Who is your favorite professor and why?

“My favorite professor has been Mr. Gonzales, who I had for English 101. I could tell that he actually cared about the students. He was very blunt on everything he said, but he was good on giving the students life lessons on what to expect after college, and it helped that he was also funny.”

-Joey Hauss, Nursing Program, 29, Freshman

“My favorite professor would be Professor Phoenix, who was my counselor for Special Services. Professor Phoenix is the person who mentored me since I was 18 up until now, and the person who helped me through a lot of hard times. He encouraged me to continue my education and not give up. He motivated and inspired me through those hard times.”

-Edward Rodriguez, History major, 25, Senior

“I would say Professor Potter from my Sociology 3 crime and delinquency class. He’s a down to earth person. He made sure the student understood the classwork, and he’s easygoing and friendly. He’s all around a gentleman. I recommend it to students who haven’t, to take a class with him. He’s an awesome professor.”

-Alicia Boatwright, Administrator Professional major, Sophomore

“I would say Professor Sirott, who I’ve taken twice for my CAOT classes. The things I liked about her were that she was funny, friendly and that she should easily help out all of her students.”

-Sarah Jones, Computer major, 27, Junior

“Professor Saenz because he’s very straight-forward with his students and is clear in what he wants and asks of a person. I took him for English 28, 101, and 102, and liked how he gave his students challenges on ways they could do better work and the prompts and topics he introduced were up to date were what caught my attention.”

-Annamarie Rodriguez, Undecided, 19, Sophomore
