Such a great teacher, he made concepts easy to understand. He wants students to succeed, but also pushes them to do their best and expand their knowledge. Would recommend this professor to friends.

Kruger is awesome. His maniacal laugh will stick with you far after the semester. He will also imbue you with an appreciation for forestry humor. A particularly endearing quirk is he thinks of mechanisms in Tree Phys as cartoons, which works well to clearly explain complex ideas. He teaches through case study which you will either love or hate.

He was a great prof and really knew what he was talking about. He went over everything that you needed to know and made it really clear. His lectures were the most enjoyable of this class. His exam was fair and covered everything we went over in lecture.

Dr. Kruger was a great professor for the plant section of Bio 152! He really emphasizes what you need to know and takes time going through what might be more complicated. His exam was probably the most fair exam I've ever taken at this university, so if you study the power points and discussion materials you should be fine! Great prof

Kruger taught the plant physiology section of Bio152 and was extremely enthusiastic about it. His lecture slides are very useful for learning, and best of all, focused more on the more interesting parts of plant physiology. Test is not too difficult.

I thought Eric really did a great job teaching plant physiology. Although some people might find him a bit arrogant at times, to me I thought he truly wanted students to understand/learn the material. Also I found the exam very straightforward, exactly on things we talked about in lecture, and pretty easy. I think you should definitely take him.

This is one of the best courses I've taken at UW. Dr. Kruger is patient and down to earth, yet very bright and excited about the tree phys, which is challenging because it is so comprehensive. I came out with a much better understanding of plant phys in general and as a better scientific writer.

Awesome class... You have to love that hair.

Do yourself a favor and do well in this section. If you study, Eric's test isn't so bad, but the animal section is double the difficulty.

a little bit pompous, but knew his stuff very well. also had virtual office hours which were pretty legit.

He had a lot of enthusiasm for plants, and even though he got a hard time for it I still think he was a good teacher. He shouldn't be blamed for teaching a semi-hard subject. His lectures were useful, as were his assignments. Nice guy.
