He is fantastic. He is smart as hell, keeps the class interesting, is very funny, and almost always lets you out early. He makes difficult material interesting and fairly clear, even if it seems to make no sense. The quizzes do come in handy. Doing the same problem over and over again will help you. Moves to fast, but compensates. Very helpful.

Ed is a great professor! He comes to every physics tutoring session and he'll personally help you with anything, but pushes you to figure it out on your own.

Does not clarify concepts, expects students to know what and how to look for things. Just gives problems without explaining the relationship clearly. Means well and is very intelligent, but will ridicule you for not immediately understanding what is going on in the problem. If you want to understand the general concepts take an intro class prior.

Just cares about making money. He publishes his own books, the university buys his books off him, and pays him to teach the class. Not to mention the books do not get proof-read, there were tons of errors in the books. Some of the problems did not work out and there was no answer sheet to check answers. Expect to go to tutoring bc he won't help.

I'm not gonna lie his physics for sci and engineers class is so easy and fun, not sure why people are complaining. If you study even for 5 minutes a day you will get an A in the class, its all about the fun you have solving problems in class!

The problems were challenging, but they never felt impossible. Dr. Meyer is very encouraging and gave me the confidence to tackle every problem even if it took me a minute to figure out where to start. I was excited to come to every class and I wish I could take this class again.

This guy is unaccommodating as someone give a 504 plan. He never filled it out. The professor ignores me a lot of the times and made me uncomfortable in class and makes comments about how he enjoys, watching us struggle.

I never came across a professor that was horrible in treating his students until I met this professor. He has a big attitude and ego problem and knows how to downplay his students like I'm not even kidding you everything he says and does he's always correct in class and we're always wrong. Like, how was that learning?

I'm someone who does major in the physics department and I think this is a professor is the reason I want to drop my major and go do something else. He's pretty much telling me this whole semester that I'm not trying hard enough. Every time I send an email that I did the work. He tells me every time I'm wrong and doesn't tell me how to fix it.

The amount of times I have reached out for help and have received nothing from this professor is insane. He also gives me a dirty look every time I walk past or see him like I'm very problematic for reaching out for help, but he doesn't grade any of the work I do and if he does, he just puts slashes on it and gives me no feedback

The professor said, in my face, that failing his would be good for me because it would help with building confidence. Mind you, I have a scholarship and I paid to be in that class. Made me uncomfortable, put his hands on me — he drained the life out of the class. It was a nightmare.

Don't listen to everyone else, his class is so easy, gives out so much extra credit and makes the class very easy to learn, if you have anything below an A that is ridiculous.

There was a lot of times he made me walk out of class and made me cry. Give me a hard time as well as my classmates in class made me wanna rip out my eye sockets. When I switch my advisor, my new advisor told me you should've dropped out this class you would not have passed.

While some may commend him for awarding high marks, what's truly “ridiculous” is the suggestion that we didn't earn an A. There were multiple instances where students observed behavior toward female classmates that felt inappropriate and unprofessional, further contributing to a negative and unsettling classroom environment.

When I told the professor I had an IEP, he ignored me, skipped over me in class, and treated me differently than my peers. He dismissed my emails asking for help, said I wasn't trying hard enough, and assured me I wouldn't fail—yet I did. He couldn't teach or support me effectively.

The professor knows how to make comments and make people feel bad. The professor was like a big bully that I probably dealt with back in high school. The professor also never taught anyone anything and made us pay $27 for a book that was poorly formatted. Don't waste your breath on this professor don't take any classes with him

As my advisor, he gave poor guidance and wasn't effective as a teacher. His methods often made students feel inadequate and disrespected treated us like garbage. I ended up dropping my major and him as an advisor, and I've since transferred to a different department.

That class felt like the Hunger Games. Whenever I struggled and asked for help, he told me to figure it out myself. He'd laugh when we got answers wrong and said he found it funny when we struggled. It was demeaning and made me sick to be in that environment.
