Dr. Agne expects a lot. There is lots of reading to do. The class lectures seem to jump around a little bit and in my opinion do not really apply knowledge from the book. To do well on his tests, you must know the book as if you wrote it.....

good teach-interesting-nice guy test material HARD

This was one of the hardest classes i have ever had in my life, but at the same time the bost rewarding class once i got an A! It takes so much time but dr. agne is an incredible teacher and he will help you every step of the way! Talk to him, it helps so much, type your notes after class, you will

definitely one of the harest classes i've ever taken, but i will give agne this; HE TRULY CARES ABOUT HIS STUDENTS.They just need to let him know they care. i can't believe people consider him a jerk,he truly is a nice guy. I got a D and still think he's a nice guy.

I love this class and the teacher are all nice holla. Almost all the teachers are nice but this one is the nicest.

he is a wonderful teacher, and is the best communications professor at auburn. he taught me more than anyone i have ever had. he is absolutley brilliant!! take his class if you want to be challenged and learn new things

His class is very very hard- he is extremely wordy on his tests and with everything, which make them so so hard! You really have to bust it just to get a C in the class.If you go and talk 'shop' with him, he is always willing- nice guy but wont bump a grade- dont even bother to ask!

I thought he was terrific. Very interesting. Kept me on my toes. Speak up and let him know you. He will eventually remember your name and if you joke around, he will like you. It's a theory class and therefore has theory tests. It's application. It's weed-out. Not supposed to be easy. I loved it.

He was very scary as a comm 3500 teacher, but he is so awesome in a small class setting. I highly recomend taking him for 4800

He is not that bad. You really have to study and bust your butt, but hey it is college and this is a theory class! He is funny and really tries hard. I got a B on the first test and then a high C on the second and barely studied. The final is a KILLER though and brought me down to a C. I am taking him again in the fall.

So its another class your gonna have to take for the triology, my vote.. this is the hardest. I made a C, but I have NEVER worked so hard for something in my whole life. HINT: GO TO CLASS, make sure you always do the discussion questions, be prepared for pop quizzes, and try to get to know him, atleast he will know you are trying!

yes this is a hard class, the material is very hard. I got a C and worked really hard for it. Most people complaining didnt go to class and probably never went to his office, If you get to know Agne he is helpful and will re teach you the material and go out of his way to help. Hard class but if you go and work hard you will do fine.

Yes, Agne is tough. Go to class everyday and take good notes. Study a week before each exam and be able to apply all of the concepts. He often uses examples in class, and those examples show up on the tests. If you put the work in, it's really not that bad. Get to know him too.

You mean you have to study..? In college? ... I'll be damned. Agne's the man, do what you're here to do and get over it, cause the class isn't that bad. Not saying it's absolutely easy, but if you just study the chapters and make sure you can apply them, then it's no problem.

He was hard but this is college and your suppose to study. interesting class though.

Great guy and great teacher, but hard. Go to class, take notes, and pay attention. The class is interesting, but it is still hard

Really nice guy most of the time. Explains the material well. Read the book and go to class! The only bad thing is his tests are pretty hard. There are a lot of application questions that you can't really study for. Overall, not a bad class if you keep up with it.

If you show Agne that you care, and you go to his office, he will do all he can to help. This is the hardest class I've taken in three years. Go to class no matter what. Classes are always interesting. Agne has a great sense of humor. Be able to apply the theories to situations, it'll help come test time.

Dr. Agne is HARD, however this class is what gives our majors credibility...nice guy, difficult tests.

Dr. Agne is a great teacher. He is clear and gives good notes. His test are hard, but they are supposed to be. There are a lot of application questions. This class is what makes the trilogy hard. If you are not good at conceptual thinking then you will struggle. Go to his office hours; he will help! Prepare to study A TON!

Dr. Agne is the best teacher in the COMM. His notes are perfectly clear and his lectures are very interesting. If you listen in class and read the book, you can definitely make an A!! He is such a funny guy and really knows his stuff. Don't let people scare you, it's not that bad or hard and at least it's an interesting part of the trilogy!

Dr. Agne is an amazing guy. He is always willing to help if you have any questions. Definitely go to his office and just talk to him about the material. It helps a lot. READ THE TEXTBOOK AND GO TO CLASS! There are things on his tests that he doesn't necessarily say in class. Be sure to not only know concepts, but how they relate to each other.

This class is BY FAR the most difficult class I have taken at AU, however, it is possible to make it out alive! Be prepared to study like you've never studied before. GO TO CLASS!! It will help a lot when it comes to applying the theories. Keep up with your notes and study through out the semester - don't leave it all until a week beofre the test.

Probably one of the best professors at Auburn. Yes, the tests are extremely difficult, probably the most difficult tests I have ever had were in this class, however, you are in college, and tests should be challenging, I found him to be extremely helpful with answering questions about material. Go by his office and ask him questions, he loves that.

Dr. Agne is one of the hardest professors i have ever had, but it is college and things should be challenging. In order to do well you must study WEEKS in advance and you will get a C. He is very nice, and you shouldn't let others scare you, his class is not impossible but very very hard. just study A LOT and you will do well.

Dr. Agne is a great teacher. However, the material was extremely difficult for me to comprehend. It is all communication theory. If you are not used to hearing talk about theory, then it takes some getting used to. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE!!! Read everything he tell you and attend class everyday. He will randomly take up homework and gives quizzes.

Dr. Agne is tough. This class is by no means an easy class, but if you study hard, take good notes, go to class every day, and keep up with the reading, you should pass. His tests are hard. He like all/none of the above questions which can be tricky. He doesn't scale but he does sometimes throw questions out if he think they were poorly worded.

Love this guy.. He's so hard. But you cannot help but love him!

Extremely difficult material. Don't wait until the last minute to study. Go to class. READ the chapters, it helps a lot. Make sure to do ALL Discussion questions, it helps you out in the end!!

Agne is always available to talk to, and is a very interesting guy. This is college, and you can't breeze through without some hard classes. Study in groups, talk about everything out loud, and if you feel you could teach the material, you are ready for the test. Don't be scared, it is possible to get an A if you try really hard!!

I loved Dr. Agne..Go to class, read the chapters and do the discussion questions they help at the end. DO NOT wait until the last minute to study, and dont just memorize, really understand the material. Be prepared for A LOT of work. Try to get to know him and think like he thinks..the test aren't that bad but you HAVE to prepare.

Agne is hard but not because the tests are made hard. He makes you think through the answers. Do all of the work, go over your notes every day, and read the book. When taking his tests reread everything. One word can change your answer. He doesn't make his tests tricky though. No electronics in his class. He is in his office for questions.

Dr. Agne is a great professor! Class wasn't the easiest but I learned a lot. I made a B and really enjoyed the class.

Either you love him or hate him. Personally I think he's one of the best in the comm department. Very funny, makes class interesting, and probably the weirdest professor you'll ever encounter. But man was that class hard! You must go to class and you must read the chapters. Most of the theories are extremely interesting at least. Hes an A+ teacher.

Dr. Agne will challenge you but he is a brilliant.

The class is not that hard... He explains the material so well and is willing to write really long emails explaining it if you don't have time to go to his office. There is A TON of material, but it's not hard. Read the book, go to class, do the discussion questions, you'll be fine

Probably my favorite COMM teacher. He is also the hardest teacher. But just put on your big boy pants and learn to take an actually challenging class for once. ALWAYS read the book before class. Talk to him in office hours as much as you can. He is a really cool guy, get to know him. Don't just memorize lists but understand concepts.

Dr. Agne is one of y favorite professors. He is easy to pay attention to and makes an effort to know everyone in his class. Even the big ones. His class is challenging, but he equips you to do well. At the beginning of thee semester he tells you how to study and pass, so just listen to him. I ended up with an A. It's hard, but fun and doable

Awesome teacher, especially if you get to know him better. His lectures are long but engaging. Tests and infamously difficult, some of the hardest out there. I don't study for any classes but I am forced to study here. Required for COMM majors but I would probably recommend taking it in the summer so the class is smaller.

Dr. Agne is a WONDERFUL professor! Yes, this is a challenging class, but you walk away feeling like you learned SO much. I truly enjoyed this class and that is mostly because of Dr. Agne. He does a great job teaching the information in an interesting way. The tests are tough, but just pay attention in class, take really good notes, and study hard!

If I could give some advice about Agne's class: 1)Pay attention and participate. If you engage in the course you'll do better than if you just sit there and try and figure it out on your own. 2)GO TO HIS OFFICE HOURS! He is more than willing to give detailed feedback & explain where you went wrong. If you put forth effort he will too. Great Guy!

Dr. Agne is a really good professor. I learn well in his class. It is a very difficult class, and many students struggle to do very well. You've got to be willing to work for the grade you want. He does well at his job. He keeps his lectures interesting and entertaining.

This class is hard because it actually makes you think. Memorizing terms won't work, you have to know and understand the material the way he teaches it. Yes, he is quirky, but the only time he seems "mean" is when he enforces the no cell phone policy like all teachers should. Be a respectful student, put your phone away, read, think and you'll pass

4800 is significantly easier than 3500 with Agne. There is a lot more discussion and he really appreciates when students participate. He used a new textbook this semester and hated it, but he will probably change it after this semester. He cares about his students and tries to make the material as understandable as possible.

It is true that this class is difficult, but not because of Dr. Agne. The material can be confusing because it is abstract and requires students to think. He provides examples that makes the material a lot easier to understand. If you do not like theoretical concepts, the class will be extremely difficult, but you will learn SO much. So worth it

One of the more entertaining and brilliant professors at Auburn. Will give you tones of feedback and help if you go visit him in his office hours. However, if you do not study or skip class you won't pass. But if you are concerned about having to go to class then you shouldn't be in college.

Just show up to class and take good notes. He does grade somewhat harshly and have vague rubrics, but he is more than happy to clarify in his readily available office hours. I had issues but solved all of them by just talking to the guy for 15 minutes one day after class.

Dr. Agne is a tough grader and often lacks when providing feedback on assignments, but he is an excellent professor. If you show up to class(mandatory) and pay attention, the course is easy to understand and keep up with. Many students rate him poorly because they don't like his policies, but he is an excellent professor. Approachable, funny, kind.
