This guy has been teaching for way too long. He really does a poor job of making the expectations clear. Be prepared to teach yourself everything that he expects you to know for exams and quizzes.

John is an old professor who has the funniest jokes. He talks for about a half hour of the lab about what is written in the lab manual. If you are looking for an easy 2 credit class, take this!
