Comment:
Professor Love is a genuine nice person and a joy to talk to. However, do not take this class unless it's essential for your major in order for you to graduate. He goes off of so many tangents that you are unable to follow the lecture. And it is unorganized and you never have updates on your grade until the end of the semester.

Comment:
Professor love genuinely cares about his students and wants you to succeed in his classes (and life). He has a tendency to go off on tangents, and is not always the most organized. However, overall he's a really good guy and very funny.

He takes a long time giving assignments back so you never know how you are doing. His exams are extremely long and he assigns way too many readings. Take the class with a different professor if you can

Comment:
Had Thomas for an internet based class. Very difficult to figure out where he was going, multiple disparate readings which lost a lot in the translation without classroom lecture. Much busy work, ridiculous "quizzes" taking several hours to complete. Loved the course content, too bad it was so badly presented.

Comment:
As other have said, he is very unorganized. Often hard to follow, but if you just write down everything you can sort through it later. He's a nice guy with good intentions, he is just a bit scatter-brained. Tip: don't push assignments until the last minute as there are many and they are often very time consuming (e.g. the take home exam).

VERY unorganized. All assignments end up being pushed to the end of the semester. The exams are pretty long, with insufficient time to finish. He is a very nice man, but if you can, I would recommend taking this class from another Professor!

Comment:
Tom is GREAT person, but is teaching style is a love it or hate it experience. I thought he was great though. He is a little unorganized, but he is helpful if you need some extra help. He also genuinely cares about his students. We still talk quite often on campus, and he always asks me about my future plans, even though I am no longer in his class

While it is true that Tom may be more unorganized than most professors, if you take the time to listen to his stories and talk to him outside of class, the courses that he teaches are really enjoyable! If you enjoy discussions and (often humorous) tangents, then take his classes :)

Comment:
He is a nice guy or at least seems to be. His class is terribly unorganized, though. His lectures are also a horrible experience because he is so incredibly scattered brained to the point of not finishing thoughts before starting new ones. If you can take this class from someone else, I strongly recommend doing that. You hate anthro after this.

Great teacher. Brings valid points and real life issues into all lessons, and willing to talk with students who need more help.

Very easygoing and approachable. Tends to be off in his own world, but forms a good cameraderie with students. Wonderfully helpful on a one-to-one basis.

Knows a lot, and uses silly hand gestures to convey his point! Definitely makes class interesting!
