Animal Behavior with Mark Spritzer is an incredible class. Spritzer has high expectations on his exams, however, all the material is on the lecture slides. Additionally, lab reports are challenging but manageable as long as you closely follow the rubric.

Professor Spritzer is a great professor. He’s very passionate about biology and it’s reflected through his lectures. The exams are not difficult you just need to memorize the entire slides. Although this is a lot of information, you always know what to expect from the exam, which I love. We have two canvas quizzes almost every week, they just consist of four multiple choice questions. There are also two short paper we write on research articles he provides.
