Winter 2022 - Whew Chile! This Class has great potential. However, this Professor is not helpful and when I asked for clarification he always responded with an attitude. If you don’t like helping students, please do not become a professor. Also, the final project should be changed to something more engaging and substantive. If you are stressed out don’t take this class.
