Reviews of professor Kory Russel

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Pretty boring lectures but not too difficult of a class.

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
His lectures were very long and boring with no class interaction. Grading took forever, and he didnt give much help for tests, (He posted a study guide less than 24 hours before the final). However he was a nice person, not a harsh grader, and definitely has experience in the field he is teaching

He is a very well-rounded and clear professor who gives good lectures. While the class itself is a bit simple if you have any knowledge in science or environmental studies, it is still not boring. As long as you do the assignments clearly stated on the syllabus you will do great.

Professor Russel doesn't seem to know a lot about what he's doing and often seems distracted, but he cares a lot about his students and has interesting career experience in the field. He's a nice guy, but kind of a messy teacher.

Kory Russel is an outstanding professor. He is extremely qualified, and has tons of experience in Environmental Studies/Public Health etc. I would recommend him. Get ready to laugh and feel comfortable in an engaging and productive learning environment. Get engaged, do the readings, and you will have no problem.

Kory is an excellent professor, and if this was a normal school year and I had him in person, I'm sure I would have given him a 5. However, the class was not managed as well as I would have hoped. Grading took forever, lecture quizzes were speratic and not uploaded for weeks, and overall communication was limited. Fun and easy class though.

Lectures were interesting and short (50 minutes). I didn't take notes because there were no tests, but the lectures were engaging. He said at the beginning there would be surprise quizzes but we never had one. The grading depends on your GE, mine was really nice and generous with grading, especially because it was all projects.

Lectures were only 50min twice a week and you dont need to take notes. You dont even have to show up really since he posts the lectures online. Project instructions could be unclear at times. Easy grader, procrastinated a lot in this class and put in little effort and still got an A. Has weekly readings but i never read them and he never quized

Lots of readings but other than that, was an easy A. Prof Russel was super enthusiastic about the content in class and was engaged when talking to him during office hours, tried his best to help out. Tests were not worth too much of the grade and there was extra credit. Would recommend!

He gives a multiple choice quiz based on the readings each class, they are not that hard. He does assign 4 papers, but some are only 1-2 pages. There is a group project. Easy grader, but slow at grading assignments.
