Dr. Hurst is hands down the greatest professor I have had at CLU. He really takes the time to make sure each and every one of the students really understand the material. He is also really funny and an interesting guy to talk to about any scientific topic. Hilarious professor!

Scientific concepts can get confusing so don't over think, just memorize if you want an "A". He curves but if it's your major, you should invest in the book. Lets class out early. Really sweet guy. All exams are multiple choice.

Had Prof. Hurst for Geo 150 LAB. Great guy, always willing to help, very approachable. Would only be in the lab for about 30 min. Took a field trip to Santa Paula on a Saturday. Covers everything that will be on the 2 tests beforehand. Great sense of humor, even zinged a jughead in the lab and it went over his head. I recommend Prof. Hurst.

Wow, this class is practically a free "A". Well, not really, but you know what I'm trying to get at. Text is overpriced and NOT needed... terminology and material is very easy. Just take notes in class. Doc H is "rad" and makes lectures interesting. Tests are curved, and so is the class. Funny dude... just take him. Very little effort needed.

Great professor. He is easy going. Makes a boring subject like Geology hilarious. If you don't want to buy the book show up to class and take notes. You do need the book if you want to cram the info in last minute. The test are faily easy but not so easy that you don't study. Remember a Tsunami is a big wave. Seriously thats what he said.

If you are gonna take a science class make sure its with Hurst. Why? Well because he makes science funny! His overall teaching abilities are excellent, he know the material and will teach you the subject but he does not bore you to death like your average science professor. So will you learn? YES INDEED! Will you laugh? HELL YEAH YOU WILL!

Comment:
He lectures from powerpoint slides and expects you to know what's on them before you go to class. He talks fast so keep up. Tests are not all that hard but he knit-picks at certain assignments.
