Professor Pidgeon's slides are incoherent and lack organization of thought. She presents the material as if she doesn't know it, speeds through it, and as if today is her first-ever lecture (she has been teaching this class for 10 yrs apparently). If organized notes are something you care about, forget about it in this class, nothing makes sense.

Dr. Pidgeon was just an average professor. I wasn't a huge fan of her class and found myself skipping every week and to read the slides she uploaded. Her lectures were just... boring. You would expect a woman named Pidgeon and teaching a class about birds would have a sense of humor, but sadly, she doesn't.

This is an easy A course. She never seems prepared for lecture or is fumbling for words that she should probably know. Her lectures can be tedious and she basically reads straight from the slides with a few side notes here and there. The information is interesting but either take with the lab or drink coffee.

Dry lecturer-struggles to find words and thoughts are not fluid. Exams are not difficult; She just takes off points when you don't answer questions she never asked. Learn how to read minds to pass this class. Class content is interesting but Dr. Pidgeon could use some practice in turning thoughts into words that effectively communicate her point.

Dr Pidgeon knows her stuff, but she can be a little dry during lecture. Her exams are very difficult. You go in thinking you have a grasp of most of the material, but she expects you to know the in's and out's of every concept. Her exams are graded very harshly. I loved the material, but overall the class was very difficult.
