Professor Schimel is a caring professor who is very passionate about the ecosystem. However, his class is pretty dry and I found it really boring. Idk why the reviews on here say he's mean because I found him pretty nice and he genuinely cares about his students doing well. Just really pay attention because his exams are hard

He seems like a nice guy/clearly is passionate about his work, but if you don't understand something he's super condescending and borderline rude. He also kept hosting class/section when the TAs were on strike & that honestly made me lose respect for him. If you're interested in soil science you'll have a good time but otherwise don't recommend

GREAT GUY. professor schimel is a wonderful, caring professor who loves his students. however- problem sets are very difficult unless they are explained by the TA. weekly quizzes have some vague, unclear questions. get ready to do your own research to understand what he teaches in class if you are unfamiliar with these concepts. must be smart.

She might know stuff but she doesn't care if you do. She is completely disinterested in helping students succeed in her class.

I loved Josh! Not very interesting material, but he's so enthusiastic so it makes it better. Go to class and pay attention; if you understand the concepts you'll do well on the tests without doing readings. I would definitely recommend taking any class with Josh. This class would have been very dry with any other professor
