I\'m sorry, but he is not a fair professor. His exams are extremely difficult, too much detail and expecting us to know things we don\'t. He doesn\'t really want us to pass, and is inconsiderate of students. He is a nice person, but his teaching is extremely difficult and students try their best but still can\'t get the required grade they need.

lectures supposedly are 3 hours, but always is 1 hour short. that and there is a half hour break.\r \r he should not read the lecture slides, he should say stuff from memory and only use lecture slides as a guideline.\r \r he needs to be more aggressive and angry to engage the audience.

Unorganized. Makes you feel dumb about 60% of the time. Not helpful at all.

He knows his stuff. His classes arn\'t sleepers. You get more out of them if you work. If you want a course where you can just take notes and skim them before the exam, go take something else. Put in a bit of effort, ask questions and you\'ll get lots from his courses. Talk to him outside class too! Nice guy.

He can be kind of funny at times but he is quite monotone. He knows he is but he is not going to change that. There is quite a bit of memorization for this class. Take some notes. READ THE TEXTBOOK. The key is to try and keep up with the readings. It is \'hard work\', but this class shouldn\'t be considered as too difficult.

Good. Very Interesting. Liked all the tidbits (i.e. Lake Vostok, etc)

alex is a cool really helpful guy but since he's so smart he expects so much more from his students... hes very tough, hardest class ive ever taken at school, but hey structural aint supposed to be easy

New prof. Is easy and possibly here temporarily.
