Past student reviews · Gary Dahl
Gary Dahl’s lectures were called unorganized, monotone, and confusing by some, while another found his teaching systematic and grading expectations clear. Project descriptions were poorly written, bi-weekly quizzes were an extra burden, though they also motivated detailed preparation. He was also described as strict about policy, and one student said success required extra effort.
