I left SDSU in 1989 and Dr. Boe is the only professor's name I remember. His class on the Bible as literature was lasting.

Comment:
This is his last semester so it doesn't matter anymore but I wanted to say that I think Boe got a bad rep on this thing. He has been one of the most approachable, interesting and fair teachers I have had in my 4 years at SDSU. He's a cool guy, too and really know his stuff. Its a shame it is his last semester, more people should have him

I am a straight "A" student and received a "C" in his class. Although my assignments were nearly perfect, he felt I was not excited enough about Milton and should have had more to say about his work. Hmmm.... Beware.

Its pretty apparent that Mr.Boe has short timers syndrome, he doesn't care about his students at all. I e-mailed him five times within the semester to set up an appointment and he never responded. He is retiring this year and doesn't care about teaching anymore. Luckily for you!

Worst teacher I've had. Class is so hard! I got an A on the midterm and the final and came to class everyday, but he still gave me a C in the class because he gave me no participation points, even though there is nothing to participate about! WORST TEACHER EVER!

He seems intimidating at first, but is a fair teacher and is willing to help if you ask. Detailed material so its hard to see what he emphasizes on. Tests are hard since there is a lot of material covered in this class.

Worst class I had this semester. The only thing interesting was the books. Very dry lecture and boring as hell. Falling asleep during class is unavoidable.

No journals, only quizzes and 2 tests (midterm and final). His exams are VERY hard. I failed the first one, but somehow managed to pull a C in the class. I think if you stick it out you will do fine. In-class lectures did not pertain to exams.

You actually have to try in his class, although it doesn't seem like it at first. Beware, his tests are hard, so you better know your ****.

Dry lectures. In office hours, you might as well just talk to a wall. Boe is arrogant.
