So as teaching goes... prepare to have him try to explain the slides that come with the book as though he has never seen them before... every class. 20 hours per week? Try more like >50 hours per week. Oh and let's have tons of assignments for each week and then he doesn't even look at them. That's the best. I really like how he basically tells you that you are nothing and an idiot... and then when the REAL professionals come in to do lecture, they tell us that the real world is nothing like this mad man says it is. Want to know what SAD2 is like? Get a chair, sit down, and punch yourself as hard as you can in the face. Oh by the way, he will rip apart 5% of your assigned actions and then not even comment on the rest, but rest assured that he think you are an idiot and that even though he doesn't know the answer, or how to actually do it, he should grade you on his best guess. I love computers and programming but this guy makes it feel like a root-canal every single day. I am beginning to form a distaste for the very thing I once loved. Thanks for ruining my dreams...

The only reason I gave him an F, for all of his grades, is because there was no fucking F-. Leitheiser is a horrible professor simply because his requirements are too hard, needed in too short of a time, (if you dont know timeboxing you WILL), and hes a straight up cock sucker. I'd like to burn DB Designer 4 on a cd, smash the cd, and then ram the pieces down his throat while yelling "welcome back that bitch!"

Worst professors I've ever had!
"Welcome back" "Have fun" I do not understand why he says/writes that... Okay first of all I think he is in the wrong profession- rather he should not be teaching but actually going out and doing the stuff he attempts to teach. Like other reviews said- I do not think he likes teaching but choose to be a professor? Anyways to the course. His power points are carp and his teaching is carp. This makes his exams and assignments next to impossible to do. Your best friends will become your fellow classmates and Google. DB Designer 4 is carp and MySQL browser has more bugs than windows. This just adds to the many issues the class has already. "Most of the test will be from the PP's rather than from the book so just focus on the PP" Do not believe him when he tells you these lies. To prepare for his exams go to his power points and grab the keywords. Type thest keywords into Wiki and read. This method will give you a high F or low D on his exams. The curve will give you a solid B or high B. (I went from a 58% on the mid term- with the curve I was at a 88%) So try and maintain around a C average on the assignments get B's on the exams and you should get a B in the class.

Ole' Bob is a tough teacher and a true ass in the class. He asks questions in class and waits for the right answer, even though nobody knows and makes anyone he calls on look like an idiot. Not very nice BOB
