Midterm was pretty fair. Final was really tough his questions were super specific and required the most detailed memorization. He's approachable otherwise.
Dr. Clegg conveys the fascinating information presented in this course clearly. He is very involved in research but is also a great teacher. He is helpful and speaks to students with respect. He has high expectations from his students and the exams are difficult but fair. Also, take his stem cells course.
Amazing professor. His lectures were entertaining and he was very approachable during office hours. For the midterm i would say study the slides he doesn't really use the book.
Tests are exclusively on the lecture material. Didn't crack the book once. Lectures are incredible, this man gets me more excited to get into biology every day. He like to set up a big joke for each lecture, and his side tangents about things he does in the field his own personal experiences show you how the material relates to the real world.
Dr. Clegg, or Doc as you will get to know him by, is the best professor I have had at this school. This course is also the best I have ever taken; taught like a grad seminar, attendance is mandatory (and encouraged) but there is no final and the lectures (guests almost every class) are extremely interesting. Take this! And also MCDB 152 with him!
