Prof. Freudenburg was the best teacher I have ever had in my life. His lectures were always followed by applause from students. His passion for trying to open the minds of young people shown through in how he attempted to expose you to the "bigger picture" of environmental issues. I was fortunate enough to be in his final class. He will be missed.
I was lucky enough to have taken my first environmental studies lectures with Professor Freudenburg during my freshman year. Because of him, I was able to see past the textbook and into the real world of which he spoke with great passion. Freudenburg will surely be missed as one of the greatest professors, and people, ever to have taught at UCSB.
Dr. Freudenburg was a special soul. He received applause after each class. He broke out in song on occasions. He could bring you to laughter and tears in the same lecture. UCSB and the world will miss this kind-hearted, generous and wise man. Rest in peace professor.
I am so blessed and honored to have had him as my professor. He always tied everything into real life situations. His words will always linger in my life. Freudenberg, you will be greatly missed.
Rest In Peace
Professor Freudenburg was an incredible human being. At his memorial a colleague mentioned that he always wanted chili peppers on this website. His brilliant mind and true compassion will be greatly missed.
Freudenberg is Stoic, If you are a freshman looking for a an interesting class that will helpfully welcome you to college, take this class, you will learn a lot and learn from one of the most respected environmental scientist to ever study es
AMAZING! People applaud at the end of every lecture. A great speaker and great powerpoints. You need to go to class to understand the lectures. Half the material on tests come directly from lectures. Great class, not too hard, but extremely interesting. He is very funny, charismatic, and engaging.
great teacher. people clap at the end of his lectures
He's a boss.
This teacher is phenomenal. Best yet is that he's going through a lot of personal ordeals and he still manages to be my favorite class and favorite teacher ever. I got an A- with no effort at all (I didn't show up to class a lot, I didn't read either book, and I didn't do the EC), but I still loved going to his lectures. TAKE FREUDENBERG!!!
extremely interesting. don't know if he will teach next quarter, but if he does it is well worth your while to take a class from him.
