I had this professor for my first semester. He is a very fun professor, who can make me stay awake in a 8:00am class. Just study and you can def. get an A!

He's funny, great, and really improved as a teacher(compared to all the previous reviews) he makes me want to go to class, and I always have a smile on my face leaving class. He knows what he's talking about, and is able to convey his points in a clear yet interesting way. He's also very accessible, and left his cell number on our course syllabus.

Quincy is a talented academic who will drop everything to help you out-he actually hands you his phone number (for Math help). This course requires discipline (like any other Math course). *Show up* with a *real attempt* at the assigned section, and he'll help you iron out what's left. Anyone who tells you otherwise didn't follow these basic steps.

Truthfully I do not understand all of these negative reviews. I think he's a pretty good professor, and he does make himself available outside of class. I think many of these reviews come from students that do not show up to class.

Professor Loney wants you to succeed. If you sees a genuine effort at you trying, you will be rewarded. Yes, linear algebra is difficult but Loney will give it his all to make sure you understand. He is definitely a good professor to take it with and you will do well if you take the class seriously and ask him for help when needed.

Dr. Loney puts in a lot of extra effort to make himself available for extra help outside the class hours. While I didnt take advantage of this too often I found it helpful when I did.

Dr Loney is very motivated and gives his all to help you succeed his classes are very easy to get a good grade in if you put in the work.

Quincy has a deep understanding of mathematics (so you can't fake anything) but his trial by fire teaching style helped me really learn the material. I'd suggest to anyone who wants to take higher-level math classes to take linear algebra with Quincy, as you'll be much better prepared under his guidance. He is easy to contact and a great resource!

I really enjoyed this class. Quincy gives students his cell if they need help outside class. I went to office hours and he was helpful there as well. If youre willing to put in the effort, hell support you throughout the course.

First off, you should take rate my professors with a grain of salt always. I've had teachers with 3.5+ averages and they were genuinely horrible teachers. Anyways, Loney is a very fair professor. What you give in is what you'll get out. Put in the work, utilize his office hours/phone number, and you will pass linear algebra no doubt.

I think a lot of these negative reviews have to be fake. He's not the best professor in the world, but I think he teaches the subject well.

Class is difficult but what you put in is what you get out. He knows a lot about the subject so you cant bs anything. If you miss class it will be hard to follow along and understand the material.

Rough class good teacher

You will need to study a lot for this 304, but Loney's notes make it a lot easier and concise. He rushes a bit in class but also goes in depth with theorems and such. He is funny and cracks lots of jokes which def makes the class better. Loney is definitely one of the better teachers for 304 to take.

Professor is hilarious. He makes sure students phrase their questions correctly which is good...you have to be patient and not mistake it for rudeness, he cares a lot about his students, so don't be afraid to ask questions even if you get a little cheek with it. Otherwise very friendly and humane guy. He goes fast so study study study

Linear Algebra sucks. Quincy Doesn't. He cares about you, which makes all the difference. To some he comes off as rude, but I found his class enjoyable. He's a good *person* (unlike another prof for this course), and to me that means the world. I may not have passed, but that didn't stop me from enjoying my time with him. Thank you Dr. Loney.

Great professor, definitely one of the better professors for linear algebra. It's a hard class and there's a lot of self-studying and extra work needed to do well in it, but Dr. Loney offers a lot of help and genuinely cares about his students and the material. Also, hilarious dude. Classes are way more fun because of this. Def take him if possible

If you study and go to every lecture you'll do fine in this class. His exams require you to have an in-depth understanding of the material. Although he may come off as rude to some, professor Loney is always willing to help his students and genuinely wants them to succeed. Linear algebra is tough and I would recommend Loney as a teacher.

Linear where you just row reduce for a semester is easy. Linear in 304 is difficult. Dr Loney does everything he can to make the class understandable, and even wrote his own notes and textbooks to do so. He's hilarious, engaging, and caring. I recommend taking his class over any of the other profs, he's one of the best in the department. DO THE HW!

funny dude, good content. Class is hard but the bad reviews are people who didn't expect to have to do work in a high level math class.

I'm glad I took Math 108 with him. His teaching is easy to follow + he does his best to make the early class engaging. I almost withdrew bc I thought I wouldn't pass, but he reassured me in office hours I still could. I came out with a C+ (I took it pass/fail in Fall) but that's not his fault, I'm just bad at math. He is very responsive to emails

This class felt like a warzone, every week classmates would go MIA (dropout). But Professor Loney made the class manageable and entertaining. His tests were very hard but if you make sure to read the textbook and do the Test Review's you will be fine. Very helping and held office hours all the time.

I dont know what people's issues are with Professor Loney this was a difficult course just like any other but his RMP should not drive you away from this course I learned a lot and he cared about all the students in his class.

Professor Loney is one of the finest math professors at Binghamton. For 304 there is no better professor, his sections score the highest on the exams and that is because he pushes his students to learn the material and not memorize it. Loney is a great guy who puts in work for his students and despite his tough guy persona cares for his students.

He's funny and makes the content easy to understand. Nothing in the class is legitimately difficult or complicated as long as you remember what to do for each type of question. If you can do the practice problems in the lectures you'll be fine for the exams.

Many people think he's mean or he's intimidating but this isn't the case. The course itself is difficult and fast paced so i think some of the hatred on the course also goes onto him. He is very funny and caring. He also goes out of his way to help students and would answer any questions we had. Difficult course but great professor.

Loney is the BEST linear teacher. He is extremely organized and a great lecturer but I had to study a lot outside of class just to solidify the info. His tests and quizzes are very hard cuz he always tries to trick you to make sure ur paying attention. He can be passive aggressive and do too much sometimes but always willing to help if u ask.

best linear lecturer but he makes his quizzes/exams harder than other professors do. if you are concerned about getting a very high grade, take easier prof and get loneys notes from one of his students, otherwise he is good (if you failed with him you would've failed with any prof)

A great lecturer - if you just pay attention during lectures (which is easy with Loney) and take some notes, you will already have a great shot at passing the class, because a lot of the class is memorization.

Professor Loney is great. BUT the content is hard.

Dr. Loney is such a knowledgeable and caring professor! He may come off as intimidating and tough, but he is truly very caring and hilarious. He knows what he is talking about and can explain difficult concepts very well. He is very well respected and worked very hard to get to where he is. If you have the chance to get to know him, don't miss it!

Linear algebra has a lot of vocab associated with it, so be prepared to study and memorize what each definition means. The way he teaches is in a manner that you don't need to read the textbook at all. The way he teaches concepts is very understandable, and he tries to ensure that the class as a whole is understanding concepts.

Prof. Loney has high expectations of students and you get back what you put in. The class and material are inherently challenging, if you're there expecting to be able to get by without studying, that's on you. Goes above and beyond for those who show up, ask questions, and put in the work. Genuinely cares, one of the best professors I've had yet.

Great lecturer and cared about how his students did. Can be hard on students but only because hes passionate about the subject and cares about his students success. I'm looking to have him in future math courses.

Loney is a very hit or miss professor. If you want to sit back and do nothing and get a free A, dont take him. If you can't handle criticism, dont take him. Overall, if you just pay attention, study and ask questions, the class becomes that much easier. Really cares about his students and always trashes on the math department, which means hes good.

da goat. genuinely cares about his students, extremely helpful if you ever need to ask him anything. class is a lot of work though u wont be able to freeload and bs ur way to a good grade

Dr Loney is for sure one of the better professors I had. The class itself is a lot of information but he makes sure to teach it well and is usually open to questions during the lecture. He is available for office hours outside of class and offers many options to review for a test. Very funny guy and serious when he needs to be.

Math 108 is a difficult course because of its material and pacing; but Prof. Loney was a great teacher nonetheless. Certainly hard on students, and it's not easy by any measure, but he does a good job of explaining course material. Def go to tutoring before exams, and NOT an easy A, but go for it if you are down to show up and work hard.
