I really enjoyed this class. Wiggins made physics fun and exciting while making the class manageable. Though I do believe I would've stepped out of this class with a greater understanding of physics if the course was a bit more rigorous, I appreciate his acknowledging how hard other engineering courses are and designing his accordingly.

Professor Wiggins is loved because he makes getting an A easy and provides entertainment in lectures. However, he is very unprofessional, never responds to emails and is very hard to get in touch with outside of lecture (though he often cancelled lectures as well). Never did what he said he was going to. Always about 6 weeks behind on grading.

Best teacher at SUU. Truly cares about students success and about how students are doing in general. Clearly a genius but teaches in a way that even complex topics are made simple. Funny and makes me want to watch lord of the rings. Highly Recommend.

I seriously loved this class. Most of the class was pretty easy, but I feel like I learned a lot. One thing was that the final was way harder then the exams so be aware of that (I got a low score on the final but still a pretty good grade). Even after all that I still think it is 100% worth taking this class.

Responds to email promptly. Uses free textbook. Would be nice to have feedback and prompt grading on discussions and labs. Nonetheless, is very receptive to lab ideas and willing to regrade tests if any inaccuracies are found. A major concern with the course is the need to validate the homework / quiz questions against latest textbook.

Professor Wiggins is awesome. He is a little spastic, so if thats not for you, I wouldnt take. I didnt mind it though- it made class fun. He was always willing to meet if you had questions and he gave me a ton of extra practice problems if I didnt feel confident after doing all the HW. Hes a great professor who cares for his students. 9.5/10!

Do whatever you can to get into his class. I didn't pass college physics the first time and retook it with Dr. Wiggins. It's not that he is just easier or has lower expectations, he still tests on all the same material, he is just a far superior teacher, so the material seems easy. Relevant equations are always provided on tests.
