Biology

Burt:

"Burt is an awesome teacher. Study the notes and you willl make an A. The test comes straight from the notes word for word." --BIO 121

"Do not take this guy. Boring. Boring. Boring. If you do take him, don't follow his advice and go down and buy his notes from Laser Graphics...They will do you no good. TAKE NOTES IN CLASS. He uses the overhead in every lecture, and it is very hard to see your notes, and he throws things on the test he has never covered and you can't find in the book. Take someone else if you can." --BIO 131

"I really enjoyed his class. You can buy the notes he goes by at Laser Graphics so it is an easy class to skip. I thought he made Biology very interesting and most of the questions came from the notes. Only a few came straight from lecture. P.S. I made an A if that makes any difference." --BIO

Fleet:

"His multiple choice are all practical questions. i.e. you have to use your notes and understand them to do well on the exams. Easy B, impossible A unless you have had some classes in Env. science." --BIO 133

"Great sense of humor, likes to make jokes. Always willing to help a student with concept or problem. Makes it perfectly clear what is testable material. Will increase your understanding of mammals. If you don't like to study try another class though." --BIO 436

Gibson:

"Very interesting man. Amusing to watch and listen to. He is enthusiastic about his subject and makes it interesting. Relates things to everyday life. Take good notes and you will do well. He posts old copies of every exam outside his office, which REALLY helps in studying. I only used the book when I was studying. His exams are mainly from lecture notes. He gives extra credit for attendance. I highly recommend him." --BIO 133

McCollough:

"Go to class, don't be late!!!! go to study session he gives the night before the exam. He tests from his notes. Don't buy the lecture book unless you need a good doorstop. Lab see McCord." --BIO 133

McCord:

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH you have to know how to spell everything exactly, and you have to have every single word that's written in the lab manual (which was written by him). You pretty much have to memorize every word in the manual for the test every class." --Zoo Lab 023

"Study, Study, Study, and then Study some more. Tests are hard. Everything must be spelled correctly and just as is in book. My advice take only if you have to." --BIO Lab 132

Rainwater:

"Enjoyable to listen to, time passes quickly. Write down everything he writes on the board and study the chapter in the book and you will do fine. He is a great guy and if you have any problems go talk to him and he will do his best to help explain again." --BIO 123

Robertson:

"GREAT TEACHER!!!! I recommend him to anyone. He makes learning fun and interesting. He does not assume that you do not know any thing. He gives points ( in class assignments (easy)) to help you out on exams. His exams are fairly easy if you studied. Just take good notes which he writes down on the board. Come to class he may give extra points for just being there!!!" --- Bio 133

VanKley:

"This class was really good for the incoming freshman who never studies. Easy teacher…does not expect much. Lessons straight out of the book. Occasionally he'll trip over his overhead cord and that's a pretty good laugh." --BIO 121

Wagner:

"Wow, you better take organic chemistry, and microbiology before you try this one, (I didn't) it is HARD, but he's fair and understanding. Go see him if ya need help. Have lots of pencils, and practice shorthand for notes!" --BIO 402
