Decent teacher. Kind of aloof but he does care. Labs will be hard if you don't read the book(its expensive even to rent so i checked it out from the library). Group presentation at the end of the quarter. A lot of work piled up on us at the end of the quarter but otherwise workload was very manageable. Would definitely take a class with him again.

Do not take him for Tropical Meteorology (GEOG133)!! I am a hardworking student, but this class likes to stack up work on top of work. Look for a different professor. I enjoyed my first meteorology class, but this class turned me off from the subject completely. DO NOT TAKE!!!

There were so many parts to this class it was a bit overwhelming but wasn't hard. I found his lectures to be kinda boring but the material was interesting at times. There was a group project which wasn't difficult at all but I personally hate them.

This class had way too much going on. There were 3 essays, a group project, mandatory attendance, weekly labs, weekly assignments, multiple weekly readings, a midterm, and a final. Most of it was pretty simple, but it felt like tons of busy work. I didn't hate the professor, lectures were boring, but went weirdly into physics.
