9920023Excellent teacher. I had him for Ethics. A lot of talking goes on in his class, but most of the time it's interesting. Most of the grade is based on essays that you write, but you get a choice in what you want to write about. He's also a fair grader. As long as you know what you're talking about you'll have no problem getting at the very least a B.

8820012This guy really cares about what he teaches, and goes to great lengths to make sure you understand. Nevertheless, for all his efforts, the class can still be very boring, and it would help if he allowed a break in between it all. However, he cares more about the end result of how much you've learned in the class, and so the final paper will factor much more heavily into the grade than anything else. As such, the damage of earlier blunders in the class is kept to a minimal. It's not a cake course, but you will learn a lot.

9920012Great professor. Fair grader who really wants to teach the material.
9920012Extremely good with teaching us information. Little assignments through the class so grade is not focused on one big paper.

9520011Good teacher. Great guy.
9920011He seriously was my favorite teacher.... I enjoyed his class and his method for teaching. However, if you don't read the work and understand it very well... he will get you on it.
9920011The best liberal arts teacher i've taken here at RIT. Great grasp of the material, always prepared, and gives remarkable consideration in his evaluation of student work. He is friendly and easily approachable. That said, don't expect an "A" in his class without an exceptional ammount of quality work. He makes you earn the grade you get.
9520011in the middle of his course, seems liek a good guy, but we must read the assignments THOROUGHLY or it won't work.
