Reviews of professor Alexander William Egner

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Alex was a great professor, who is very caring and gives helpful feedback. The class felt a little fast-paced but overall I liked the structure of the class. I just wish he elaborated on what you could fix/improve as he is the type of professor who doesn't give anyone a 100% score for projects.

Hard grader. Has large and few projects, if you get a mid grade on 2 of them, the pressure is on the other 2 to get your grade up. When opinion is asked for, you get very bland general advice, and is not available half the time. It's hard to know what is expected because there is no rubric.Some instructions left out unless asked specifically to him

Alex gave great feedback during critiques and was respectful if you made mistakes. He also met with each student individually during projects which was helpful. My only complaint is that I thought he was nitpicky when it came to grading exercises and he didn't explain why points were taken off. Overall, Alex is a great professor that I recommend!

Alex is all around a great professor who creates a productive learning environment and gives good, specific, helpful feedback. I utilized office hours a couple of times and it was always worth it. The projects were engaging and didn't feel rushed  Alex prioritizes the process and quality of work over a hard deadline. Prepare for long critiques!

NOT A SINGLE PERSON IN OUR CLASS recieved full points on ANY of the assignments. far too harsh of a grader, even after giving you advice to improve something before you turn it in and he says that will get you a good grade, he then grades terribly. nice guy in person so the grading hits you out of nowhere. AVOID AVOID AVOID if you need good grades

My favorite prof at WWU. Alex is a wonderful prof. In-depth feedback to each student and is always available for help outside of class. Truly cares about his students success and wants the projects in his class to be beneficial to students portfolios. Gives quality real world knowledge. Very passionate about design and will go on some tangents.
