Reviews of professor Kurt Schimmel

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Most likely won't answer your email's, doesn't create a new D2L shell and results in it being messy and difficult to navigate because of the mess of due dates and past assignments that have been replaced, also does not provide feedback.

His class wasn't hard at all. As long as you long you showed up you were most likely gonna pass. He just kinda rambles on for the whole lecture and will give you points for showing up.

This man. I postponed my graduation, just to avoid taking him twice. He can be funny, but is lowkey cringey. RUDE, RUDE, RUDE. Narcissistic. Taught us wrong info multiple times. Doesn't have set deadlines, which is nice (may just be from COVID). It's sad because this class would be AMAZING and so useful if taught by a decent human who cared.

You teach yourself most of the material through textbook readings and other quizzes/assignments through CONNECT. His lectures, although mandatory, are more of an accessory for the actual book/test material. He is very funny but will put you on blast if you're caught not paying attention. The class does help you get to know yourself professionally.

MRKT 230 - It wasn't an option but I had him for this he mostly just told stories the whole class but we were able to complete all assignments online and as long as you did them and the reading it was pretty easy and you are given plenty of points. Overall not too bad

Awful. Took this class online and he just did not seem to care about us at all. His syllabus was far from accurate and he never contacts us or responds to emails. We do a lot of essays with no examples or feedback but tough grading. I would not recommend this professor.

Dr. Schimmel is big on giving real life examples. Powerpoints are not used. He expects you to read and do the quizzes before class then he ties what you read in with examples. Open ended exams that are example oriented.

I have taken 2 classes with this professor and got nothing out of either. He is unclear on EVERYTHING, gives assignments that use websites we don't have access to, is super unorganized, doesn't know how to answer your questions. He is not helpful at all. Emails and D2l site full of typos and mistakes. Unprofessional. Passes you no matter what.

This man is the worst professor I have ever encountered. Im lucky I didnt have to deal with him until my final semester. Nothing is learned in class. 3/4 of the semester was spent just trying to get software to work. He effed up my grades and gave me 60% on worksheets i completed while giving 100% to students who didnt even do them. AVOID.
