Anyone who doesn't enjoy Ken Ferguson's class simply doesn't get his ultra-dry sense of humor. He says the wildest things with such a deadpan delivery that the humor flies right over people's heads. I was in stitches, though, most of the time. This guy should write comedy. He's also knowledgable about his field of expertise. Good teacher!

This class is alright. I personally didn't do as well on the exams as I had hoped.Do the paper well and you should make an avg grade. Ferguson is a pretty cool old guy. The study material from your notes will be kinda wishy washy for the exams so try to study as much as you can from his posted notes. Good luck with that unorganized book too.

Dr Ferguson is very funny. It's an easy class and making an A is not hard at all. Unfortunately I slept in class and came out with a B.

His lectures are somewhat dry depending on the day. Luckily he doesn't take attendance. He gives you his notes from each lecture and study guides but your grade is only based off 3 tests.

Very monotone and boring professor. He knows what he is talking about, but retaining the information said in class is near impossible. Luckily, there is online material for his class and his study guides are helpful before the tests. We only had three exams counted towards our grade, so you couldn't afford to have ONE off day.

Very easy course. If you read the professor's lecture notes and review online quizlets, you should be fine. Attendance is not mandatory and lectures can be pretty boring, so lots of people don't show up. Professor gives extra credit sometimes when many students don't show up. If you bother to put any effort into this course, you should pass easily.

do the study guide and you will be fine. The study guide directly related to the test. tests had a few application of theory questions but pretty straight forward.

He's an eccentric man, but if you go into class with an open mind it's hilarious to listen to, but I'm not sure if he knows he's funny. Don't buy the textbook; attendance isn't mandatory; there's 5 tests worth 20% each, one of which is the non-cumulative final, but ALL of the answers are found in his posted lecture notes so just ctrl+f.

I would have easily gotten an A if I read every lecture. Everything on the exams are in lectures and the textbook.

I have no idea how this guy has scored over a 2. Easily one of the worst professors I've ever seen. Mumbling, rambling lectures with at best a tenuous connection to the subject matter. A terrible textbook that you don't really need. The entire grade is based on 5 tests, one of which is the non-cumulative final. Just an absolutely garbage class.

Honestly a terrible professor. Might be the worst I've ever taken. Lectures are extremely boring, as he is a very quiet and dry man. You will not learn anything in this class. The tests are hard so get ready to study.
