Not at all interested in taking this class, but quickly became my favorite class. He keeps you interested in the lectures and makes it entertaining. Can't really ask more from a professor. You don't need the book. Study the slides and the test will be simple. Awesome professor: teaches you the material in a bearable manner. I highly recommend it.

Even is an amazing professor. He makes biology, even the branches of biology that I originally had no interest in, seem so much more fascinating. He makes the subject matter come alive. I came away from each of his lectures feeling that I had learned a lot and had spent my time well.

Usually it's hard for me to actually attend EVERY lecture of a class, but it was not the case for EEMB2/ 3. Prof. Even IS defintely one of the best professors i've had here in UCSB. Not only does he make class fun, his style of teaching actually helps you retain some of the dry materials needed to be taught. Take him and you won't regret it. :)

This prof. and class was awesome! It not only is interesting, but it is easy and fun too! He is hilarious and tells priceless stories so you should definitely go to class. The book is pointless to read but you should read the reader (which is interesting anyway). Highly recommended!

BEST Biology teacher ever, I was dreading taking this class because I am not a science person and it ended up being my favorite class of the quarter and he is one of the best teachers i have ever had, I highly recommend this class, perfect for the GE requirement

loved him

great prof! tells great stories and class is pretty easy if u go to lecture

Great professor! Go to class and you dont have to read anything. He gives you the exact pages to read and focus on. Review last years midterm (if you know some one who has had him). Its very similiar. DR EVEN ROCKS!

best bio professor on campus

awesome

well...being that i am my stupidest in science, this class was so hard. so hard to the point where that i am retaking it to get rid of my F. yeah, if you sucked at bio in high school, do not take this class. it's not "easy bio" like my friend told me, it's just "easier" than what the bio majors take. still way hard. however, he is a cool teacher.

Hilarious! Also makes things very clear. Great professor!

BEST science/bio professor out there, PERIOD.

great lecturer. very interesting and funny. really laid back and easy to talk to.

Best teacher I have ever had! I absolutely adore him.

best ever

There's a lot of material but he has slides online and is really clear about what he's going to test on so it makes it easy to study.

so interesting. He was able to relate the information to everyday life. Class was good and so was the professor. I read the entire reader because it was so interesting!! And he is hot.

He made lectures fun and interesting. He has a sense of humor and isn't bad to look at!! :)

He is SO awesome! He made Bio Interesting with all his examples and throwing vegetables at us! HAHA!

I LOVE HIM

He is hilarious!!!

His name is not TJ, it's Thomas (in case you look for him on a catalog). He is the best professor I have ever had in 3 years. His tests are exactly what he says they'll be. And they're super easy if you study and go to lectures. On top of that, he's not dull or boring, very funny and brings the lectures to life. TAKE THIS CLASS HE'S GREAT!

I love him! Easy class, and he really does have a gift for teaching! He really cares about students and wants them all to do well; he really wants us to learn the material.
