The class average is made up of three grades, two of which are tests but he's an easy grader. He explains everything clearly. He could give more direction for the research paper, but he's accessible outside of class for questions. He understands that we're busy students and tries to accommodate varied schedules. Great teacher, and really nice!

SP2021 BEWARE: Harder than before, semi open-ended exams, graded harshly. Do expect to learn a lot, DO NOT EXPECT FOR GOOD GRADES!!

Very smart guy but ambiguous. Exams are meh, research project is not explained clearly, but I recommend starting early (beginning of semester) and finding a group to work with.

Graded on only 2 exams and a research project. First exam was straightforward and easy; the second was viciously hard. He's very ambiguous about everything, from grading procedure to how the research project is done. Very smart, and his lectures are quite interesting, but he often loses his place and the lecture ends up trailing off. Odd professor.
