Dickinson is a horrible professor! There's way too much work and he doesn't care about his students at all. If you want to take forensic psyc, take Professor Indelicato instead- he cares about his students and is really funny, plus he's a hottie!
I find Professor Dickinson VERY helpful... he answers all my questions clearly and he has a great sense of humor. Overall his classes are interesting and mind stimulating and he is just basically a really good teacher. and he's not too bad to look at too!
Professor Dickinson is a great professor. He really makes class enjoyable and he is a total hottie". And all he talks about is sex obviously so he's even hotter. This guys is too hot to be my teacher!!!! all his girl students are always checking him out. If he only knew. Wait he does .LOL :)
So far Professor Dickinson has been very helpful,very funy, very clear, and very stimulating!Last but not least, he is a very good looking man which makes it even more interesting looking at him while he talks about sex. I hope to have him again in the future. I would most definitely reccomend him!
Really interesting and amusing. He's really young for a professor so he still understands what it's like to be a student. He's fair and tells you what you need to know. He tries to make the best out of big seminar classes too, and doesn't have an attendance policy. Take him. Sooooo cute!
He does his lectures with power point presentations which I think is great because while he talking to you, you do not miss out on any notes. He's cool, and he expects you to keep up with the lectures if you are absent. He is also extremely nice to look at.
He is SO hot, first of all. There are 3 tests and 3 quizzes, but he drops the lowest quiz. He also offers and extra credit paper. I loved his class and he is so funny when he teaches. Hes a really cool professor, since he is young and understands what its like to be a student. TAKE HIM!!
Great teacher. Makes the class fun and interesting. Highly recommended.
he is an alright professor,the only reason why it was so easy was because he didnt know he was gonna teach the class, so he didnt have time to prepare.not too bad, ive had worse, but dont believe the hype about him being hot. yes, hes young, but hes also short,bald,and wears clothes 5 times his size
I worked so hard in this class, yet got a C+. He might be a hottie but his grading system SUCKS! His looks isn't going to get me a degree. Half the class failed the final, figure out what that tells you about Him.
Good Teacher, I really liked the use of power point. It made it easier to look at notes during class while he was explaining the topics. He's not always at his office hours, but if you tell him you are coming, he'll be there to help.
Good Prof. Not to hard I got an A and I only studied a bit before class. I rarely showed up to class and still got an A. He is a good teacher no matter what anyone on here posts. You'd have to not even look at your book to get a C in this class.
This professor is very straight-forward. The exams are directly from the reading assignments and class lectures. If you fail the class you probably deserve the failing result, since he is clear as to what needs to be done. I recommend taking this professor if he is an option.
He's very smart,friendly,helpful, & understanding. He's fun,adds a personal touch to the class with his stories. He's a great person when you get to know him & he really knows what he's talking about. Very intelligent! He makes the class time go by quickly. Take his classes if you can!
3 exams, 1 quiz every Friday. (2 lowest quizzes are dropped) No textbook required.. just 2 small novel type books. and YES he is a cutie
Class starts off really boring, but it gets cooler as the semester goes on. pay attention because there are LOTS of quizzes
took class to fill a gap in my shedule, so glad I did. I went home after each class telling ppl what I learned, I found it amazing to be able to make connections.He knows his subject inside & out, makes learning so much fun and interesting. First prof. in 4 years I thought tried to connect w student

class is kinda boring, and you don't use 1/2 the stuff you buy. quizzes and tests are hard. good videos though
Extremely interesting class,highly recommended to everyone who is interested in subject.Prof. is smart,funny and HOT.His presentations are really helpful, looking foward to another class with him.
This is a very interesting class and Dickinson makes it even better with his "when I lived in Miami" stories. He knows what he is taking about and class is definately NOT boring.
Very interesting class and he is a great professor haven't had a boring class yet. A lot of note taking and we havent used these keypad things he wanted us to get but other than that i deffinately recommend him.
Hes an awesome professor. not a bird course though, 3 quizzes, 3 exams and a paper. u have to be there to learn nething. lots of notes but u learn so much. its an awesome course, def. recommend it to anyone! no attendance policy. plus hes really hot. take him ladies!
Professor Dickinson mostly used powerpoint notes to teach the class, and I found that most of the information I had already learned in other psych classes. But he is really hot and pretty funny so I enjoyed the class. I agree with the "When I lived in Miami" stories and videos being a bonus.
He is abs. great, on top of being EXTREMELY CUTE... the subj. was very interesting, uses a lot of power point, well everything is power point, and it requires for you to study for the course, 3 quizes 3 exams, and a paper. So if you want an easy "A" not the class, if you wanna learn adn earn your "A
I can't really say much about what I learned in his class. I guess it's because I was too busy staring at him! However, what I do know is that although he gives a lot of work, he's a fair professor with good intentions. I'd absolutely recommend his class to anyone.
Great professor, teaching skills are very hulpful. He is always concerned about students and is always ready to help at any circunstance. I would recommend anyone to take it, but come prepared to work. Oh, he is very cute too..

calm down girls, he's not that hot...tests can be hard, but it's possible to get an A, come to class and read the book
He is the best professor I've had at MSU! Very interesting material, very fun class, take him!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's HOT and his class is very interesting, enlightening, and pretty easy. Tests are somewhat tricky but very doable if you study. EASY paper. Take Dr. Dickinson for everything you can!!
No Comments
I have just started taking Professor Dickinson's class and he is already really interesting and the material is extremely thought provoking. It also helps that he's completely sexy and a total hottie. He even is alittle distracting.Professor Dickinson, Stop coming to class looking so good. Your making it hard to pay attention to the material!!!LOL.
He's great and really cute too
Great class even if the AC sucks. Learned alot in a short time without the effort.

Well,lets just say that the man is not only a great prof but he is also one heck of a sexy man.If you need help, go ask, no matter how big the class might be he explains and speaks to you.He makes things as simple so just do exactly what he says in class and you will be fine.Did I mention that you can't look at him for to long?You'll stop listening
wow!!! very interesting to listen to, always has some personal story to keep class interested. i found that all quiz's were easy, but tests were tricky. paper is 5 pgs, and ultra simple. would definitely take him again, but i'm afraid i wouldn't be able to concentrate, being that he is so yummy !!! did i mention he was HOT!!! a++++++ in my book!!

While I didn't find him particularly attractive (sorry) this was definitely my favourite class thus far at MSU. Super interesting and not too hard if you read the material well. One easy paper and 3 exams, lots of quizzes (which is good), and he's always around to talk to or email. Definitley recommended. A++
he is hot hot hot very hot. i dont belief in interracial relation ship but i make the exception when it come to him he is sexy .he teaches the right subject for his hotness
Fair and clearly spoken,only exams and no papers. Classes meeting once a week are Highly reccommended. Also, its interesting field..... But hes not so hot
You will have to work for your grade so be prepared for a quiz EVERY WEEK! His exams are tough even if you read things over and over, but I think his class is well worth the effort. It really felt like a college class and never stopped holding my attention! I'm glad he found his way to MSU!
He clearly knows the material, but on a test he expects you to know it as well as he does. Plus he doesn't really review, so read the book and study your notes thoroughly.
Very smart funny and HOT guy. Its hard to concentrate in class when he's talking about sex and orgasms cuz it makes you want to leave class and take him with you! But the class is very interesting...lots of quizzes and test but ull be fine if u study...soooo HOTTT
To be perfectly honest yes he is great to look at but if you can pull yourself away from his looks for a long enough period of time you will be amazed.This man really knows what he is talking about. I have taken him several times for one reason only.He teaches me what I need to know to be prepared.And did I mention it was nice looking into eyes.
Great teacher. He really knows his stuff and he keeps his classes interesting, even though the subject matter makes some immature students laugh. The class is definitely not an easy A, but if you read the chapters in the book and review all your notes, you should do OK.
No Comments
This class is very interesting. The quizzes and test are easy if you study your notes and read over the chapters (the reading is very boring). I jus didnt like him he had a very cocky attitude, but besides that if u want and easy A or B I'd take this class.
great class, good looking prof. too! interesting info, awesome video's & the professor is very knowledgeable!
No Comments
He was an awesome professor. He is goodlooking but that does not take away from being a great professor. His quizzes and tests were reasonable is you only studied. There were people I assume didn't do so well because they were to busy trying to get his attention. Wake up girls he'll never pay mind to you. I would take him again he was respectful an
Great professor!!! As distracting as he was (with those pretty eyes and great personality) the class was very interesting, and I learned alot from him
No Comments
Great professor!! He's good looking, smart and knows his stuff! Class is easy if you pay attention and study. Very highly recommended . . .
very interesting to listen to. he knows his material. tests are not so easy, just make sure u study everything! he has a great grading system. also, to keep the tradition alive, yeah he's hot! hard to concentrate when he's teaching, though.
No Comments
umm. everyone says hes hot..which is true, but u can tell he knows it and lives for it. ugh vomit.anyway. i thought the class was going to be easy but it was hard...if it wasn't for the open book final at the end i woudln't have passed. other than that, attendance isn't mandatory..and at least hes good to look at.
No Comments
Reading material a bit much for someone who is hardly ever teaching the class. Not clear on testing material. over rated professor!
i took him becuz of his excellent review from this site, but i was dissappointed. all he does is read his power point and talks about himself going to drink or getting ****. i didnt learn much from him at all. waste of time, but EASY A
Very intelligent guy, considerate and helpful. Too much emphasis placed on looks and not on the guy's qualities. he's a real nice guy but too many immature little girls have much to say about nothing.
this guy is great no book everything is on blackboard. all you have to do is go to class and take notes. test are easy if you study.

Prof. Dickinson is a great teacher. He explains everything in details and applies it well. His tests and quizzes are challenging, but as long as you study your notes and material, you'll be fine. If you want a challenge, take his class
I have just started taken a class with Pr.Dickinson. He is the best at MSU. His lectures are very interesting,he knows material and presents it very well. He is very intelligent, cares about students; I highly recomend to take this class. I come to his class motivated and eager to learn new material.Oh!! His eyes will take your breath away..sexy m
there is lots of material and the tests are not easy but getting an A is possible
Please, material is too much. strict grader!!!!!
He is extremely easy to look at and has awesome eyes! But!! - I studied really hard for 3 weeks and he didn't help curve anything.. even tho I participated the most!! I didn't do as well as I thought and his lectures don't add up to what his tests are on.. be prepared to know everything he knows.. tests are really not based on notes!
goodlookin and cocky doesnt do it for me....otherwise good teacher quizes from material he taught, exams def tries to throw u off didnt like that my classes average was a B said it was to high??? who knows
Being pretty bad at math, I was nervous about taking this course. But, he taught psych stats in such a way that it was hard NOT to understand it. Three quizzes, three tests, no paper. Take him.
had a 3wk forensic psych class with him... very interesting but we studied our a***s off and it paid off, def. recommend if you are willing to work
good looking :) but very interesting course and a good teacher for it which makes it easy.
I listened to this professor's rebuttal online, and yes, the reading material is too much. Not only that, but this instructor has a poor attitude towards the students.
the professor is a great teacher. His forensic psychology class was extremely interesting. It was challenging, but some of the best classes you take will be. He found ways to make the material as clear as possible and also used his personal life to illustrate some points, which i found both entertaining and effective.
3 week summer course - I was doing really well up until he cancelled class one day towards the end and classes were shorter than normal. didn't do so well on the last test because everything was based on listening to him. But he was so interesting and is a good professor. Extremely cute and definitely knows what he's talking about. Take him
I took Prof. ****inson for Human Sexuality and Forensic Psych.He isn't easy but is very informative about the subjects studied in both courses.Reading is required being that there are quizzes almost every class.I would recommend him to anyone...also isn't too bad on the eyes
Not too bad...his class is not as hard as everyone says it is. He does try to get you to do bad on the first test and tries to scare you into coming to class everyday or you will fail. But, then doesn't give you credit for attending class. There is a lot of reading but its not too bad.
great teacher & very interactive, fun, up to date & gives you real life examples.. not that much reading but he said it was b/c he was busy w/ research during the semester.. No surprises w/ the course, tests can be tricky but it's not bad if you study the notes, &actually go to class for the education you are paying for!
Absurd. He's nothing special, educationally. I haven't learned anything I haven't already learned in Child Advocacy and The First 48 Hours. lol. AND, he aims to fail the class. He nonchalantly said "The average of my classes is typically a C." I consider someone who says that to be inconsiderate and obviously not interested in TEACHING.
Humnn where to start from. hes an extremely smart personalty and knows his****. He flirts with his students and so do students flirt back. well atleast we should get a good grade for flirting
Prof. ****inson knows his material. You'll learn a lot from his class. I would recommend this class and Forensics. You won't go home empty handed
Really interesting class...you'll learn a lot especially if you're actually interested in forensic psych. The prof knows his stuff although he comes off a little stuck up at times as a result. The class isn't impossible. I didn't put as much into studying as I should have, but I wound up with a B. I recommend this class.
Psych 330 was my last class before graduating, Professor ****inson made the class interesting and fun. He knows what he is talking about and also gave good Tips for real life situations. I would have enjoy taking other classes with him. I hope I find other teachers like him in my Grad school.
He is more interested in watching a person struggle than offering fair game. That mentality seems to grow wild at MSU..
Professor ****inson is a very smart man and he has the good looks to go with. He knows his stuff like the back of his hand. Yes, you do have to work, but, because the subject is so interesting and he teaches it so well. Taking his class is worth it. I recommend him any day!!!
his class is very interesting and he makes it so that you want to be there
one of the best teachers ive ever had. good looking, funny, and very clear. easy class but very very interesting. barely any homework and tests are easy if u just look over the notes. definitely take him!!!!
One of the best professors ever, really knows his stuff and makes it interesting.Go to class, pay attention, and read your notes and its an easy grade. I have been in Law Enforcement for 2 years and I learned more from his class about being a cop then on the streets. If your serious about psych or law enforcement, take the class.
Prfoessor ****inson makes the class material very interesting. Although attendance is not mandatory, you will find yourself going to every class anyway. I know I did! I don't know if it was because the class was so interesting or if it was because he's good looking...it was probably both! I would recommend this class to anyone!
veryyy awesome class!! interesting material, and he makes it interesting to learn. he teaches in a very clear way, and is to the point! his tests are very fair! i would recommend him to anyonee! plus he is cutee ;)
Wonderful man. I can't see enough good things about him. Just pay attention to his power points and you can't go wrong. I didn't touch the book the entire semester. He's pretty funny. A+ prof.
calm down he is not hot. and this class will definitely screw your gpa up!
awesome class. only professor at MSU that i really liked AND enojyed the class itself. The only way you could do badly in this class is if you have 0 interest in the topic to begin w/ and then just never go. all psyc majors should take him. seriously
Great professor
Loved him! He was crystal clear and his tests were really easy! You must have the book to study! Take him!
The best professor ever. He really knows what he is talking about. Love him.
Professor Dickinson is a great professor. I thoroughly enjoyed the class. He actually made the material interesting. Attendance is not mandatory either which is good, but you have to get the notes! The tests and quizzes are all from the notes!
This is an easy class. LOTS of notes (better to bring a laptop if you type fast). 3 tests, 3 quiz, all multiple choice mostly from the huge amount of notes but there are also very long boring readings. If you miss class better pray someone will email the notes to you. Overall class is interesting and easy, Dickinson seems like a pretty cool guy.
COOL GUY! JUST MAKE SURE YOU DO THE READINGS AND PAY ATTENTION AND TAKE NOTES TO THE LECTURES.
easyA! dont need book justtake really good notes bc everything he says in class is usually on the test, we only had 3 test 3 quiz and he dropped the lowest quiz grade the ?'s from the test/quiz are right from the notes so you do hav to go to class.my class was huge so he dnt take att, but u have to go ifu wnt good grade.loved the class!
Class definitely draws you in, he makes his class interesting and captivating. We watch good movies, he definitely knows what he's doing, and he wants you to be as interested in the subject as he is.
Easy on the eye! ;) very interesting class, layed back... Down to earth, & definetly knows his subject matter and makes learning come alive! Definetly take him you learn slot of sweet stuff!
he's the man! i'd def take him again
He is a great teacher and really knows what hes talking about. He is very sweet and actually cares about his students and wants them to do well. Everyone is definitely right about him being HOTT :) But I definitely recommend taking him if you want a prof. that is fair and isn't a strict grader
Awful professor. Do not take.
Awful professor. Does not care about students. Do not take.
Hard to concentrate because he is so sexy. And he's a very smart man which makes him even sexier :) If you want to learn a lot about forensic psychology, take the course.
GREAT CLASS!!!
This class was never boring, I was always interested in the material, and the way he presented it was easy to understand. Be prepared to write a lot of notes, and show up to every class. And if you want to get good grades you HAVE TO study, the tests are difficult. Otherwise hes a great guy, and I liked his class.
GREAT professor! really interesting class & he makes it fun and easy! he's such a cutie too! definitely recommend this class!
I've taken him twice for stats and forensics. He is great. If you want to do really well, read the book. You must take notes to pass and make sure you do the study guides he gives for stat exams, they are super helpful.
I'm currently taking him for the SU12 Pre-session online. He's simply amazing! He's kind & helpful. He makes class so much fun & interesting. I definitely recommend him; however, study, take & read the notes & articles there is no book for this class so it's a must! I've seen him in person, and yes he is as handsome as everyone has said he is!!
Took his online course for summer 2012.Professor was very cool, class fairly easy if you study must pass. Recorded lectures, make sure you listen to lectures they are what the exams and quizzes based on. Also a few videos to watch that aren't boring at all. First exam and quiz was tricking but if u study u will pass his course. No textbook.
(summer - online 3 week session) Listen to the online lectures, watch the videos, read the articles and you will do well. He is not the easiest instructor but he is certainly one of the best. I highly recommend taking Forensic Psych.
The class is very easy and he kept it interesting but he can not teach at all. I did not learn a single thing from him. I just taught myself using the textbook an got an A.
Took him for Forensic Psych and LOVED him. taking him again for psych 220. Funny and good at explaining and teaching. RECOMMENDED! take him if you can!
Loved! Hes funny, honest, answers questions clearly. Only graded on 3 quizzes (dropped the lowest grade) & 3 exams, no papers, mostly pwrpnts, some outside material like in class videos & articles on Blackboard, used txtbk but I got an A w/o really reading it. Go 2 class tho,he doesn't take attendance but u need 2 have the notes or u'll struggle
Great professor over all!
doesnt really care how students do in his class, I used to love the material but he made it so boring. attendance not mandatory but test are straight off lectures and powerpoints. no passion for the subject which is a shame but easy to pass if you go to class. no papers 3 quizzes and 2 test
He's a pretty interesting dude, but geez his tests and quizzes were so tricky. It's hard to fail this class because of his generous grading scale, but this class was still a killer for me..
Great professor! As long as you go to class and study there shouldn't be a reason to fail. The material is very interesting, you'll want to go to class!
Professor Dickinson is extremely fair. If you attend his classes and take the notes that you're supposed to be taking, he'll work with you and if not... well, be prepared to do poorly. Read the text! You'll get an easy A.
Very straightforward.. 3 multiple choice exams and 3 quizzes. Drops lowest quiz grade. Goes off lecture slides. Sometimes has very specific questions on exams, but he is always willing to answer questions. TAKE!
Amazing professor -- I've taken him a couple of times, and his passion and knowledge is impeccable. Plus he's such a cutie. Take his classes, you won't regret it!!
His teaching style is very clean and straight up. He doesn't make the work impossible or too easy.He makes it so that you can have a basic understanding and sort of demystifies the subject.If he sees that you try he works with you. He's also adorable super cute with dreamy blue eyes.I had him for both PSY 330 & PSY 203 I love him lol take him!
He bases your whole grade on two exams and nothing else. Also is very stuck up and has favorites. Students are worth more than a letter grade.
Such a good professor. Treats you like you're an adult; it's your responsibility to show up to class and pay attention, he won't make you do either…your grade will be the result. Material is so interesting that you want to go. Drops lowest quiz score, is extremely helpful, will answer any questions you have and is funny! Take him!
Not a fan. Bases your grade off 3 exams and 2 quizzes. Doesnt give out study guides, instead bases the exams off the chapters entirely. Pretty sure my GPA is lower now. Attendance not mandatory.
2 exams, 3 quizzes lowest quiz grade dropped. Tells you to read chapters and you will be okay for exams..not quite. This class definitely lowers gpa. A class you will struggle in.. He is NOT helpful, doesn't do extra credit or study guides!! do not take!
Just finished taking the online class, got an A. I learned a lot, but Forensic Psych is not at all what I expected it to be. Write down absolutely everything he says and everything in the slides, and take notes on the videos. 2 exams, 2 quizzes and he curves. However, he should consider not giving them so close together bc it's A LOT of material
GO TO CLASS!!!! Attendance isn't mandatory, but if you want to do well then it's in your best interest. He's straightforward, and gives you power point notes in each class. Pay attention, read the chapters and you'll do well. The class is interesting and I liked it a lot!
Great professor. Go to class, read the book/modules & you'll be fine. Class may seem hard at first but it's not once you understand the concepts. 3 Tests, 3 Quizzes (drops lowest grade). Tests are mult choice & entirely designed to test your understanding of concepts. PPTS not always based on the book & he doesn't post them online.
Very clear about how he grades and what is expected of you. Class was SO interesting. Read and go to class, you'll be fine. Exams are a little tough but if you went to class you'll be fine, he literally tells you what will be on the exam throughout his lectures, and he emphasizes what you have to know. I wish he taught more classes!!!!! TAKE HIM!!!
Take him for stats! The class is hard but stats is hard in general. He's a great professor, there's a quiz every week about 5 questions but you'll do fine as long as you READ THE CHAPTER!!!! If you don't understand something he'll explain it in class until everyone understands. Very flexible and gives a lot of help inside and outside of class time
One of the hardest classes I ever took. He doesnt give any extra credit and when you ask for help hell throw it in your face how you dont look at his conferences online. If you can avoid him do so. All he does is give quizzes and test thats what your grade is made up with no assignments
Avoid him at all costs!!!!!!!! His tests and quizzes are INSANELY hard! They are your ONLY grades too! Not a single paper or other assignment! He was a decent guy but a TERRIBLE PROFESSOR!!! also, he refused to post powerpoints online! The material was interesting but how he grades you on it is awful! I wish we had a paper to boost our grades!!!!
Everyone gives him a bad rep he's not a hard professor literally AT ALL. Granted yes, he has 3 quizzes and 3 exams but they're not that hard. Read the book, pay attention in class, and you'll do fine. Drops the lowest quiz grade. Doesn't post PowerPoints but if you pay attention he stays on each slide for twice as long as it takes to type them out!
super kind, cares a lot. 3 quizzes and 3 exams that you MUST study for(drops lowest quiz grade). Read the book, take notes, and pay attention and you will have no worries. Exactly what a 300 level psych class should be. Only downside is he does NOT post PowerPoints but you will have enough time to take down notes if you are paying attention
never gotten a D before in college(I've gotten A's and B's with an OCCASIONAL C+)! His class was the HARDEST CLASS EVER! Only graded on 3 quizzes and Exams, so if you aren't a good test taker AVOID HIM! No papers, refuses to post powerpoints online, Not helpful!!!!! material was interesting but only a few peopel got higher than a b-! DO NOT TAKE!!
Online class. We had to study 3 modules/chapters b4 quiz/exam 2. This whole week he didnt upload any module but the night B4 the quiz he uploads ... take this as a warning. This professor is unprofessional, disorganized, and careless. Maybe hes better in a physical class but Id never take him again.
This is the worst professor I've ever had. Every week there's a quiz & sometimes there's an exam AND quiz. That's the only thing you're graded on. He posts the quiz/exam at a different time every week, sometimes we only get 24 hours to do it. He says all the quizzes are multiple choice, then throws in open ended questions to throw us off. AWFUL man
Always canceling class, so this is basically a self taught class. I feel like I learned way more by myself than in class. Sometimes I feel like he gets off topic easily and just doesn't seem as caring and understanding as my other professors.
I took this guy during COVID as an asynchronous class (we didnt meet on zoom) so I figured it would be a pretty flexible course. But nope. He only keeps the quizzes and exams open for 24 hours and if you have a job or another commitment during that time then oh well! He disappears and doesnt respond to emails either. Awful online teacher!
I took this as an asynchronous course during COVID. Each week he would assign quizzes due within 24 hours and he would assign them on random dates. He didn't grade assignments from September until late October and that was only because we had to contact the dean. He ignores emails and never apologized for his lack of structure in class.
Boy do I have a lot to say. This man is the WORST online teacher ever, and I'm not just being dramatic. I don't think I've been able to communicate with him a single time via email because he doesn't respond. I had to write to the head of Psychology just to get him to respond to people. He didn't post the final exam until the day the semester ended
Easy A tbh and NO stress! No assignments, just quizzes and exams, which actually aren't that bad, you can find most answers online or in the textbook. He pushed back a lot of the tests.. which tbh is only a good thing haha yet everyone still complained! He was/is going through a lot, as we all are since it is a GLOBAL pandemic, so why judge? Easy A
This prof is honestly a super nice guy. He gives a test or quiz every week & for someone like me who isn't good at tests, it made the class hard. A good portion of the answers can be found online though. There's no other assignments to be graded off of, so be aware of that, but he did offer extra credit. He also canceled class a LOT, once a week
Both classes I took w/ him were because he was the only 1 that fit my schedule. Took an in-person and an online course and he was just as awful in both. He doesnt know what hes talking about and tests you on chapters that he didnt tell you to study for. His lectures are long, boring, repetitive and they dont stick to the book. He cant teach!
The course was a three-week summer course but I don't think I suffered this much through a class ever since I am attending MSU. He doesn't reply to e-mails and he doesn't post the quizzes and exams before just for 24 hours. I didn't enjoy the class at all and his lectures are also boring.
From Aug-Oct, he would cancel every class we had ten minutes before we had it. He was incredibly hard to contact outside of class (which was never). It was literally one class a week and we had learned nothing. There was a quiz every week, luckily on quizlet. If you have him, have fun teaching yourself.
I really really enjoyed the subject matter, but I don't think the professor was very accessible. There were countless errors in the quizzes which I was able to prove to him (and he ended up giving me the credit). When we emailed him he didn't respond and the final grade took 4 weeks to be entered. (like we had already started the next semester).
This professor was the laziest professor ive ever had. We met like 3 times the entire semester he was always cancelling class minutes before it started and picked and chose when to take attendance, never responds to emails cant name to you a thing ive learned and has yet to submit our grades and its already the next semester.
He was very lazy. It was the next semester already and I did not receive my grade yet. He canceled class last minute many times. However the course was easy and it was an easy A.
This professor canceled last minute all the time. I would drive all the way to campus just for him to cancel. The course is easy, but try to take the online version. He is very unprofessional.
Worst professor ever. I had him online and thought that I was actually going to learn. He never responded to emails until it was too late. I didn't start doing work until three weeks into the semester because he was "having trouble with Canvas". If you actually want to learn something, take any other professor in person.
Disorganized and Unresponsive This professor is extremely disorganized. He canceled too many classes without warning, and suddenly expected us to watch four videos, complete an assignment, and take a final exam—all at once. It felt completely unstructured. he does not respond to emails. I wouldn't recommend taking his class. Good luck if you do!
An unprofessional and disorganized professor. We had 6 classes total, the others he cancelled an hour before the class started. Not accessible outside of class and when he did show up to class, half of the time he did not even teach and went on tangents about off topic things. Do not take him if you actually want to learn, or get your moneys worth.
He is a great guy! However, he is not the best professor. He is lazy and teaches in a disorganized manner. There is no grade breakdown (i.e. exams 30%, attendance 10%). His class was great because there was minimal to no homework and little exams, was very easy, but did not learn much. There were also more assignments on syllabus then assigned.
This professor is easy to talk to and laidback, but he's almost too laidback. Commuters beware: he cancels a lot and you only get ~1hr notice. I took a lecture class but it was basically asynchronous. The lectures we did have were unstructured; I did better watching the videos he posts. Only assigns quizzes and tests, which are open-book but hard.
very disorganized professor. Never replies to anyone emails, and doesn't grade test and assignments in a timely manner. 2 weeks left of the semester and only have 2 grades in. Doesn't answer any questions or emails about homework assignments. Plans a live zoom to answer any questions as needed but then doesn't show up to his own zoom.
He was very nice, he canceled alot of classes, I upsettingly didnt learn alot. Very unorganized. I would not take
Very disorganized, Late grader, Very few assignments
Decent professor, but pretty disorganized. Classes were frequently cancelled close to the last minute and the structure of the syllabus was never followed, making the entire class confusing to understand. He also is not the best communicator, never responding to emails unless you mention it in person.
