Professor Guigno is an EXCELLENT teacher. He is helpful, intelligent, and knows his stuff. He goes above and beyond to help his students...while here, and as well as after they have graduated. Would absolutely advise students to take his class.

Professor Guigno is the worst professor at KCC and if you're able to not take him then please don't because you will regret it. He's not a fair grader and he will lower your GPA.
