HW's and exams are very hard, but at least quizzes are super easy. Still, he has a lot of typos and screw ups. He gets way too technical and makes what could be an interesting topic very complicated.",

Many seniors took his class and he was straightforward about the expectations and graded fairly. Take a class with him if you can. He is an effective teacher and a great inspiration",

His work and the respect he garners in the field of EnvironmentalCivil Engineering only helps him bring in a high level of interest and passion to his courses. Why doesn't he have any ratings? Definitely take his courses. No textbook -- his notes.",
