Comments Received on College Courses


1.    Bogus number crunching. My HP is exhausted.
2.    Compared to what I was told about you, you are better than I expected.
3.    Difficult course matter, takes a lot more than just class time to learn. [I guess a number of courses don't require any time outside class.]
4.    Have you ever fallen asleep in class and awoke in another? That's the way I felt all term.
5.    He is one of the best teachers I have had... He is well-organized, presents good lectures, and creates interest in the subject. I hope my comments don't hurt his chances of getting tenure.
6.    He made the best out of an unbearable situation.
7.    He teaches like Speedy Gonzalez on a caffeine high.
8.    Help! I've fallen asleep and I can't wake up!
9.    His blackboard technique puts Rembrandt to shame.
10.    I am convinced that you can learn by osmosis by just sitting in his class.
11.    I never bought the text. My $60 was better spent on the Led Zeppelin tapes that I used more while doing the problem sets that I would have used the text.
12.    I think in the future you should find an instructor who knows all about Macs and likes them.
13.    I would sit in class and stare out the window at the squirrels. They've got a cool nest in the tree.
14.    In class I learn I can fudge answers and get away with it.
15.    In class the syllabus is more important than you are.
16.    Incredibly boring.
17.    Information was presented like a ruptured fire hose -- spraying in all directions -- no way to stop it.
18.    Jeff made CIS 211 interesting. This is no small feat...
19.    Jeff reminds me of Chevy Chase... I'm real glad he speaks English _ that's hard to find at OSU [I was really hoping to be compared to Steve Martin or Gerald Ford.]
20.    Keep lecturer or tenure board will be shot.
21.    Maybe an eraser fight is in your future.
22.    Most of us spent the 1st 3 weeks terrified of the class. Then solidarity kicked in.
23.    Problem sets are a decoy to lure you away from potential exam material.
24.    Recitation was great. It was so confusing that I forgot who I was, where I was, and what I was doing -- it's a great stress reliever.
25.    TA steadily improved throughout the course... I think he started drinking and it really loosened him up.
26.    Text is useless. I use it to kill roaches in my room.
27.    Text makes a satisfying "thud" when dropped on the floor.
28.    Textbook is confusing... Someone with a knowledge of English should proofread it.
29.    The absolute value of the TA was less than epsilon.
30.    The class is worthwhile because I need it for the degree.
31.    The recitation instructor would make a good parking lot attendant. Tries to tell you where to go, but you can never understand him.
32.    This class was a religious experience for me... I had to take it all on faith.
33.    This course kept me out of trouble from 2-4:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
34.    Tried to be funny - wasn't.
35.    What's the quality of the text? "Text is printed on high quality paper."
36.    You're a great teacher, but I hate this class.
