Easy class, but not an easy A. There is no hw or assignments other than tests but he is boring, you take an ungodly amount of notes and never tells you what to study for tests. His tests are 20 SHORT ANSWER questions that he grades very hard, if you leave out any minor detail. Do not take this class as an elective if you're not an anthro major!

Go to class & take good notes. There is a lot of notes but only select things will be on the tests. So in order to do good on the tests you have to just study ALL of the notes. Textbooks might help but you don't need them.

Dr. Bunger is an older gentleman, so he teaches in a way that most students aren't used to. He has no Powerpoints and he doesn't use Blackboard, so COME TO CLASS and TAKE GOOD NOTES. Tests are all short answer ("define" questions), but he emails you a list of key words for each unit that he pulls from. Use the flashcard method to study; IT WORKS!

Dr. Bunger was a very sweet man but his teaching was not for me. He is very old fashioned and speaks everything he teaches, so you write EVERYTHING. No power points or blackboard and his four tests are the only grades you get so if you bomb one you're out of luck. I dropped this course because of him and dont recommend it if youre tech savvy.

Dr. Bunger is the cutest old man you will ever meet. He is so passionate about what he's teaching that its so easy to learn from. If you have questions he is more than willing to answer them, in fact his face brightens up when you raise your hand. He tells you what you need to know for the 3 tests that are 20 short answers, no cumulative final.

There's only three assignments through (two tests and one 10 page paper), and unless you go to every class you wont have any of the information.. He's extremely kind and a wonderful teacher.

Dr. Bunger is amazing and so knowledgeable about almost anything. I've taken three of his classes and plan to take more. He is very old school, he reads his notes out of his binder and does not use PowerPoints. If you don't attend class, you won't pass. Tests are all essays in blue books. Very helpful in and outside of class.

Dr. Bunger was key to my success in this class. I took it fall semester of my freshman year and it was the best decision I made. Attendance is mandatory (you get 3 free for whatever-- each past that is a point deducted from your next test). Books aren't necessary because he covers everything in class. STUDY--there are only 3 exams (including final)

It all comes down to your learning style. His teaching is very old school. No power points, no blackboard. He lectures out loud and it's your job to take notes on what is said. He does write some key vocabulary on the board but overall his teaching style is oral. He only communicates through email. All that aside he really is a great professor.

My dad took Dr. Bunger's class in the 70's and I was still able to take him last year. He is the best and most laid back professor at ECU. He really just tells stories about his life mostly and if you can recall anything about what he said for the exam you'll get an A. The only way you could fail is if you don't show up I guess.
