Dr. Wethey's Biol 570 class is a very interesting approach to ecology dynamics in communities. Expect regular homework due every week

Comment:
Wethey is an energetic and friendly man. one of the 2 classes per week is a discussion class where you come in with answers to questions about a scientific paper and talk about it/ annotate with groups. These are worth a huge chunk of the grade but they are easy. Exams are difficult and require a lot of creative thinking.

Comment:
Even though it's an Ecology class, it's an amazing class for any Bio student, as it focuses on teaching you how to read scientific papers more than anything. One hw assignment a week, and hw ends up being worth half the grade. The homework takes a significant amount of time, but as long as you do it and participate in discussion, you're fine.

I had a hard time following his lectures at times but the assignments are very simple. There are two tests - one midterm and a take home final. He does take attendance so don't skip!

Comment:
He was trying to figure out how to get us settled in labs but at times they lacked equipment or had to change to other rooms. The experiments didn't always turn out for the class. He needsd time management. Take someone else.

An amazing professor. Really makes biology research interesting. An incredibly easy class. If you do the assignments, your test grades almost don't matter.
