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.
