Ricky is a good guy who cares about his students. That being said, its a boring course. I took it for my minor and its 10% homework, 10% midterm and 80% labs. If you DO the labs, they are fairly easy (and Ricky does his part to make it less painful like counting your last lab as a 100% as long as you get 100/200 points). Its annoying to have to drop everything to do lab (and to schedule a lab only to have it cancelled). Less painful that taking a 3000 level class, I suppose.
