Fall 2016 - *GEO 5 earth and people’s ecosystems* This class was solely interesting! Gonzalez was very passionate about the subject matter and one was simply engaged in her lectures. Personally, i loved taking this class with professor Bridget! If you love learning about the environment then this is the class for you. The only part that was semi-difficult was the lab report because it is due near finals week (hell week). But overall, I recommend taking GEO 5 with Gonzalez.

M107 DON'T TAKE THIS CLASS. IT'S THE WORST CLASS I HAVE EVER TAKEN AND REGRET IT! Professor Trimble is nice, but that doesn't mean he won't load you with 120+ pages worth of reading over a two day period. He almost refuses to acknowledge that you have work and classes other than his. His soil report is easy to do but his tests are difficult. Also, the books definitions don't apply to his tests, he wants you to use his outdated, very specific, definitions. Oh and not to mention that he is the most boring lecturer ever! He tends to go on tangents and doesn't really know how to structure tests or teach for that matter.
