100% recommend this class to anyone interested in forensics! Travis has so much hands on experience and he always shares the coolest stories. He talks about cases he has worked on and adds real images to his slides. He has a great sense of humor and the 2.5 hour class always felt like it flew by. Go to class and do the readings are you'll be fine!

Travis is a pretty cool and laid back Professor. He is currently a CSI, which makes class pretty interesting since he tells a lot of stories about his experiences. He has few assignments, records lectures, and has all the quizzes due at the end of the semester (which is a good or a bad thing). I really enjoyed the class, and would take again :) .

Travis is an incredible teacher, he's a pretty easy-going guy and his lectures are very interesting. He's very good at story-telling which makes him talking about cases super fun, plus he talks about real-life cases and cases he was a part of. There are a lot of quizzes (about 20) but it wasn't too bad.

He is a funny guy and talks a lot about his job which gives good perspective. He's a little sarcastic which I know rubbed a few people wrong but he can also take a joke. I really didn't have an issue with the class the only hard thing was we didn't have a review day or go over some of the chapters for the final so be sure to read the book.

Professor Ashdown is very knowledgeable about Forensic Science which is really great but, he expects you to read his mind and when you don't, he can be really condescending. It was really hard for me to participate in his class because of this. Also when he gives you a low score, he won't elaborate as to why which is really frustrating.

Awesome professor, is willing to help outside of class! Really enjoyed the class and the information that he provided. The assignments were fun too.

I enjoyed this class, he was sometimes very dry and sarcastic and had some interesting comments. He used slurs a few times which I did not appreciate but if you are there simply for the class, he is well educated and does his best to make it interactive. Every class period is a lecture so come prepared to take notes and listen.
