Love Fuchs!! Take him for any class that you can, he's hilarious and an enjoyable person to be around. In dance he makes you feel very comfortable and teaches in a way that makes sense. Even if you hate dancing, you will have fun. Textbook is used for final notebook project and to study for final. Final is difficult if you don't review your notes.

Comment:
His self-defense class is fun. The only bad side is that he is a tough grader and gives homework that is very tedious. He treats it as a 3 credit course even though its 1 credit. Very passionate about his class and he is also very caring and respectful. I recommend him out of most in the department, just get ready to do a lot of work.

Thomas Fuchs is one of my favorite professors ever. This man helped me get through a traumatic experience I had prior to taking self defense. He will stay after class with anyone for any amount of time. He will talk with you one-on-one whenever you need it. He is extremely understanding and willing to help you if you put the time in! TAKE HIM!!!!

Comment:
By far the best teacher in the department. I was DREADING taking this dance class, I hate to dance + thought it would be so embarrassing. BUT it turned out to be completely the opposite with Fuchs. He made it extremely fun and not embarrassing at all. He makes everyone get to know each other so you feel comfortable dancing with every1. TAKE FUCHS

I have taken Fuchs for 3 different classes, and he is the BEST. Literally the best teacher in the department. Such a nice guy, always wants to connect with students and make class fun and exciting. He makes it very easy to get to know each other and make friends with the whole class. You will REGRET, NOT TAKING FUCHS for everything you can.

Fuchs is the man, take Fuchs for whatever class you can. He loves what he does and really enjoys getting to know his students. If you do everything your supposed to do, you should be able to get an A. Your grade is based on what you deserve, so if you don't do any work, then no chance he gives you a good grade.

AMAZING! Try and take him for any class you can. Fuchs is always entertaining and makes class fun. He does expect quality in the journals but if you take the time to do it each day and not wait until the end you will do fine.

Fuchs is the man. Take any class you can with him. He's a good teacher who will bend over backwards to help you out. As far as the notebooks are concerned, just stick to the basic guidelines he gives you and you'll pass (its a pass/fail notebook) Easy A.

I took several classes with him, he is a cool teacher but definitely has his favorites. He is also an easier grader for females. I have never seen him give under a 3.5 to any female for anything in any class.

good guy. fun class. i worked my ass off on the notebook, but he took points off for petty stuff. IF you have any injuries, but still can participate you wont be able to keep up in class. i had 4 knee surgeries, but still could participate. he doesnt wait for you, and gets mad when you PHYSICALLY cannot do a certain task, like the crab walk.
