Reviews of professor Elgrie Hurd

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
By far one of my favorite professors! He cares about your future career and puts you in" what you would" situations/ relate your career to the lecture topic. VERY INTERESTING course, I wish we went more into depth, will get your mind blown. The newest Textbook isn't required whichever edition is fine, extra credit opportunities are given. 10/10 rec

A lot of work, took him for a 8wk course and if you miss just ONE thing, even due to illness, he wont let you make up.

Easy class. However, what made me give an overall low review for this professor is the way he grades essays. We had one major essay that we had turned in during March, only for him to put in the grades at the very last hour in May. Very difficult essay grader and almost gave everyone a failing grade on their essay.

Great Professor! Plenty of extra credit!

EXTREMELY political, even when there's absolutely not relevance. He makes his personal views known to all. There was no teaching from him. He doesn't seem to be willing to listen to anyones input and doesn't like to be asked questions or have his views challenged. He's a tough essay grader. I hated this class and did not enjoy "professor" Hurd.

Overall good experience, gives a lot of opportunity for extra credit through out the semester. I wouldn't take him again, he's the type of professor to word test questions in a confusing way. I, personally, struggle with those types of questions. I took the class during summer II and online. Make sure to understand concept and not just memorizing.

Wow. I am so thankful I took professor Hurd's class. He really takes the time to listen to his students. He ask questions that are open ended. Be prepared to talk as he will set up lectures around profession. I definitely recommend you take his class. You will not regret it. Grading is clear and gives constant feedback. Participation is key!

Great teacher. I took him this fall and he is one of the best teachers I've had. He tells you what you need to do to pass. He gives extra credit throughout the semester and is available outside of class.
