This class was extremely interesting. Prof. Stallings knows what he is talking about and he teaches it by connecting it to real life situations. He is not afraid to teach the truth and will express himself through his teachings. This class is really fun but there's no way to take advantage of him. He will give you the grade you deserve.

Stallings was alright at the beginning of the semester, but as it went on he became more mean and snide with the class. It's an easy class if you show up, because the powerpoints (although given to you) say almost none of what's on the test. I would definitely not recommend him to anyone who wants an easy class.

He has a little extra credit. If my major allowed it I would take this professor again. He does not accept late work not even if it is a second late however.

All of his test questions come from what he says out loud during lecture. HINT he usually pauses a little bit to give time to write the important things, and says to "star" other parts. He grades quickly and you know where you stand in the class. Lectures are fun. Gave some interesting information on other personal topics, like homosexuality.

He's a good professor and knows what he's talking about however he was extremely intimidating. He doesn't know how to put on a poker face and if you said something wrong while you were presenting to the class, the look on his face would basically be proof that you're an idiot.
