Joe is a great professor! I had him for BIO 121 lab and he was very helpful when we were filling out our lab reports/analyses. He truly cares that his students succeed! As long as you show up to the lab and follow his lead you will do great! P.S. I took this class in a hybrid format. Every other week we were in class, the weeks between were online.

To be honest, I don't know if he was a good professor or not. I never showed up to class because everything was online, including the final exam. I aced all of the assignments, quizzes, and final exam just with my previous knowledge of what it means to recycle. Super easy class and easiest A I've ever received. Would recommend for an easy grade.

This profesor was my favorite so far this year. His lectures are very engaing and fun. You have to go to letures if you want to do well. His quizes and exams are very fair, but you have to study to do well. I would highly reccomend him, I hope down the line I can take another class he teaches.

Honestly if you have the chance to take any of his classes do it!! He's super funny, lectures were fun, and there weren't any tests. You had a 10 question quiz every week, and the course was paperless. The only test we had was the final and it was online. Would take again!

Joe is a great professor. he is very easy to understand and very easy grader. not many tests in the course however, there are a couple assignments and quizzes. As long as you help him out a little bit, he will help you out a tremendous amount.

Professor Jacquot was absolutely awesome! He was hilarious, super understanding and really encouraging. He made it a 100% paperless course, the book was online (and free!), all quizzes (short/weekly) and assignments online and the only test we had was the final. As long as you read, you could skip fairly often. I learned a lot and he made it fun!

He does not give homework which could be a good thing and a bad thing. The only grades for the class are whatever you get in lab and the exams he has. He teaches this like an upper level class. You must make sure that you are prepared for the exams or else you wont pass the class.

Joe is hilarious and very relaxed. He does assume that you know a lot, but is always willing to clarify if you ask. He does not give many exams, and gives no homework, so make sure you're prepared for the exams!

Joe is awesome, took him for Mammalogy and going to for capstone. Pay attention, study, and you'll do great! Very casual, easy going, and helpful. I can see him being harder for a general BIO class since he's an upper level prof so I'd avoid if you're not a BIO student.

He knows his stuff, but he goes off on tangents that only make thing more confusing for the student, and his power points have very little information to work from. If you do not take notes in class, you're doomed.

Comment:
Nice Guy. Knows Bio. Relaxed atmosphere. Not a great 121 teacher. He's scattered and assumes we know too much. Tests are difficult because you don't know what to study. Class is frustrating but not impossible, figuring out what he is saying is half the battle. If you love bio you'll do fine. If you just need it to fulfill a credit you'll struggle

Joe is an excellent professor! I had him for mammalogoy and again for capstone. He is always fair and clear about his expectations. He is genuinely interested in the subjects he teaches which makes it easy to learn. Doing the assigned readings and participating in class discussions are the best ways to do well.

Joe is such a cutie! He's very funny and laid back. His exams are really tough, but there was relatively little homework besides reading and 1 page summaries. Class participation is important. Labs were really fun and he's a great guy to enjoy a hike with! He knows a lot and poses a lot of interesting, thought provoking questions!

Take him for capstone... he makes it so much easier than everyone else. The presentation is very low-key, compared to other sections. Make sure you keep an eye on the syllabus because he expects you to do things, even if he doesn't necessarily tell you how.

Comment:
he got stuck teaching our human sexuality class when our professor got mono. he made way more sense than our first professor did, and is really great at getting the class thinking and therefore willing to speak. i'd recommend him.
