Very good teacher. I would take a class from him again.

Great person with lots of knowledge. Those who do not do well are those who do not do the work! He expects you to succeed be completing the assignments.
He knows English/grammar well,felt he was extremely arrogant, and chauvinistic. I felt he was against women,& would not recommend him or ever take another class he teaches. I also did not like one of his remarks No one will get an A in this class .

Smartest professor here, not easy but not hard. You'll take more out of this class for the real world than most other classes. Very helpful and very encouraging.
No Comments
Not an easy professor. You'll have nightmares about the comma. If you do the work you will learn some very useful information.
I didn't care for his attitude-too cocky a real "Mr. Know it all", he seemed bothered when I went to his office and asked for help, he gave me nothing but (bad) attitude, I didn't appreciate it! I most likely will not take another class with
Worst teacher I have ever took. I wouldn't recommend him for anyone. He is unclear and always has a moving target. He act's like he is "Mr. Know it all" he also acts like he is so above you and you know nothing. Will treat you like your in high

AVOID AVOID AVOID....Kuzudal is one of the worst and I mean worst profs out there...he is obessive about the subject..treats the student like crapola...is rude and sends you out to do extra credit that has NOTHING to do with the class! SUCKS!
Lots of writing but very helpful information for your future. He's very helpful.
Great teacher who knows his stuff. Not an easy class by any means, but one that really prepares you for "the real world".
No Comments
Smart, but inconsistent.
Very inconsistant. Too many stories with conflicting endings. You will have nightmares about punctuation. You will learn things that you didn't know about punctuation.
I think he has an acceptance complex b/c it is hard to talk to him sometimes b/c he thinks he is under attack and everyone hates him. He isn't the easiest-doesn't clarify what he wants BEFORE work is due, but he is a nice guy and he def. knows this stuff
gave me a better understanding of adj. adv. nouns, verbs, and so on. tests are from the book though he doesn't teach from it. exams are take home open book but read the questions VERY CARFULLY!
Dr. Kuzdal was probably my favorite prof. to date, I would recommend him to anyone. 152 is a lot of work, but still, I could not have passed this class with a different teacher.
No Comments
Horrible teacher. Do not take this class or your gpa will drop. Rude, materialistic, and inconciderate. Puts all students down in front of class. Very anal SOB. Got a doctorate in education because he couldn't get a real one.
Wonderful to be in class with. Knows how to get a point across. Glad to have taken a class with.
Mr. Kuzdzal was cool. He brought a new meaning to writing and the correct adj.,verbs, etc. He was concerned about his students. I enjoyed being in his class.
He was very confussing. He liked to change a lot of rules to comply with his own beleifs.
Rude, makes fun of students in front of class. Takes up most of class with personal stories. Makes inappropriate comments in class, has been reported for many instances. Makes fun of other teachers a lot. Doesn't fully explain himself and sometimes changes what he says. If possible, take another.
He is arrogant & starts the first day off with "Who thinks they are going to get an A?" Basically to let you know that you wont. He says an A means perfection and no one is perfect. What an arrogant A#$%^&*. Spent the first 30 minutes of every class talking about his weekend. I didn't pay for that.
Worst teacher I've ever encountered at Delta. He's is so rude and inconsiderate. Rarely stayed on topic. Avoid this man at all costs.
He grades people too hard.
I think his good ratings come from family members - and that might be a stretch. Probably padding his own numbers. This guy is a joke. Knows everything, is never wrong, hates women, and degrades his students. If that's what you're looking for, take him!
He is an absolutely horrible teacher. He is such a pig. He hates women and constantly makes fun of you in class in front of everyone else. He is unclear about what he wants from you in your assignments. He makes you do a group project also. My GPA dropped because of him. He grades very unfairly.
Be forewarned: He IS very sarcastic. He will make fun of you. But he will also josh everyone else and himself. Many stories. Just relax and make jokes back at him, or just be quiet. He gives explicit directions. If you just write down what he says, the assignment's basicall done. You learn a LOT.
I didn't really have a problem with this class. It wasn't easy, but it wasn't unbelievably hard!! The group project was A LOT of work!

Whats with all the haters? He's a funny old dude. Do your work and you should be fine.
Do not take him. Grades unfairly. Very inconsiderate. I would never take a class with him again. A complete jerk!!!!!!
The people who were inclined to post must have been ones that did not do their work or write down directions or something because I ended up with an A+ in the class. It's not that hard and he jokes around; he wants to get a rise out of people and illicit a response. Seriously people, stop being so sensitive.
Hard class to take, alot of information. He's clear about what he wants, but teaches in a different style. Tells a lot of stories, makes jokes at people. Odd that on the first day he came out and told us that he wasnt **** and that he didnt hate women... strange, easy to get a B.

I don't remember the class level! Intro or Basic Communications, anyway...it was a million years ago, but I LOVED Dr. Kuzdzal's class. I have gone through several jobs in the years since (probably 20 years!), but the common thread has been that I have "good communications skills." THANKS, Dr. Kuzdzal!
Spends most of class time complaining about how the book was written, downing other teachers ability to teach as well as he does and telling personal stories. Disagrees with the book, yet expects you to take the tests written from the book. He belongs in a first grade class room himself.
Wastes time talking about stupid stores in his life and end up getting behind in our work. I don't think there has been a class where he hasn't gotten off the subject 6 or 7 times. Gives out a lot of extra credit. Thinks the book is always wrong. Can learn a lot from him though..an OK teacher.
He teaches directly from the book - no exceptions, no diversions, no actual tutelage. His materials are directly... from the book. If you have a question - he tells you to check the chapter. Stanley Kuzdzal is an incredibly negligent educator.
As a teacher, I can say that it is a tough job at best. Dr. Kuzdzal is good at what he does, and students should understand that they have to work for a grade, and not expect to be spoonfeed.
I hope some of the people who gave such lousy ratings end up teaching. Then you will know how hard teaching can be. As the old saying goes, "What goes around, comes around."
I am not here to argue others posts, but he is a HARD teacher. Thats not a bad thing, he makes you think. If you want an easy A this is NOT the class for you. If you want to learn some stuff this is good. The one thing that bugged me is he ALWAYS complains about the book but teaches straight from it.He also puts other teachers down,not professional
I enjoyed Stanley as a teacher. Like other students have commented he is a little harder, but he makes you learn. He is extremely helpful and gives you great knowledge on how to be professional. I would reccomend taking him!
Excellent experience in writing a research paper and instruction on oral presentations. Very slow at getting back to you on questions outside of class. Refused to give out email addy for any reason. Could be quite rude if a student was not paying attention. Tests were take home and corrected as a class. No studying involved. Would take again.
Great instructor. Very clear about what he wants in assignments. He is always available in his office. Taught me how to write better and how to make a difference in communication. I think that Dr. Kuzdzal should run for Governor of the State of Michigan in the next election.
Kuzdzal for Governor? Interesting idea and who knows just may be plausible. Today, seems like everyone thinks they can run for public office. I question his ability to stick to a principle that puts thinking of other people first.
Dr. Kuzdzal is an excellent teacher! I learned alot about writing business papers. Dr. Kuzdzal does a great job of prepairing you for real life in business. He is very caring too. Lots of extra credit offered. Tests are difficult.
He was a joke. Two weeks into the semester, he was shocked to find out it was a 7-1/2 week class, not a 15-week class. We ended up getting a little short-changed in what we learned. Everything was haphazard. Also, he thought himself very important, and could have treated people with a bit more respect. Next to Dan Schafer, worst teacher at Delta.

This professor is very knowledgable and informative. Take him, you won't regret it.
God help you if you're not one of his favorites. If you can get past the arrogance, it's not an awful class to take. I just really disliked the man and it made me dread going to class.
Will never take any of his classes again
Dr. Kuzdal is a greatteacher. He gets off the beaten path from time to time but the information covered in class will truely be an asset to have later in the business world. I recommend taking his class.
I attended Delta College and had a class with this instructor. He is a good instructor, and has some bad days and good days like anyone else. He does care about the content of his courses and tries to teach as best he can. All teachers care about what students are learning and any instructor can become tired of those who do not want to learn.
Great teacher. I really appreciated the class, except for the bad eggs who goof off and do not do their work.
What an arrogant JERK! This class was a total waste of time! He's too easily distracted about himself and his life to be a good teacher! 2nd worse instructor at Delta.... and DO NOT FORGET .. It's "DR." Kuzdzal. Forget, how could you .. if you do, he'll remind you of his degree.
Kuzdzal was a pretty arrogant person. The class itself was not too hard. However, he is a hard grader. He said he would grade us as "first time speech givers" for our speeches, which was a bunch of bs. The little papers we did were stupid. Overall, I would avoid him.
The class is not hard but not easy. Dr. Kuzdzal is enjoyable with his stories which can go on and on. I liked him enough that I took another class with him on purpose. If you need a REALLY HELPFUL professor then I don't recommend him, but if U want to work on your own... he's great.
He didn't explain the course at all. Gave me the impression that he wanted us to figure out what he wanted without telling us. Didn't like him at all.
Really great teacher.Likes to joke with his students and tell stories, keeps the class interesting. Hard teacher and hard grader, but it's for a good purpose.Dont slack off, and take really good notes, you will need them in the end.If you are thinking bout taking this, do so in the fall/winter,spring/summer is to short for so much material.
He is rude! Obnoxious! He treats you like your stupid. Grades based on looks. There is no logic. One student misses 3 gets a C the next misses 4 and gets an A. For the same quiz! I would never recommend him He should be fired. He called a 70 year old man older than dirt. The guy was so embarrassed! He was given a hard time all semester!
Kuzdzal for President!!!
this was one of the worst instructors i ever had. No orgination to his class, very bias in who helped. I he didnt like you, you might as well figure he wasnt going to help you. I would ever suggest this instructor to anyone. He came very close to being reported by me when I had him. He was so horrible he taught another class i needed and I waited
he tends to contradic himself but tries to be funny.
I love Kuz!!! For those who don't "get" him, too bad for you. Listen to what he says about business and life...he is a very credible source. You may not agree w/him, but he doesn't have an opinion that is not well researched. I recommend him to anyone that is a grown up and can take constructive criticism...not for the weak minded.
He contridicts himself and is fake about how nice and helpful he is. His motto should be "there are no stupid questions, only stupid people." He may have a doctorates but he is socially inept. I had him four years ago and he still avoids me in the hallway when I was never anything but respectable towards him. I wonder if he puts ratings on here
Horrible teacher! Very oppinionated and is very rude. Loves calling people out in class and making fun of them. The first day started out with him telling everything that the career choices that they made were stupid. He thinks he funny and he isn't. Plus I didnt learn anything from his class.
Worst teacher I have had yet. He loves to single people out and make fun of them if they don't agree or don't know the answer. You just sit and listen to his life stories and the way he thinks everything should be, and spends most of his time teaching grammar and his opinion rather than what you are actually paying to learn.
Biggest jerk I have ever met. Don't take a class from him. It is a waste of money. He likes to make fun of students for any reason. He is a really insecure old man who tries to hard to impress people with his "multiple degrees." I hope I never have to talk to him again!
Great teacher!When writing the required letters, you have plenty of opportunity to take them to him before they are due for him to look over.He then gives you a chance to fix the errors you made. Kuzdzal has life experiences that are interesting and keep you 'entertained'.Recommend him,but only for those grownup enough to enjoy the experience.
Great professor. Couldn't ask for a better person. Is always willing to help. Is always open for discussion on topics and is very informative on the business world. Don't expect this to be an easy class, you have to work hard for your grade. Make sure you listen to his instructions very close. He also has very good office hours.
Dont take him. Very opinionated, contradictory, and spends most (if not all) of class time telling stories that are of little or no relation to the topic at hand. Also likes to push the fact that he has several degrees, to belittle everyone else. I couldn't wait until this class was over!!
If you want to review TYPING 101, go ahead and waste your money. He grades according to the format rather than contents.
This entire Business Comm 2 class is writing a very ellaborate, very complicated report. This report is a group project and you must choose your group the first week.(before you know who to avoid) The report is useless, and I will be suprised if I ever use the info I learned. I would not recommend this class. The teacher is nice enough I guess.
Dr Kuzdzal knew his material extremely well and was willing to help with any questions you had.
Wasn't very responsible with grading papers and lost assignments as well!
Instructor can be rude. Makes students feel dumb. He gives lots of assignments.
He is a very rude instructor. Me and two other girls picked up the slack of another girl in our class for our Business 2 paper and he didn't give at least two of us participation points when we did most of the work. Do not take his class.
Just make sure you follow directions to a T and you do the work. If you want him to like you, smile... a lot! This could be a very boring subject, but Kuzdal makes it interesting with his stories. He can be rather rude, but try to ignore it.
He keeps things fun and interesting.
Dr. Kuzdzal was extremely picky and allowed no room for error, even though he messed up a lot. If he ever had a teacher like himself when he was in school, he never could have passed. Most students didn't like him (including me) but some did. At minimum he won't be finishing the last 4 weeks of winter '07. Not sure if he'll be there next semester
Dr. Kuzdzal was a great teacher. He is well educated and enjoys teaching his class. He is very detail-oriented, but explains exactly how he wants assignments done. Many people gave bad comments about his teaching, but I had him for 151 & 152 and thought he taught all objectives clearly. He makes class fun and interesting. I'm upset that he is gone.
This professor changed my life like night to day. He has given me much valuable insight. The man is a pure genius. I still brag about him today and it's been 2000 since I had him. I was in special needs in high school and after meeting this man I went on to receive my Bachelor's degree because of him. Dan H
This is an instructor who uses his classes as a means of validating his own view of his life, marriage, and raising of children. At some time, he will have to confront his male chauvanist attitude in order to save his daughter's mind and soul.
Don't forget - That is "Dr." Kuzdzal...seemed like he hated women because he does. Has no respect for women...even the one who birthed him. Someone wrote that only his family liked him...wrong.
I am sad to hear that Dr. Kuzdzal is gone from Delta. He was a very good instructor. He was doing students a good service that they could not understand until they get out into the real work field. That is why a lot of students did not like him. He was actualy preping them for the real world. He was very helpful and extremley knowledgeable! G.M. 05
Personally, this is one of the best teachers I have had the honor to have. Dan H.
His real problem started w a power struggle from the division. Student Evals were great. The bad 1s posted here r from coworkers. The real 1s tell the truth that he was good. All RMP does is confirm that Delta has some horrible gossip issues going on. It starts w the chair & works its way down.
I too liked him it is all the BS that goes on with Felicia Peters, Don southwell, Gail Hoffman and the rest of them that caused this man troubles.
The real problem is CST Division, not this teacher; Delta would prefer nice teachers over knowledgeable teachers -- so out he goes, then Hoffman-Johnson, Peters and Southwell can feel commfortable in their mediocrity and ignorance.
