Prof. Samuel H Baker
Prone to tangents but very fair.

Prof. Reiko Iguchi
Iguchi-sensei is full of cheerful energy. Her lectures are always useful and funny. Osumo-san should be a teaching aid in every class... :)

Prof. Emile J Lester
I love this guy!

Prof. Gary C Defotis
always available for help, including office hours and regular problem sessions; lectures really help to clarify esoteric material

Prof. George W Grayson
He is fine for American Government, but as soon as you get into his specialization of Latin American Politics his expectations vault up quickly. If you don't work up to his par he calls you out in front of the entire class in a highly embarrassing way. He is an expert and you will learn a great deal if interesting facts, but just know that he does pick students that he likes and dislikes.

Prof. A Marshall Acuff
Acuff completely mailed it in for the Stock Market Trends class. There was nearly no reason to go to class. There were only two graded assignments in the class and both were graded subjectively with unclear critia, allowing him to grade based on his prejudices.

Prof. Kathleen J Bragdon-Brown
I highly reccomend Prof. Bragdon for Intro to Cultural Anth.

Prof. Paul D Heideman
I was far from pleased with this course. I understand why the lab was almost completely different from the lecture, but I would have liked a better parallel between the two. The course was too broad in its focus at times, and at others, far too consumed by minutiae. I would have liked three lecture exams rather than two... If you take this class, come armed with plenty of caffeine. It can get fairly dry.

Prof. John B Nezlek
Very hard tests but also very entertaining lectures

Prof. Dale E Hoak
If you go to class, take good notes, study well for the tests, and participate occasionally, you'll ace this class. There is little homework aside from some short readings and one 3-4 page paper. I rarely used the text book. Professor Hoak is an interesting lecturer, and his tests cover only the material he goes over in class. Memorize names and dates, but be sure you can put them into the social and political contexts for the tests.

Prof. Bruce B Lowekamp
Networking was a fun class. I learned how the internet works, from layer 2 to the top of the stack. Pretty cool party trick to explain TCP. I suppose. The projects were ok, and the topics covered were pretty interesting. Lowekamp is a good lecturer, and his attempts at humor are well appreciated. I'd say, take it.

Prof. Ken Nozaki Lacy
I was a little surprised at the intensity of some of the homework questions, but overall they were nothing too terribly difficult to deal with. I looked forward to lectures, particularly early in the semester.

Prof. Randolph A Coleman
Took Professor Coleman for both Organic Chem and Neurochemistry. The material is challenging in Orgo, and slightly less so in Neurochem, but he teaches the material in an understandable and noncondescending manner. He was very helpful, both in and outside the class. You definitely feel a sense of respect among the students toward the Colemanator. He's always in a cheerful and jovial mood, and he never hesitates to deliver a chemistry pun/joke here and there. Memorable quote: "As you can see, the inositol triphosphate molecules look like turtles. Hehe."

Prof. Lewis C Cohen
As a person, Cohen is a nice guy. He's a tough grader but what frustrated me was he makes suggestions while working on the project (for example: make the piece smaller) and then, during the critiques, he would bring you down for making those changes. Best advice for a class with Cohen: don't listen to his suggestions and do your own thing.

Prof. Carla O Buck
She is MASSIVELY easy as a professor. I am taking her film class, and although we have weekly response papers, they are easy to write and it's easy to get a 5/5. The midterm was BEYOND easy. I made up a term and she gave me full credit. There is work involved, but she is not a hard grader, and makes you feel like you're a better spanish speaker/writer than you might think you are!

Prof. Berhanu Abegaz
Class is definately interesting, and sometimes lectures are worth going to. Because of the accent, some people might not understand him well, but apart from that, he's very personable and willing to give help whenever he can.

Prof. Ruth Arwen Crawford
She is very approachable and very eager to work with you when you have difficulties. We had reading for every class but it enhanced the lecture and didn't feel like busy work. The midterm was a little difficult but completely fair. I would definitely take a class from her again.

Prof. William L Bynum
Bynum has an unusual but somehow charming style to lecturing that you either love or hate. I found it funny, and he's got a lot of anecdotes from decades of experience that make it worthwhile. Although you can always use submit over ssh there is physical hw to hand in every week so you can only skip 50% of the classes (it's ok--bring a laptop and do your coding in class as he lectures on projects). The projects, developed at and purchased from CMU, are tough but fun (includes a hacking assignment), and grades posted anonymously online add competitive incentive.

Prof. Deirdre A Royster
Ok, I love Professor Royster, and this is a great idea for a class, but I spent nearly every weekend writing a paper. The actual classtime was interesting and fun, but don't take this if you hate to write. However, Prof. Royster will really help your writing get better and she is very willing to work with you.

Prof. Arnab K Basu
Professor Basu is excellent at teaching economics and encouraging students to learn. He will bend over backwards to help a student who wants to learn or seek opportunities. He truely loves teaching students. He grades fairly and gives plenty of opportunities to prove your abilities. I highly recommend professor Basu for anyone interested in economics.
