Tucker Krone

Very nice person, bad teaching style. In a big lecture room, he just reads off of a sub-adequate word document and expects us to keep up and understand. The concepts taught are incredibly important for research, but he doesn't make it clear at all. Also hard to find material to help supplement the lack of learning on the internet.

This class should be renamed "History & Race in St Louis". Easy, boring, and I didn\'t learn anything worthwhile. You also get assigned a 1-semester co-op, which is a wildcard in terms of difficulty, time commitment, and relevance. The class has political undertones &the instructor didn\'t make me feel comfortable enough to share my dissenting views.

This class is a joke. The professor didn't show up or left early half the time despite meeting only once per week. Krone's classroom policies and attitude give the impression that he doesn't trust his students or treat them as equals. The assignments are all meaningless busy work which makes sense bc the course doesn't teach you anything useful.

I hate statistics but I love Krone. Super funny and understanding. Projects are tough but go to his office hours and you'll be fine.

There are no exams in the class, just homework and projects which accurately reflect the lecture notes/labs. Office hours and the TAs are very helpful. Krone is super understanding and cares about his students- he is accommodating to personal circumstances and tries hard to make class fun

Lectures can sometimes be a little fast-paced but example problems in the notes help to solidify concepts. Weekly homework can be a little tricky but you are allowed to collaborate with friends and office hours are extremely helpful. Take-home assessments can take a while to complete but if you have a good grasp on the material you should be fine.

Prof. Krone is not a good lecturer because his class is really boring and not helpful compared to his notes. However, he set the class in a proper difficulty level that matches to the lecture: there are no exams! An easy A professor and doesn't create difficulty on student's grades, but there won't be much knowledge one could gain from his class.

Professor Krone is very kind and caring. His class is also very interesting and the assignments are useful. He does not waste time with busy work. I enjoyed the class.

I took Professor Krone's ethics class in FL2020 and found it very enjoyable w/ interesting content discussed. The class itself is only 1 unit, so it's not much work and you can actually get a lot of it done ahead of time. Lots of EC (related to the 2020 election) and super easy grading. Good to pair with a heavier schedule as a WashU student.
