Reviews of professor Robert Mevissen

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Hes a great professor and is really helpful, he talks to his students a lot and has really taught us so much. He just wants you to participate and youll do fine. He needs to be appreciated more because he puts up with complaining in class.

There are weekly quizes that can be difficult to keep up with. If you do though, they are really not that hard. Just actually read the assigned readings and the answers are right in it. He clearly loves the topic of climate and is passionate about it. The class is focused on climate even when its not a climate class. Overall he is a good professor.

As long as you are paying attention to all of his lectures and watching the online ones, the class is relatively easy. He's also just a pretty nice guy, always gave extensions without a problem, and was a VERY fair grader. I wouldn't take this class again (Environmental history is just boring) but I would definitely have the prof.

DO NOT TAKE UNLESS YOU ARE A HISTORY MAJOR! First off I will say he is a very nice man, but the work load was way too much. For this not being a class for my major, it was the hardest class I took. There was a quiz every week and the final paper was the hardest paper I've ever written. If you just need to take a history course, take something else!

I honesty would not recommend taking any courses with this professor. He assigns a heavy/ very particular workload and is very strict with attendance and participation. His exams are also quite challenging. Unless you are a student that's on your A-game ATLEAST 90% of the time, I would recommend taking an easier professor if possible.

This professor is genuinely a great individual however, this class is very fast-paced and has a lot of readings along with weekly quizzes and, lectures. Professor Mevissen assigns a lot of work at once and expects a lot in a short amount of time. However, if you do all of your work and stay on top of lectures, you should be fine.
