Comment:
Chief is one of the most knowledgeable professors I've ever had, and his classes have truly bettered me as a person as well as a musician. He cares about all his students and doesn't hold grudges. He makes class as easy and user friendly as he can without sacrificing the education of his students.

Comment:
I love Chief. He made music theory interesting, and I care about music theory about as much as I care about what an individual snowflake is doing in Canada. Because I knew nothing about music, Chief let me make random (yet somewhat pertinent) analogies to analyze the music. I had fun and pulled a decent grade. Good job, Chief!

Chief is one of the best professors I have had so far. He is a wonderful conductor. He is very helpful as an advisor and is always available for any advice. Very easy to talk to.

Very funny! He makes class enjoyable. He never seems to be having a bad day, or at least he doesn't take it out on his students. That's always a plus.

Chief is the best choral teacher I've ever had. He's really good, and he's hilarious! I have a really good time in every class.

Great Guy! If you payed enough attention and did what you're supposed to, you would have been able to sing sitting down. It's not that big of a problem.

All smiles, but seems very phony. I totally agree with the "arrogant" comment.

Chief is wonderful! To the person who thinks he's arrogant, I think you ought to take a good look at yourself before you judge others. You obviously don't know him very well.

Great professor. Cares a lot about what he teaches and about his students. Offers a lot of help for redeeming yourself if you've done poorly in the beginning of the semester. Willing to spend plenty of time out of class to help you understand concepts.

One of the most pompous and pretentious people I've ever encountered. His "Chief" persona is nothing more than a smarmy sham. Plays favorites big time.
