I do not like this Professor.

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Okay lectures, kinda funny guy. This class was hard and learned a lot but would have liked to see more understanding towards students and adjustment to course to better cater towards a learning environment, especially more accessible office hours and showing respect to students.

Very strict grader and not very understanding. Robert puts numerous truck questions on the exams and assigns very heavy amounts of homework. Very difficult to understand lectures and frequently mumbles to himself.

Would frequently cut students off, made the quizzes super difficult and essentially wanted us to fail. He also had no interest in responding back to students on time or helping them out, as he only had one office hour per week, and they would switch up every week.

I spent more than 20+ hours on each project per week, so his class was pretty stressful for me. However, if you plan on earning only a passing grade, then his class is pretty doable. No tests/quizzes/exams, but you will have projects every week, which will count as majority of your grade.

Very tough grader. This guy does not care about his students.

OS is one of the harder classes at WPI, and Walls doesn't really attempt to make his students' experience in the class much better. Not very open to helping outside of class, and gives unclear advice on IA when help is needed. Also needed to republish test cases for multiple HWs because of some error, which hurt students who were already stressing

He is genuinely one of the most condescending, most absurd professors at this school. She makes me want to never study biology ever again. Zero respect for students. Ignores emails and is not willing to ever help a student improve. There is not enough space in this rating to express how terrible of a person and Professor.

This class was a mess. Quizzes were structured for you to fail. They were closed book, in class quizzes. The questions were very specific and they were graded very harshly. On top of that the quizzes were retroactive, so anything you have learned in the class, can be on the quiz. Concepts are dense. Please take with another professor.

Tough class with brutal projects, and he made it tougher. Quizzes were tricky, and Walls never shoots you straight. It's almost like he's constantly trying to trick you, and it's not a welcoming learning environment.  Every 1-on-1 encounter I had with him, he seemed annoyed and dismissive of my questions. Future students: beware, and good luck.
