Matthew Kimble
PSYC
The class was certainly challenging, but Prof Kimble makes is pretty effort-based and is very receptive to students seeking feedback or guidance, so just about everyone did pretty well in the course. Over the course of the term you work on a research paper, and the final deliverables are a poster, a presentation, and a final research proposal. There is also a quiz and an exam for textbook material, but those were not too hard. Kimble made a kind of dull subject into something very fun, and makes it clear he cares about the students and their success while still challenging them. If you can take this course with Kimble, do!

Professor Kimble is a great professor. Intro Psych was one of my favorite classes and I learned so much. Although his quizzes and exams can be tough, he is a fantastic professor who is passionate about psychology.
This course is lecture based, with 4 quizzes throughout the semester and a research paper on the topic of your choice. The professor make references to real life examples (his life, specifically) to keep everyone in the lecture engaged, and we did some really interesting small experiments during discussion. Even if you don't plan on majoring in psychology, I would still recommend this course to anyone who have even the slightest curiosity for the topic. As long as you read the materials and review the slides, the quizzes shouldn't be too hard. Kimble is an awesome professor.
