A really sweet guy - I recommend getting to know him a bit. He's really passionate about music. In MU125, he plays Dave Brubeck's music a great deal, which is wonderful.

Dr. Slotterback is a very passionate and extremely knowledgeable professor. Having an adequate musical background is helpful for MU125, otherwise the exams could be difficult. Reading the textbook and taking detailed notes is a smart idea. Those who rated Floyd negatively must have not put enough effort in learning about the subject of music.

Very nice guy! Exams are a bit difficult, but if you keep up with reading and do a quick skim of the chapters before tests you will be fine. Can be hard to stay awake if class is at 8 am, so just take notes to keep yourself busy. Overall he knows his stuff and never enters class without a smile on his face!

Great Teacher..very passionate and excited to teach you about music. If you have no interest in music you will hate it, since he focuses on having you listen to music. Tests are random, and its good to have a musical background if you want to take it. I give him two thumbs up!

Took attendence only for first half of the semester. The book is found online, no sense buying it. The exams are kind of hard, but he know's his stuff and is a pretty nice guy. I thought it was a boring class.

extremely boring class. don't bother taking notes from power points-none of the Q's on the tests come from them. doesn't take attendance. most of the time is spent listening to a series of endless movements. Showing up is a waste of time. Nice guy but doesn't know how to teach the musically retarded.

A passionate teacher who only wants to spread art to the rest of the world, this man is a rarity. The text tests are extremely easy and can be treated as open-book; the listening exams are ~20 questions and are fun as long as you actually listen beforehand. There is no homework. Compared to other MU125 classes I would say his is a breeze- take it!

Dr. Slotterback is a very good professor. I had him for a 8 am class and it was the best class I ever took. He cares about his students very much and wants you to like how and what he's teaching. Of course, if you didn't study the tests were hard, whatever effort you put in the class he put that tenfold. I hope that I am able to have him again.

An overall good teacher but the tests are horrible. Take another professor where extra credit is offered and tests are pieces of cake NOT this one.

This class is not for the weak hearted. without professor Slotterbacks passion and energy it would be biology all over again. I found an appreciation for a whole bunch of music I never had before. A background in music would have definatly been helpful, too much memorization otherwise.

I thought this class was okay in the beginning, but it got boring at the end. I found it hard to stay awake at 8am. The tests are fairly hard, but if you study a lot, you should be able to pass just fine. It definately takes outside of the class work. I would reccomend taking him.
