Reviews of professor Cecil Compeau

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5

Dr. Compeau makes signals and systems course tediously difficult. 26 worksheets, 9 problem sets, all graded for accuracy, while other professors grade hw based off of effort and understanding. Difficult projects, which he grades very harshly on along with his exams. His exams are nothing to what is assigned in the worksheets or problem sets.

Dr. Compeau is a Teacher that is real and professional in his teaching. He is honest and knows his job. If not for some internal conflict and some misunderstanding about the professor I would have continued with him. Get ready to read, Participation matters, Study and do your homework. Get ready to do your projects and defend them individually.

Dr C is unavoidable if you graduate from Tx State in EE and he can be hard and will make you work. However, he (more than any other professor I know) wants you to succeed. The Force is strong with this one.

Dr. Compeau is awesome. His classes are not only interesting but fun. He gives you everything you need to be successful in the course. Rework the in-class worksheets a couple times before the test and you'll ace the exams. He is always available for questions and probably the best instructor at providing detailed and speedy feedback (even emails).

Dr. Compeau grades like a psycopath. He is a lazy professor who doesn't allow you to have your exams back, because he is paranoid about them ending up on the internet. What professor doesn't give back exams? Avoid this professor at ALL COSTS if possible. Dr. Compeau is HORRIBLE.

I took Professor Compeau for Signals and Systems. He is the funniest professor I've ever taken, he makes you want to go to class. He creates an environment conducive to learning and asking questions if you don't understand a topic, as well as explains things very clearly. You'll regret not taking Dr. Compeau!
