Thing is, you do learn. Relational Database concepts have not changed since 1988. He can be a bit much but what I learned in his class was very useful. Minus the shell scripting project...

Needs to be kicked the hell out as far away from teaching as possible. I don't know which century he was considered a good prof but I'm 3620% sure that it's definitely not this one. Notes are from previous students and they have mistakes all over them. This guy's midterm and exam have typos all throughout and if you misinterpret them, too bad.

Comment:
AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!! This professor is the most narcissistic lecturer I have ever encountered. He is more concerned with talking about himself than teaching. A student walked in late and this professor called the security on him. I cannot believe that we pay money to be in this guy's class. Highly disappointing!

Avoid his classes. He either likes you or he doesn't. If he doesn't like you, you are not getting a good grade. Almost all the time he talks about himself not the subject.

His instructions are unclear. His lecture delivery is also quite poor. His only redeeming quality is that he can be funny at times.

A God! ATTEND ALL HIS CLASSES! If you do you will get a very high mark. He stopped teaching us the course 1 day to teach us a different course with a bad professor. Taught us more in 2 hours than the other prof did all semester.

"UNIX, I did that, I was there" OK buddy we believe you, why are you yelling this fact out at us like we do not? Thing is the world has moved on, just a little bit from the days he invented linux and brought it over to Canada. Fun to see the guy rip into chatty students. Worth the price of admission overall.

Claims not to know what a pdf is. You program DB2 via shell script which is useless in the real world. Give incorrect examples. Teaches 2 or 3 completely obsolete 1960's databases and test on them as well, even though you only have access to SQL and DB2. "UNIX, I was there. I did that!" is very close to Masons "LINUX, I was there I almost did that"

can't teach. his tests include things he doesn't cover. makes a big deal about wasting class's time when students come in late but all he does in class is get sidetracked and make up bs about how great he is.

Not going to understand him well. Midterm's hard. Spends half of the class talking about useless things. Doesn't use technology when it's programming. No examples or anything.

Very disappointing. He spends 50% of each lecture just yelling at students - either for walking in late or for *asking a question!!*. Doesn't cover the material in a clear way. Never touched the textbook once. He seems angry all the time. Repeatedly emphasizes his years of experience to try to brainwash you into thinking he's knowledgeable.
