Tests a little hard, but he always gives a big curve
No Comments
his lectures are very thorough and he adds bonus pts to exam grades!
Good lectures, covers alot of info, even if you take good note, must review them
somewhat hard tests; gives big curves; intersting material
Very easy if you go to class and take good notes. Huge curves.
No Comments
Offers lots of extra credit at the end of the semester
horribly insulting to my intelligence. talks to class like you're in fourth grade. if you want toget your money's worth and LEARN something don't waste your time.
Hard to stay awake, allows 5 absences, 3 exams, 3 quizzes, always curves, not very interesting class but not one you really have to worry about, offers extra credit at end of course
Offers extra credit, open book quizes, allows 6 absences
He's a good guy, and although class can get a little boring, he means well. You'll learn even if you don't pay attention like me, but you'll come out of the class with an A. That's all that counts
take this guy.. hes the man.. class can get boring but its worth the tremendously easy A
Kinda boring. Sometimes uses good examples to explain things. You must purchase the atlas that he "recommends" or you will do poorly on the take home atlas quizzes (trust me). Good chance to catch up at the end of the semester with extra cred
Class is a piece of cake if you go and take notes. Test Material is all from the Book. Curves a lot! Quizes are open notebook. Def a good class for Gen ED.
EXTREMELY BORING. Strictly lecture, no class interaction at all. Very difficult to take notes from. Difficult test. Poor study guides. No in class reviews. Little to none extra credit. Do not take a class with this professor. He is possibly the wo
I don't know what everyone is complaining about. My test average for the semester was 104%. It doesn't get easier than this class.
boring as hell, but easy
VERY EASY CLASS, EASY TEACHER. TAKES ATTENDANCE, BUT TESTS ARE ALL OFF OF HIS NOTES. GO TO CLASS AND YOU WILL BE FINE. EASY FOR A GEN ED.
All lecture, but the people who say it's boring are the people who either don't come to class or fall asleep. Don't listen to them, this class is very interesting, and Prof. Schupple is a great instructor.
Tests are kinda hard and a little different from what he talks about in class. take notes. always takes attendance. very interesting and fun to listen to
kinda boring but he means well. he's a very nice man. his class is strictly lecture, but he gives open book quizes and a take home and offers extra credit. it's an easy class. the only way you cant pass is if you never show up.
He is not to hard. Quizes are open book and open notes. Tests are not easy but not hard. He gives good curve to equal the test out. Class is a little bring but to so bad. Go to class and do moderate amout of study for tests and easy B moreately easy A
Great teacher. Loves to Curve tests therefor its hard to fail
This class was really good and for the most part easy. He does curve tests, which boosts the grade a little. Also, he offers extra credit at the end of the semester. Good class!
you have to be retarded to not pass this class. he rediculously curves every test, open book/note quiz, and extra credit. i went to class a total of 4 times the whole semester, studied a total of 30min for the entire course, and did fine.
so easy, all you have to do is go to class
schupple is cute (not hot, but cute!) and can be funny. always starts class by saying "GOOD morning!" he is an articulate speaker and a great lecturer. will always help you. seems like he has a very structured life and is very organized. well traveled throughout the US. tells interesting stories. NICE MAN>>GOOD CLASS!
Henry Shrupple is a very good professor. His notes are always well organized and he ellaborates and clarifies things. He hands out study guides for his test. He is one of the most organized and helpful teachers I had at Towson so far. If you simply take notes which he writes down and study from the study guides you will do very well.Great Pro.
Funny and well informed. He makes the class very interesting. The class is damn easy because he practically gives you the test on the review.
Very smart teacher, nice, and funny. Very easy A if you go to class. I will take him for geography again.
I generally liked him, lectures were very clear, and easy to follow. I'm convinced ExxonMobile pays him for his global warming lecture, which is sickening to me that i paid to be lied to.
He loves appreciating geologic time, global warming as a natural process that got rid of the ice age and the geography of MD. Awesome guy. I learned a lot about monsoons, weather and the seasons.
Dr. Schupple is a nice man and if you're interested in physical geography, he is a great person to ask. The class is comprised of a number of labs, that you get tested on once during the midterm, and again for the final. The labs are pseudo-fun, and if you have a good group, you'll be fine. You'll also have a presentation to give with your group.
As much as this guy is boring, you need to stay awake or prepare to see your A fly away. His tests are taken from lecture, so you need to take down what he writes. The textbook only provides support for what he says in class and is not enough for the tests, some of the stuff can't even be found in the text.
A horrible professor who fails to plan properly and generally does not engage the students. If you like lectures on material you know from 9th grade (or just want an easy A [you do have to go per his policies] for your GPA) then this is your class. Avoid this professor! Don't let him ruin geography for you, take a class with Schmitz.
Show up to class, take notes, review notes before the test, and you'll get an A. Grades on a curve for all those who don't bother showing up but works to my benefit since I have over a 100% in the class. A review of high school earth science. It's great.
Extremely easy class. I have 120% in the course. Show up for the review before the tests and he will give you all the answers. This should be a middle school level class.
To get a good grade just show up. He tells you the first day you should only use book if you do not understand what he says in class. He is very direct and tells you exactly what you need to know. If you get a low grade its because you didn't show up for class. He is approachable outside of class and wants everyone to do well.
hes nice but doesn't not care if you are deathly ill. no absence is excused even with a doctors note. he talks about nothing all class then gives you a study guide for the test on things you never talked about in class. no hw or reading. 3 exams, 3 take home or open book quizzes. even tho they are take home, they are really hard and take hrs.curves
easiest class EVER!! just show up and write what he writes on the chalkboard. its the test and quiz exactly. easy grader, he curves, i have like 110%. and he knows his stuff, show up before test witthe study guide done and he will give you the right answers that you dont know. TAKE HIM
Nice guy, curves like crazy and doesnt gives minuses, but gives some of the hardest take home test and the answers you could not find in the book. Oh and he doesnt let you out early, but pretty easy
Pretty Easy!!! He gives huge curves on all his exams and quizzes ... so you really can't fail unless you never come to class and take notes. Also all his exams are from the notes you take .. the text book is just a back up if you don't understand the discussion. so in my opinion if your broke .... don't buy a text book! lol! You can't fail!
SOOO EASY! Loved his class, super easy, just show up and take notes. I was wary about this class before taking it but his tests are easy and his curves are huge, I'd always end up getting over 100 even if I originally got a B. Take him!
Class consisted of a very long 2 and a half hour boring lecture (summer class). He doesn't give you the answers to the quiz and tests which gave the students no clue on how to improve. No enthusiasm.
Take him! I only got a C+ because I'm terrible at looking things up in an atlas and I didn't study enough for tests. If you study for everthing its an easy B. If your good in geog or study hard its an easy A. He explains material well and knows his stuff. Good class to take for gen ed.
GREAT professor his quizzes are open not and open atlas. he gives review guides for everything and we barely made it through through less than half the material on the course outline. Very easy only bad thing was it was an 8am.
great teacher!! i recommend taking him. i wasn't good at geography and hadn't taken it in high school but prof schupple makes everything so easy! quizzes are all open note and he basically gives you the test answers on review day.
AMAZING teacher! And he is such a sweet man! Tells cute little jokes here and there. All quizzes are open note so they are a breeze. If you take his 3 hour lecture you get 2 brakes which add up to 30 minutes...it's so nice! I have hated geog until this teacher, he goes on about interesting topics so the class isn't too boring. Take him!
mega easy
Follow his study guides and you will do fine. He is very boring (he knows it too) but this class is pretty easy and perfect for gen-ed credit. He's very smart, he basically gives history/current event lessons on every place he talks about, which can be interesting.
I absolutely love him. Very easy if you pay attention and he has the best ways of describing difficult concepts.
Very good professor. Class is very straight forward. If you take notes and study them you will do well on the tests. You need the text book for open book quizzes. He curves tests big time (I got a 76 on two of the tests that were turned into 95s). Big extra credit assignment at end of semester. I would definitely recommend him.
This class was VERY boring but the professor was a nice guy.He gave 3 open note quizzes and 3 exams. He always gave out study guides so just pay attention in class and follow the study guide and you will do fine.He gave out a 50 point extra credit at the end of the semester.
His class was a breeze. Just come to class take notes and you will pass ! 3 open book exams and 3 test that is it !! Some optional extra credit !!! HE CURVES TEST !!!! I got an A but you will do some work and studying
Professor Schupple is very good! Class is very easy, with only 3 open notebook/book/atlas quizzes and 3 tests. Extra credit is also given, and the curves he puts on his tests bring studnents grades up more than a letter grade! Very easy class to take and get an A. Take him if your looking for an easy class!!
I can not really say enough about this professor. He is a really nice guy who is so interested in students success. all of the quizzes are open noted and none of the examinations are very hard at all as long as you study for a bit prior to the test or quizzes. He also offers a HUGE extra credit opportunity at the end of the semester if you need it.
Very nice professor. Is willing to help students before/after class and cares about their success. Curves most tests and quizzes are open note. A little boring if youre not interested in the subject, but not too bad. Definitely take him if you need an easy class.
By far my favorite prof. at towson. he is such a good teacher and he loves what he is teaching. incredibly funny and super nice. never any homework, but sometimes there are some test questions that are a bit tricky. Good news is that he curves the tests and quizzes like its his job. TAKE THIS PROFESSOR FOR ANY CLASS!
There's nothing like having a teacher who actually wants his students to learn. Even if you come 30 minutes late, you should still come to his class. He's sweet, yet boring LOL.
such an annoying class, so many test and quizzes. stay away from him!!!
He is an excellent professor. I did not find him boring and I found it refreshing that when he was talking about climate change, he was rational in discussing it. It helps that he is a global warming skeptic. It should be easy to get an A as long as you put a little effort in studying the material.
Great prof, willing to make sure everyone gets a good grade. Easy class, gives study guides and curves tests. Interesting too if you love learning about Baltimore
His GEOG102 was easier than a high school class. Literally no homework the entire semester, minus studying for tests. All quizzes are open note/book, and all exams and quizzes have a huge curve on them. He presents the information clearly and you can tell he actually knows what he's talking about. Take his GEOG102 class for an easy pre-req.
Everything sticks to the syllabus that he provides so there are no surprises. The course is graded on tests and quizzes, but there is extra credit offered which is helpful. Gives out study guides based off the test structure. Attendance is not mandatory, but you still sign in which will push you up if you're inbetween grades if you attend.
He's the man. Tests and quizzes are easy. everything comes from lectures. Keeps it interesting ALWAYS. I actually look forward to his class. Attendance is not mandatory but he still takes it just for another reason to give you extra credit-which there's a lot of. Tests and quizzes are curved a lot. He ROCKS
This class was so annoying. 4 exams and 3 open note quizzes but he didn't cover even half the material on each so you have to learn yourself. On the plus side, he always curves it. He talked about the weather outside for 20 minutes before each class and that was annoying too. It's not too hard to get an A but its just an annoying class.
3 open note/book quizzes, 2 exams, final exam. You need to go to class and take good notes. He doesn't cover some material on the quizzes and tests but he always curves. He's extremely boring. I don't recommend having him in the morning if you're not a morning person. He rambles a lot. He has a 50 pt assignment for the semester.
This class is really good. The key to acing it is taking VERY good notes. You do that, and you won't even need the book. 3 tests, 3 open book quizzes and a 50 points EXTRA CREDIT ASSGN at the end of the semester. Professor Schupple is a great teacher; his curves bring up the class average from a 70 to a 90. Highly Recommend!
Schupple is a nice guy but very boring. I took this class to fill a core and it is a pretty easy non lab science. He curves everything which makes it easy to do well with little effort if you go to class. Take him if you can
Professor Schupple may be a bit boring but I thoroughly enjoyed his class, his quizzes are open book and note and gives study guides before the test and everything is covered in lecture. just pay attention to his lectures and write everything down and you'll be golden
Attendance is recorded. BORING lectures. Tests are hard... but he curves!!! Quizzes are open book.
I had this class as an 8am & it was my easiest class all semester. Attendance is recorded, but not mandatory. 3 exams including the final & 3 open note quizzes. He curves everything & gives a study guide before each exam. Offers a 50 point extra credit assignment at the end of the semester. Only work outside of class is studying for the exams.
This was the easiest class I had all semester. It was easier than some classes I took in high school to be completely honest. He's a very nice guy but the subject is just so dry... There's only so much he can do. Exams are easy, quizzes are open book, 50 point extra credit at the end of the semester. If you don't pass, you shouldn't be in college.
Schupple was the best professor for geography! His lectures are interesting and he always has stories, and he makes jokes during class. He's very clear when he is teaching. Three tests (including the final) and he gives you a study guide, and 3 open note, open book quizzes, and a 50 pt. extra credit at the end! He's nice, and curves everything!
Took this class to fulfill a core so I wasn't interested. Lectures are a drag and you actually have to study. Only assignments are 3 quizzes, 3 tests and 50 point extra credit essay at the end. If you don't test well, don't take this class. Not much reading but attendance is a must!
He tests his students on material that may not be completely covered BUT he does curve the quizzes and exams! 3 quizzes, 3 exams (including final) and he gives an up to 50 point extra credit assignment! I found this class overall easy but sort of a lull to get through.
Great Professor, was there every class. Lectures are very interesting but being early in the morning they can get boring. Gives extra credit and curves tests. This class should be an easy A as long as you take good notes and come to class, something is wrong if you get a C or below. Oh yeah, quizzes are open book, take him!
He does not utilize blackboard at all so if you miss lecture even once, you will not have all the notes. His power points also do not contain all the information. His lectures are boring and often times go off topic. His quizzes and exams require word to word memorization instead of testing the ability to understand the geography context.
Professor Schupple does not use blackboard at all and it was not a problem. We had to purchase an atlas and a geography textbook. We had 3 open note quizzes, 2 exams, 1 writing project, one extra credit project, and a final. The class was not difficult at all. He is always available to help you in his office before class or after class also.
take him if you can. easy material, easy everything. the only way you can fail is by not being there for class. he doesn't use blackboard but the information is really easy to get down in class. half the time he says you don't even have to take notes on what he is teaching, he just teaches it to teach it.
Professor Schupple's class is a drag. His lectures are very dull and does not use Blackboard. His class consists of 2 quizzes, 3 tests, written assignment, and extra credit. He's very boring and most things in class are not relevant to tests. Must purchase Atlas.
Professor Schupple's class is simply structured. 3 Tests (including final), 2 quizzes (open note), one writing assignment and an extra credit project. Your grade in this class is dependent on how well you do on the Tests (which he curves all the time). Overall, interesting class and if you put in the work to study, you should get an A.
One of the greatest professors I have had! He gives out a lot of extra credit and curves his tests and quizzes. He also allows you to retake the quizzes towards the end of the semester. He also makes cheesy jokes here and there! A really nice professor!

Professor Schupple is a lecture heavy teacher. all you need to do is take notes and you will pass the test (so make sure you have a friend for when you miss). He is pretty funny and offers 5 extra credit questions at the end. 2 open note quizzes, 3 tests, and 1 writing assignment, all are very easy. He also adds a MASSIVE curve to each test.
Lectures are dry and boring but its an easy core and he wants you to pass. gives extra credit
I would not recommend this professor. Not accessible outside of class. He does not use blackboard at all. Your grade is made up of tests and nothing else. Take it with another professor.
I took this class to fulfill a core. Schupple was extremely vague and his lectures contained little to no important content. The tests were extremely hard and over-the-top. He offers extra credit though at the end, which is a very writing intensive assignment. If you want an easy A core class, don't take this.
Must attend every class, attendance is required & teacher doesn't use BlackBoard. For a freshman level core class, this is upperclass major specific material. Cumulative final exam weighs a ton!
Professor Schupple is a nice man but makes this entry level core class hard. If you want an easy class without doing much work this class is not for you. He makes you work for it. There's no homework so the class is very test heavy. If you take this class make sure you try to attend every class.
First Summer class I took & would definitely take him again. Funny & informative. Tells lots of stories that break down things to help you understand. He takes attendance and does not post on BB. 1 paper, 3 quizzes and 2 exams. And extra credit prepares you for the final so do it and you'll get an easy A!
I took his class for the minimester. Worth it. Offered three exams, all straight from the study guide, and even offered extra credit for the final. B/c the way minimesters work, you wouldn't want to miss class. As long as you took the class notes, then you'll answer the study guide, and from that, you should pass exams. 10/10 would def take again.
Such a nice guy. No homework other than an EASY project, and extra credit if you choose. 3 quizzes, 3 tests (he gives you study guides for them with the exact topics on the exams). Just study before tests and you'll surely get at least a B
Nice guy but he convolutes info and uses terms specific to him. Theres 3 somehow-difficult open-note quizzes and 3 hard exams. He gives heavy curves to reflect better grades. The class is heavy with Schupples critique of Towsons diff. departments and the class is disorganized with unclear grading criteria. No Blackboard & he randomly omits material
He is a nice professor but he doesn't post anything on blackboard. His notes are on a powerpoint he presents everyday in class but some of his notes doesn't explain or show how to answer some questions of the quiz or exam which are very hard. His quizzes are open note but it is still hard. He gives a study guide for the quiz and exam and curves it.
Schupple is the best!!! Such a nice guy, very mellow, very informative, obviously passionate about what he does! there are three open note quizzes and you can have your textbooks too, super easy! curves all the tests ive ended up with over 100 on all of them!! never have homework! great class for a core or for fun!!!
Just go to class and take notes and you'll pass. Doesn't post lectures on blackboard. Graded by a few exams, quizzes and one paper but they're pretty easy if you use the study guide and go to class. He lets you retake some quizzes and tells some cool stories. Adds a HUGE curve to some of the exams! Easy A and you'll learn a lot.
Taking this class to fulfill a core requirement, and it's not at all what I thought. It's easily my favorite class. Schupple makes the lectures really interesting and easy to follow. He tells you exactly what's gonna be on the exams, so study for two or three hours and you're guaranteed an A. Quizzes are occasional and open note. TAKE THIS CLASS!!
He is sweet as can be and compassionate. If you show up to class and take notes on his lectures you will pass. His tests are based solely on what we talk about in class. It is not a difficult class, if you show up. He is willing to sit down with you and work through your problems. BTW: you will need to buy or rent an atlas for this class.
From what I've read about Prof Schupple on here, he seems like a good professor to have in person. But with online courses, he does not have live classes. I don't even know what he looks like. He sends out emails every week about what we need to read for the next quiz/exam. The only things I was graded on were a few quizzes and exams.
I don't know how he is in person, but Professor Schupple did not hold lectures this semester (not even on Zoom) and did not really reply to emails. He mainly left my class to our own devices and we basically had to teach ourselves. Only five assignments were graded this semester. There was really no structure to his class and no motivation to work.
As long as you take notes and show up, you'll definitely pass with an A. His quizzes and tests were all online and take-home, and all straight from the notes. The class can be a little boring but you gots to see it through my boi.
Professor Schupple is a great choice for GEOG101 and I would recommend him if you need a easy core class. He often tells stories and rambles on about other things besides material but he is truly interested in this subject, very respectable. 3 Exams, and 3 Quizzes. (All online) If you flunk a quiz he will allow you to retake 1! Really nice guy
This man is adorable. Come to class because the tests/quizzes (which are online) come right from the notes. He says to read the text book but I don't think anyone did and we all passed with ease. Classes can be a little boring but he loves what he teaches. 100000% would take again. No homework either. This class is impossible to fail.
Def take Schupple if you need an easy core! Geography isnt hard and if youre like me, most was stuff I learned back in elementary school. Very sweet man and is very passionate about this subject. Go to class to copy down the pp's cuz theyre not posted, quizzes and exams are straight off the notes!! lectures can be boring, but easy to get through
He was a very chill dude, but his class just wasn't for me and I ended up withdrawing from it. Your grade in this class is based only a few things and that's it. I found this class boring, but that may just be me. He reads off the board and you copy it for your notes. He sometimes tells some cool stories. Overall, cool guy but boring subject.
I liked him. I recommend him for everyone I know who needs the core - but he does read off his slides so it can be boring. But if you spend like ten extra minutes studying or doing the work you will be fine.
This class was boring and he teaches off the PowerPoint. You need the book for exams/quizzes which is the only thing your graded on. So be mindful of that, if you fail one you might not recover. I wouldn't recommend this class.
He was great - could retake test and offered extra credit. Great class to fulfill core requirement.
As a first year college student, I recommend this course if you want an easy core credit tackled for your first semester. I already have a background in physical geography through years of studying environmental science in grade school, so I have a leg up, but as long as you dedicate an hour a week to study the material, very easy A or high B.
Very easy class. You spend almost all of class taking notes off his powerpoint and lecture, and all the test questions come from the lecture. No homework except for one easy assignment. Friendly teacher and easy A.
Go to class, if you miss more than 5 classes its automatically 10% off your final grade. There is also very few assignments, 2 tests, 2 quizzes and 1 writing assignment but he does offer extra credit at the end. He doesn't walk around while you take your test and quizzes so do what you want with that information.
Best prof ever for core 7/8! Go to class, take notes, & fill out his study guides for tests. Super straightforward & provides many extra credit opportunities! He curves tests too, so he makes it as easy as possible to get an A! I literally got a 104% in the class because of it. I wish every science prof was like him.
Prof was easy and you can tell he genuinely loves the topic. Only graded on a few quizzes and tests. Don't buy the textbook instead buy an atlas because you'll need that. Open note quizzes. Copy down his powerpoint slides for your notes. Super easy class for satisfying the core. Definitely take him if you're looking for an easy core credit!
This man was a terrible teacher! attendance was mandatory, and his teaching style is reading off the powerpoint and expecting us to get everything while ZOOMING thru the slides. Plus the things on the study guide aren't even on the test. Terrible experience.
Not a bad course. Lots of information but professor gives LOTS of opportunity for extra credit so it really is possible to get a good grade even if you fail an exam.
Literally the worst, he only grades few things and definitely a tough grader. Please don't take this class it was the only class I failed this semester every others were A's. He reads of slides and never engages with student, also couldn't hear him clearly cause he wore a mask so it was all just muffled. JUST MAKE SURE YOU DON'T TAKE HIS CLASS
Supposed to be an easy class but it was very hard with him. Most of his notes are things he says and you have to just listen and write what he says, which was difficult because he wore a mask the whole semester and I could not hear anything he said even though I was right in front of him.
Great teacher! I honestly didn't do too good on the quizzes/exams and still ended with an A because he gives so many opportunities for extra credit. No homework, just lecture. Can get boring but he's really passionate about geography and you can tell so its sweet
Prof taught with slideshow that didn't have much detail, class is exam based which for me personally was hard, he wore a mask making it hard to hear the lecture, he did provide extra credit which helped me pass the class though!
Oh where do I begin. I'd give him 0 stars if I could. Thinks that he is above my DOCUMENTED disability accommodations, had to fight to use my accommodations. Doesn't use Blackboard, doesn't respond to emails, needs physical copies of everything. Did not take my doctors note when I had covid. Made his make-up exam time at SIX IN THE MORNING. 0/5.
awful professor. pretty much wants you to fail. The quizzes and exams are basically the only grades and he has content that has not even been taught on them. Posts no slides or any content. Blackboard will have the syllabus and nothing else. He thinks this is the epitome of your college career. do not take this class with schupple.
No powerpoints are posted, nothing will even be posted on blackboard but the syllabus. He hands out an exam review but it's just a sheet of paper with like 60 terms on it and no actual review content on it and you essentially have to guess which of those terms will be on the test. Literally the only grades are tests and it's impossible to pass.
lots of lectures and can barely hear the professor most of the time due to old age and wearing a mask. other than that professor is very interesting to learn from and you might learn a thing or two about the history of random things. Very little assignments: two quizzes and two exams not including the final and one take home writing assignment.
Not a difficult class if you find it easy to listen boring lectures. The concepts themselves are easy, but you must pay close attention and take notes. Most of it is memorization. Not a great class to take first thing in the morning. Make a friend and share notes. He does not respond to emails lol.
The class is not difficult; however, if you miss a day, you're out of luck as he doesn't post slides. Go to the class, and you should be fine. When studying, be very specific because some questions are hyperspecific on quizzes and exams. Extra credit is also available near the end of the semester, which is helpful. He also sometimes curves quizzes.
Professor Schupple's GEO101 is a mixed bag - lectures can be dry, but he gives plenty of extra credit to boost your grade. Unstuck study was a lifesaver for test prep!
As long as you lock in on the tests you'll get an A for sure. Tests are hard tho however there is so much extra credit and it is extremely clutch. Just take notes in class and use them to study you should be fine.
He was a cool professor. Clear about his expectations and had study guides for tests and quizzes. Just chill and simple.
He was a chill professor. Attend the classes and you will get the information you need.
Professor Schupple is kind and knowledgeable about the topics he covers, but the exams and quizzes are not like the study guide. Usually consists of 50 multiple-choice/fill-in-the-blank questions that are hyperspecific and difficult to understand. Confusing grader, wrote 4 pages for our writing assignment when only 2 were required, got a D. Be wary
I hated this class so much because if you expect to get any sort of response from him in e
Boring Professor, Not available online at all to the point that he says he will not respond to emails at all, nothing on blackboard, boring lectures often with little substance, made a 50 minute class feel like it was 2 hours long. Every Assignment which are 1 writing assignment, 2 quizzes and 2 exams is on paper like in high school. 1/10 Class
