fair. Values taught in his class hold more currency than the course content. You will learn pharmacy in the real world.

Really nice guy. Class is a lot of memorizing but is fairly easy. Just write down everything he says on the fill in sheets. He collects one sheet at the end of class for participation. All you have to do for exams is study the sheets and know all the terms and abbreviations. Can be daunting but is fairly easy.

Class attendance is mandatory because he collects a fill in sheet at the end of class. Exams are based on the fill in the blank sheets he gives out during class.

Pharma-Colaizzi is the man! Only problem is your hand may fall off. I hope you guys can memorize a lot cause that's also a must but his questions are fair yet sometimes hard. I wish he'd give us more space to write as well, cause I was squeezing paragraphs into spaces a cm thick. All things considered, I wish Colaizzi was my Grandpapa not Lowndes.

the nicest man during class. be prepared to write the entire period. the lecture can be a little dry except when he adds his little stories. attendance is a must. there is not text and all notes. exams are a little tricky as they are worded like SAT/AP style questions
