He does take a little getting used to, but if you take good notes, his class is a piece of cake. He bases almost all tests and quizzes on the notes he gives. He's also really funny; a good guy, all around. I highly recommend Osborne.

Rather lively and creative teacher and always tries to keep a positive & fun mood. I've had him for both Cultural and Physical Anthropology and you can tell that he is really passionate about anthropology. The articles really shouldn't be left unread as he does put them on tests but overall as long as you read and pay attention you should do fine.

Really good teacher. I really like the way that he'll make up the most random of stories just to help explain the point he is trying to make. Chances are im going to barely pass his class but its entirely my fault. when he tells you to read the articles make sure you read them. VERY GOOD TEACHER

This man has accomplished more then any student could only hope for! He does MANY activities on campus and he is the most inspiring teacher PC will ever see. EVERYONE enjoys his humor and he is a very easy going teacher. STAY ON TOP OF YOUR ARTICLES! SERIOUSLY! That will be the only reason for you to fail! READ!

Mr Osborn is a nice funny guy. I didn't really like his physical anthro class though. And also only gives one day to redo late work but takes a bunch of points off.

Mr. Osborne knows his stuff and it shows. He makes jokes and really makes an effort to get to know everybody so that the class is comfortable asking for help. He lets you know exactly what is on the tests. Be sure to show up and read the articles and you will get an A for sure!

Great professor who really cares about his students. Show up to class, take notes, and you'll do fine. Fairly easy class if you actually make an effort.

He's like a not-so-dirty George Carlin. He was great! I had him for the summer semester and I really enjoyed the class (a lot more than I thought!).

Tests are from lecture. Don't need to read except the articles. You have articles that are due about every other week, one page long, not hard. Great teacher knows his stuff. You have quizes too. Need to go to class to do good.

Mr Osbourne is one of the best professors Ive had. I took his physical Anthro and Cultural Anthro class. I feel that he does an excellent job of teaching both courses. I still remember most of the material covered although it's been over 2 years!
