Comment:
Professor Thomas is highly intelligent and really has a passion for what he teaches. He is willing to help students who put in the effort and he recognizes the students who set themselves apart. He is a good guy and a good teacher, but don't take his class as an easy A elective course.

Great lecturer. Manages to keep your attention and concentration even though the class is at 7:55 am. Not a class to take if you are looking for an easy A, but definitely one of the best classes, along with Arch002, I have ever taken.

Prof. Thomas is the perfect college professor--- charming, knowledgable (to say it mildly), and wise. He holds students to a very high standard, yet is also kind and understanding. He cares about his students. It is apparent that he is thrilled by the course matter. Dense, inspirational lectures peppered with light humor.

Comment:
wonderful teacher. prepare for the essay questions on exams by really listening during lectures when he talks about the implications of some movement or architectural style and how it's connected to others that he's been talking about. then write down detailed examples. times like these are the most important to take good notes.

Bruce's class was pretty fun considering it was at 7:55am. He always writes the stuff for exams on the board before class. That's basically all you need to know. I'd suggest getting to lectures because the text sucks to read.

Very interesting guy-he actually smiles in lecture. He's a real morning person, so make sure you can handle that. He may be a hard grader, but I appreciate his sincere feedback, considering he must read 100+ student writings each time one is collected (exam or term paper)

Bruce is excellent when it comes to maintaining an interesting lecture. He is clear with what he says and writesdown all the vocab you will need to know for the exams at the start of each class so there will be no surprises. As far as reading, only necessary to skim book before an exam.

the best, fun, straighforward, concise, a few funny stories to keep you awake, and why does everyone complain about his paper grading? you must be writing incomplete sentences and not spell checking .. his grade is an honest reflection of your work

This is an easy class as long as you attended--the 7:55 time is not the easiest to wake up for. Taking good class notes is essential. As long as you study before the exams and do at least a cursory reading of the book you will be fine.

Very straight forward and organized with his lecture. Take good notes on what he says, go to lecture, study your notes before the test, scan the book for vocab and you're all set. Believe it or not, he will keep you awake at 7:55 am in a dark room.

Bruce is the man. I've never seen a professor as enthusiastic about his work as he is. I've also never been so awake and interested in a class that early in the morning.. Yeah, reading the book is crucial.
