John Sellen

History
Professors: Respond to evaluations by creating an account
When I took this class his name was Tom Sellen...not John Sellen, but by reading the previous post I know it is the same guy. His class is crazy boring so it is hard to keep up on notes. It feels like highschool again which means it is pointless but easy. Just ask him what will be on the exam and he will give you "hints". Also, he barely grades anything so get to know his TAs.
Its not that he's a bad proffessor its just that he's REALLY BORING! He gives out only 2 exams, however.... his lectures in class seem to never relate to what shows up on his exams. Niether do his bridge assignments that he assigns every week. He needs to be more organized. He also gives out a research paper
