Prof Rexius is the best professor I have ever had. He has so much passion! You will work and learn so much from his instruction but dont expect an easy class. It will challenge you... get involved in a group. Cant skip classes or you wont pass. Awesome!!

Comment:
He literally never shuts up, either about geology or stuff that doesn't matter. Tests are stupid long and have questions that aren't relevant to the subject matter and questions that don't seem to matter at all. He grades really heavy on the tests too. Getting one thing wrong for multiple answer questions tanks the grade.

Professor Rexius is a true gem. If and when he retires, Schoolcraft will be missing out big time. I'm not sure if rocks are interesting or if the way he taught them made them interesting, but I LOVED his class. There are three labs and 3 exams. No homework and no textbook. Take notes and study for the exams and you'll get a good grade!

Rexius is the best professor at Schoolcraft hands down. Took Physical and Historical with him and I plan to take Mineralogy. He's probably retiring soon, take him while u can. Take notes and study, you'll get an A. Pretty much 3 exams and a couple of labs, no homework but you HAVE to study. He's so passionate about rocks and you will be too after.

I loved having him, he made the class very interesting and he kept the room up beat. The labs were probably my favorite part of the class personally. I would definitely take a class with him again

Professor Rexius is the best professor at Schoolcraft imo. I took him for physical, then historical, then mineralogy. What can I say, I like geology. But I like it so much because Rexius was so passionate! It wasn't an easy A; you do have to study. But as long as you take notes and actually try on the labs, you'll do fine. No textbook. 10/10.

Like many have already stated here, Jim Rexius is the best teacher Ive ever had. I still share some of the stories he told us (Mt. St. Helens����). Ive had a love of rocks & fossils since I was a child, but this class fueled my passion for geology & I still share facts I learned in this class with my family every time we happen across a landform.

THE best professor I've ever had. I took Geology as a general education requirement and he made it the best class I've taken at SC. Graded by hands-on rock labs and 3 lengthy tests with no outside homework. Not an easy A, but it'd be hard to fail. Rexius is a legend & gives insight on the origin of all the rocks we see. He has been to 49/50 states.

Best teacher I've ever had. Makes boring rocks fascinating. Go to class on time and work hard in the class and you're good. No homework outside of class. Dude has some crazy stories to tell. Crazy in a good way.

I took both Rexus and Samer. Rexus is the best teacher I have ever had. He made rocks and science one of the best classes I ever took. To this day I still remember his lectures on rocks and think about them when I see a rock 6 years later. Must pay attention to his lectures including his stories. They all relate. Tests are hard if you don't prepare

So, I took this class a long time ago, and he may not be as much fun now. To this day, all his teachings are part of my life. Everywhere I look I see rocks. Stupid rocks, but these became rocks with stories after taking his class. I think there is always someone that can inspire the uninspired, and he is one of them. Thanks Jim.

He is the worst professor I have ever taken. He downgrades you if you dont do well on a test and makes smart remarks about it. I will never take a class with him again dont take him!

Jim is a great professor. Attend all his lectures and get there early and sometimes stay late, sometimes hell give extra points if you stay after. Study the material from the study guides and the lecture notes and you'll do good on the test! He makes you work for your grade but its a great class and you'll find yourself fascinated by rocks after.

Show up to class and stay before and after! This class is tough, there is no slacking but if you really put in the work you will do okay. Memorize and really pay attention during the lectures, he has super long exams that are worth a lot of points but if you do all the memorization you will do fine.

No homework, no quizzes, no textbook! Show up to class every day or struggle. Do not be late or disrupt his lectures, or extra credit points will be taken away. The only graded things are the 3 labs and 4 big exams, so make sure to study. Class is interesting and fun. Professor is skilled and respectable.
