Quality 1/5Difficulty 4/5
Huber uses only slides to teach the class, so it is difficult to track down information. The slides are broken, poorly formatted and use low resolution images. It is shocking. The only polished slides he uses are for his own company. There is too much information to memorize every slide, but there is no way to know what is going to be tested.

Quality 2/5Difficulty 4/5
Absolutely no materials provided outside of class to study for exams. Told "look over class materials to study" but had over 1000 slides of lecture content. No practice problems, study guide, etc. Exams were hard and niche. Would not take this class again.

Prof. Huber is a charismatic teacher as well as a caring individual. He is great in office hours and genuinely wants to help you succeed. He did a good job of teaching from a new textbook this semester (Rawlings) and his lectures help simplify more of the complex topics the book dives into. Thanks Prof. Huber!

homeworks took too long (8-10 hours) for a survey. Nice guy but class was not structured well
