Reviews of professor Joseph Hertz

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Very considerate of how difficult the course is, but will make you work for a good grade. He has a clear passion for the material and will not let students coast through the class. You have to engage with it. However, although it is challenging, he is eager to spend his time with curious or struggling students.

This is, by far, the worst professor I've ever had. He would power through 150+ power point slides in less than 75 minutes. Never explained labs, or cared about lab safety, would just expect us to know what to do. Never gave quizzes back for review. He encouraged questions, but could rarely actually ANSWER your question, like he didn't know it.

Rushes through your basic text book slides but when asked to explain further he would run circles around your question and then just move on. Never got a syllabus, no outline for the classes. Quizzes and tests are filled with ridiculous questions that were never returned or reviewed. No structure or help during lab. Would not recommend!!
