Genuinely the nicest and most caring man Ive ever met. Considers every student to be his children and he means it. Couldnt have asked for a better person to meet in my life.

Quite the interesting and entertaining fellow. Class was slow, and the movies he showed in class were very dry. Wasn't a fan of writing a textbook as the final project- time consuming beyond belief. The tests we took were basically mini versions of our textbook. Somewhat interesting class, but a big culture shock (I took this as a freshman)

He treated me like his own child. Never took his class, but I sometimes watched band practice just because the lectures he gives are so funny, and long! He's had a lot of problems in his life, so let's not judge. Will be sad if you don't join band upon his request- but band is awesome for the friends and if you like music! He's a cool guy.

Comment:
Himmleberger's classes are ridiculously stupid and a waste of time. You just write notes that he reads directly from his notes that came from an old textbook. I was very disappointed after he recruited me and told me how great everything would be but instead he just makes you become his concert band slave for a small scholarship.

How does this person get this job? Why would the president allow him to teach here? There is no teaching, just boring regurgitation of old outdated notes.

Comment:
He just lectures and you take notes, so it's pretty much the slowest class you'll ever have. He's really nice but the way he teaches is terrible. There was no text book, and all we had to use was notes. Unless you like that, don't take his music course!

DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR unless you want to throw your money down the drain. Should not be teaching--is good at leading band but cannot teach a class to save his life. A Syllabus? What's that???

Do not under any cir****stances take Singers for course credit. You will never have any free time. Art doesn't teach the class but he runs everything and makes you do extra stuff.

Oh my God...how dreadful. I thought the class would be fun and would get to see some cool movies. You watch movies but they are one's you have seen 6 million times. He reads from the textbook in class. Your notes are basically the textbook verbatum. How depressing, a big let down.

Absolutely a waste of time. You can get an A just by enrolling but be prepared to learn nothing. I think he just wants people in his classes because there is hardly any work. A nice guy and all but I always wondered why I was there. So I stopped going and still got an A by coming back for the last class.

Oh Art... His lectures consist of reading from the text book. We got a syllabus on the LAST day to overview what we did in the class. Tests were photocopies of the exercises at the ends of chapters, and he tells you this. He wants everyone to get good grades, but more concerned with learning something. EASY A CLASS - and he likes it that way.

Don't listen to that last guy, this Art is not a good teacher at all. He doesn't care about attendance and he rambles wayy too much about things that are not related to the class at all. STAY AWAY!!

Art is the best teacher ever! His stories are always funny, although not always relevant. His class is always fun and I always feel like I learn something from him. Music was never better! Get fired up!

Nice guy, really cares about you even on matters outside of class room. He goes off on tangents but it's an easy A, he's flexible with due dates too!

Enthusiastic, but demands too much time. His classes are a waste of time but riduculously easy. You don't have to show up to class very often but you better not miss band or watch out for the wrath of Art.

Comment:
Art is crazy. But in the best possible way. He considers every member of the band one of his children. He'll help you whenever he can but in turn expects you to be dedicated to the programs that you're a part of. He is an excellent conductor and theres never a dull moment. If you don't mind being dedicated to music, then you wont mind Art.

This guy is a dunce and his classes are not at all challenging. You can skip half the classes and he'll never know the difference.

He coerces you into doing things that take up way too much of your time. Nice guy and all, but the music program is rather stiff and too many teachers with military backgrounds. Be ready to play marches all day.
