CollegePhys 125 is awesome, one of the best UCSB physics department professors.
Grades not posted to Gauchospace. I got A and B range scores on my work. Somehow got a C in the class. Professor Richman refused to explain this discrepancy when confronted.
Richman is a brilliant professor and researcher who cares not only about his own work (which is CRAZY!) but about his students getting a fundamental understanding of electromagnetism and light. He also teaches great problem solving techniques. Take him, and GO TO LECTURE!
Richman makes a rather difficult subject (electromagnetism) quite straightforward. He follows a very well-proven teaching method: explains theory, gives formulas, and shows examples, no derivations. Also has in class Q&A that is very helpful. Wants his students to succeed, giving them every available resource. Put in effort and reap rewards!
