Comment:
Dr. Dyer was a good professor. Not exactly easy. But if you study, you should do fine. He's really passionate about his field and the subject. If you're looking for an easy A, don't take the class. If you're looking to learn, then take it.

Professor Dyer is a very tough grader. He does not show interest in helping his student. The only solution he may offer is taking a writing intensive class. NO THANK YOU. This class will teach you useful information.

Comment:
The workload for this class wasn't bad. It was 5 short papers, lab assignments, and 3 take-home exams. However, Dyer isn't good at explaining things and the slideshows were all pictures with no words. I also found that grades for female students often reflected whether or not they were flirtatious with him and not the quality of their work.

Comment:
In his class you will read chapter books about the environment. You will have chapters assigned for each class). There are quizzes each class about those chapters. Not that difficult, based on main points of the chapter. You have to write summaries on the chapters. Class was interesting and I enjoyed it. Did not have to take notes.

I loved this class I found it interesting. When you have to do essay questions for him as long as you have the basics/general idea and can back up your statement you'll be fine. He was really helpful. He's one of those professors who likes to make you think in abstract ways. I enjoyed the class. And look forward to taking another with him.

TAKE HIM FOR ECOLOGY! I found it much better to just sit and listen to him talk than to try and take notes. Just study the sections he tells you to and you're good for the quizzes. With the essays, as long as you show that you get the basics of the topic and write a good sounding essay, you'll be fine!

Very good professor. Grades very hard but is willing to answer any questions you have. The only downfall is he talks way too much about politics in the classroom. But other than that he is recommended.

A great professor. He's funny and he really understands and loves ecology. I would recommend him. Go to every class, take good notes, and study at least 5 hours for each exam.
