I totally disagree with the negative comments made about this professor. He reiterates points multiple times, making it nearly impossible to not understand the material. He's funny (uses humourous examples) and he knows the material very well.

THIS PROFESSOR IS FUNNY AS HELL. HE KNOWS HIS STUFF AND THE CLASS IS VERY INTERESTING. HE WILL OFFER EXTRA CREDIT IF YOU NEED IT. I ADVISE YOU TO GET THIS TEACHER!!

This class is a piece of cake. The people that gave him a bad rating are morons. The so called surprise quizzes are all but anounced the class before. They are 3 questions long and the only way fail is if you did come to class at all that week

Don't know how I came out with a B. His test are pretty easy if you study. just do your readings.

I LOVE HIM

His class is not that hard. He gives study guides for all of his tests and they are multiple choice. His surprise quizes are easy, you just have to be there. If you want an A, he is the one to take.

Very interesting class- good teacher.

Tests are very difficult, suprise quizes are easy just go to class, if you need any help he is cool about that. smart way to get a good grade is to introduce youself the first day of class

Puts things in stupid people terms

This guys is so funny, and knows what he is talking about. He is one of the best teachers I have ever had. His test are not hard if you study. Just go to class and study his review. He will help you after class if you need it. People who rate him bad are just lazy.

Great class, it's pretty easy as long as you study. And I think he is adorable. He reminds me of a teddy bear!

I liked his lectures. He made what normally is a tedious class seem more fun and he puts things into everyday language which is helpful. I definantly recommend going to class every day though!

He talks like a surfer, but really makes one think. His drawings are funny and add humour to a bunch of dead guys' thoughts. All in all not a bad class.

Do not take Veber if you are unwilling to try hard or just plain stupid. Great teacher, great class. People that complain are the ones who are too lazy to go to class, take notes, and study. He does give you a fair warning at the beginning of the semester, so if you didn't drop the class and still failed, it's your own fault.

GREAT TEACHER. I LOVED HIS CLASS IT WAS AWESOME. HE REALLY GETS THINGS ACROSS. HE IS AWESOME.

Great class, excellent professor. His syllabus spells out exactly what he expects, so if you can't deal with the tough requirements, drop early. If you stay in the class and do what is required, you'll learn a lot. Highly recommended.

Philosophers from Florida rule. That's pretty much an analytic fact.

Fun class

Amazing

Awesome.

Prof.Veber is great! get him.If you actually go to his classes you will get lots of bonus points by just attending.That will help a lot!

If you can appreciate his dry and, occasionally, brusque sense of humor, you'll like him. His class unfolded exactly as he said it would on day one. He doesn't pull punches when it comes to critiquing work but he is very fair. It was a tough and rewarding class.

He has a dry sense of humor, which you have to get used to. He knows the subject very well though and explains it clearly. Tests are a little hard, but if you study you will do fine. Do the homework, because it is mad extra credit. Attend lectures, all the information comes from them since there is no book.

A very boring class but he did make it a little less boring. Only 2 essay exams and a book review. Never read the book or went to class after the midterm and received an A in the class. just studied the book before the exam and knew basic history knowledge. Essay exams were easy and basic.

Dr. Veber is such a sweet guy! Philosophy is a boring subject either way, but he makes learning fun and he is such a funny guy! I would recommend taking him over any other professor!!! He knows what he's talking about and he gives you so much help- even though he lectures, he puts all notes on blackboard and he gives such clear study guides!

He is SO funny. He uses illustrations to aid his explanations. Helpful outside of class via email- gives homework for extra credit that really helps out with the material. I didn't think I'd love Philosophy so much!

He's rather odd, but he's entertaining. There isn't an attendance policy, but if you'd like to pass, go to class. He randomly collects homework 8 times during the semester, if you turn those in you get 10 points extra credit on your final grade! It isn't a hard class if you listen to his lectures, I never studied and made an A.

SUPER funny guy. He is awesome. Doesn't take attendance. I never went to class and I still did well. Study guides are VERY clear and he puts all notes from lectures on blackboard. I would recommend him!

You can skip class and still make a good grade if you read the black board post

Really funny guy, his jokes make class more interesting. Lectures are not extremely boring, but that is what you do every class. Doing the extra credit will help you on tests, which is a good idea since there is only four of them. Tests are easy if you do study guides. I would definitely recommend this class.

Veber is a great professor. He thoroughly explains all the topics, but if you don't go to class, you won't pass. There is no attendance grade, but if you don't go you'll miss out on the extra credit which really helps your grade in the end. I would take this class again.

If you pay attention to his lectures, there is no way you can not pass the class. The test are based directly from the notes in class.

Easiest class I have ever taken. All you have to do is show up, literally just show up, take notes and boom easy A. Never even did extra credit, even though he offers 10 extra credit points that are added to your final average. Study guides are literally 100% just like the tests, and study guide questions are based 100% on the notes.

The only homework you get is for extra credit and a few readings. Go to class and takes notes on the lecture and you'll do fine. The tests are based solely off of his lecture notes, you have to go to class because he does not post the notes on blackboard. This class isn't hard at all just take notes and pay attention.

Veber is one of my favs. I'll bet 90% of these poor/average reviews are from individuals who thought that since it was an intro level class, it would end up being an easy A. Study the study guide he literally posts a week before the test (plenty of time to study lol), take decent notes, and go to class. Also, his dry sense of humor is impeccable.

Dr. Veber has easily been one of the best professors I have had while at East Carolina. I took Philosphy of Sport with him to attain a required humanities elective and it was a great choice. You talk about things in a way that really make you question what sports really are. Would recommend to sports fans and to anyone who enjoys lots of sarcasm.

Really good teacher, definitely makes the class more interesting than it really is. Lots of reading and gives pop quizzes on the info. If you go to class and just pay attention you will do well, he posts all his notes and study guides for every test. Tests are tricky, he wants to make sure you really understand the material not just memorize it.

Took intro to logic last semester and loved it so much I am now doing a Phil minor. Veber is great, he makes the class sound really hard at the beginning but ended up helping everyones grade at the end. Come to class, ASK QUESTIONS, he will help. Intense subject but Veber makes it easier.

No tech policy. Veber shows very interesting concepts that I found to be very thought provoking, which is good for a class on thinking, ha ha. If you pay attention in class, it's a very easy grade. You will be lost otherwise, so don't take the class if you don't plan on paying attention. Ask ill-thought-through questions at your own risk.

Very, very lecture heavy; attendance is not mandatory, but he gives out a lot of extra credit if you are in class. Class can be boring but he also tries to get a lot of volunteers. If you do volunteer, be ready to defend your answer because this class will have you rethink all your beliefs.
