Reviews of professor Kevin Ratigan

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
He has been teaching most of the courses required for construction management. When it comes to the tests it just gets harder from there. Sometimes there will be classes with 8 exams and they'll be multiple choice with some fill in the blank. Everyone who took him has told me it's hard and I agree. His classes are very challenging.

Construction materials and techniques, previously this class held serious technical information. The study of building components by constructing wall mockups and installing utilities. Our class pounded a nail into a piece of random wood then skipped more than half the labs. What a joker... well I guess well get our piece of worthless paper.

Wait, I paid for this course? Ratigan is the reason Im going back to CWU, this program has brain drain for continuing to allow this. I talked to employers who considered this program bottom tier, now I know why. Good riddance, Im off to an accredited program.

Busy work gets old really quickly. This class is just a memorization fest. Kinda silly considering codes change constantly and are different in each jurisdiction. How do you look up a code? Your guess is as good as mine.

Reputation speaks for itself. He has enormous stones to proctor a college level drafting class without even opening revitt software on his computer before his first day of instruction. What a great role model, he really sets a standard for young people joining the construction industry.

Usually not in his office during his scheduled hours. When I asked questions its like talking to a brick wall, mostly getting answers that dont address the question. I feel he glazes over when I ever tried to get more detail on a topic. But besides that hes a nice guy and has a fairly easy class.
