Don is a horrendous professor. Rambles in lecture and doesn't know how to work PowerPoint or Excel. Homework is never returned and takes hours to complete since he doesn't teach you how to do any of it. Your grade is basically determined by how well you can memorize practice exams. If you can avoid it, do not take this class with him.Rate My Professors ↗
Don is the worst professor I have had throughout 4 years at this university. This is our "capstone" class for the OTM Major, and he is teaching us from a book that made in the 80's. Leaving this class, I can't tell you one thing I learned other than how to memorize practice exams and replicate that onto the real exams.Rate My Professors ↗
He does not know what he is talking about, thus he is unable to communicate anything helpful about the material in class. In addition, he does not engage his students in any way. You are better off skipping class every day and reading the textbook instead, except he gives attendance points. Never take a class with this "professor".Rate My Professors ↗
Oh boy. He was incredibly disorganized, lectures were very difficult to stay interested in, and attendance is supposedly mandatory, but I would have benefited by not going to class. Homework never graded/returned. 2/3 exams I took were fair. Though I tried to give him a chance, he is not worth it. I strongly do not recommend!Rate My Professors ↗
Donald is an incredibly un-organized professor. His lectures are mandatory, yet he does not teach, he talks. His assignments are irrelevant and unguided, and he provides minimal resources for success.Rate My Professors ↗
He expects you to read a ton for the class but he really does love transportation.Rate My Professors ↗
