Comment:
He is so nice and I like his lecture very much. His lectures are very interesting and made me understand the materials. He would have a review class before exam and it is not too bad. Only a ten-page paper and a mid and final exam and a project. Feels sorry that he is going to retire. He is amazing. Two movies in class as well!

Comment:
Had him for Buddhist Thought, he is very knowledgable and very nice. His lectures consists solely of him talking and retelling stories, but are very interesting. He is hard to budge from a B+ on essays. You will need to be somewhat familiar with the books for the exams and papers.

Dale is kind, professional, and understanding. He's full of knowledge and loves to share his wisdom. Team-taught classes with him and Malek are great because they balance each other nicely. He teaches what he loves and his passion is contagious.

Love him. He is so wise and calm and allows conversations in class to stray to any sub-topic of buddhism. No question is a bad one in his eyes. Lots of reading but it's all interesting, and only 2 papers. Easy and so enlightening.

Comment:
Wright's calming presence and soft-spoken lectures epitomize the Buddhism he teaches. He makes the extremely esoteric into comprehensible information. Wright is also lenient when it comes to being a day or two late on papers (especially when you're ill). He's a genuinely nice person.

Dale is great! He's really relaxed during his classes and is always ready to answer any questions you have. His class isn't simple, but if you pay attention and read the material you can get an A. Plus he will whip out movies from time to time.

Nice guy; seems jaded and bored a lot of the time, but full of facts. Doesn't engage with ideas very much. Listening to him lecture is like reading a book...that's a good and a bad thing
