Comment:
He might really care about his students, but he was always at least 5 minutes late to a 50-minute lecture and largely absent until he realized a large portion of the class was doing horribly. Even that would have been ok, but I couldn't understand a single word he said or wrote. I hated every minute I spent trying to understand him. See old tests.

He may be a good research scientist, but he does not care the success of his students.

Comment:
He is completely useless as a professor. Study all the old tests, from the semester and library reserves. Class is a waste of time, but he does mention things occasionally that wil be on the test. Study hard, study ahead, go to the TA help sessions, look over his old tests.

Honestly the worst professor I've had while at Hopkins. Rambles on about irrelevant nonsense during lecture, which is pointless. Tests are not impossible though

Clearly knows his chemistry. Southern droll is not the best lecturing style. Read the book and you will be fine.

Comment:
This guy is the biggest waste of time since distribution credits. It's useless going lecture. He rambles on and goes off topic and always seems surprised when everyone starts to pack up to leave. His notes are completely illegible unless you sit in the first few rows. The best thing to do is just take notes from the textbook. And pray like hell.

Comment:
Worst Professor ever, he comes to class 5 min late then spends 15 more mine trying to fix this worthless camera to project transparencies on the board because he's too lazy to make power points. Read the textbook, study back tests, do practice problems and you should be okay. Class is pointless

Comment:
He mutters on top of his southern accent so he's hard to understand. His slides are poorly made, illegible, and he's in general not a very invested professor. Cares little about students and makes midterms the day before.

Horrible class. The tests routinely include material not covered in class or in the textbook. Avoid the class. He also wore the same clothes every single day. Every single day.

Comment:
The man is a rambling, incoherent waste of time. I cannot comprehend how he is a professor. In addition, to mumbling, I have no confidence in his grasp of the subject material. In all likelihood, I could learn better from a TA who does not even speak english.

Worst professor I've ever had. At all costs take the other section. His tests have no relation to study material or previous test. You can not understand him in lecture and does an awful job teaching. Have to rely on the textbook, but even that is barely enough to pass this course.

Comment:
Kit is incredibly hard to understand. he has a thick texan accent and i could never read his handwriting. class time was often spent simply trying to figure out what the figures on the board were. if you read the book, you were pretty good, but the trick is to look at his old tests on the library website.

If you can find any othewr source of information, use it, because the lectures are not helpful if it's your first time seeing something...and if it's your second time seeing it, you'll understand why.
