Basic intro to arch class, lots of fun field trips, some boring guest speakers, only graded on attendanceARCH1000 2026-02-26 23:49:05 +0000 UTC
Dan Adams is one of the most inspirational teachers Ive ever had. His lectures are interesting and his perspectives are really helpful in critiques. Hes also funny and laid back. I absolutely recommend taking his classes even if you dont plan on majoring in architecture.ARCHITECTURE 2019-09-10 22:57:32 +0000 UTC
Very inspirational and knowledgeable teacher in design tactics, highly recommend him for that course. Get him to show you his projects in his firm, it is very interesting!ARCH5310 2016-05-18 01:24:51 +0000 UTC
Wish he still taught the fundamentals studio. Dan was amazing!ARCH1100 2015-11-18 08:44:58 +0000 UTC
I had a great freshmen year studio experience with him. Wrote me a stunning recommendation letter for co-op. Very thankful for him.ARCH1120 2015-05-12 09:11:54 +0000 UTC
He's a good teacher who knows what he's talking about but he talks so much that you are sometimes forced to stay over an hour after class before he critiques you. You'll learn the most from him but you're also assigned the most work.ARCH1110 2012-08-06 14:00:10 +0000 UTC
Great professor, lots of fun, and very interesting. Assigns a lot of work and is quite tough with the grading but is very informative.ARCH0000 2012-06-13 10:45:59 +0000 UTC
This studio teacher is such a jerk. The amount of work he assigns is nearly impossible to complete in the allotted time. He'll look at your work for 2 seconds, laugh in your face, and tell you that your work is hard to look at.STDIO0000 2011-01-29 18:25:04 +0000 UTC
Attendance is mandatory but all he does it talk, super easyARCH1000 2024-12-02 04:49:33 +0000 UTC
Very good.ARCHITECTURE 2014-09-27 21:49:06 +0000 UTC
Talks like a machine gun but he's an interesting person. Make sure you don't put mulches in your design because he hates mulches. Very knowledgable and goes beyond the syllabus. The down side is that the class often finishes late, which is quite frustrating sometimes. Overall he's a great professor who has a good sense of humor.ARCH1120 2013-09-12 11:19:58 +0000 UTC
fun and relaxed professor, very passionate about architecture!ARCH1000 2019-12-02 14:41:45 +0000 UTC
He's very knowledgable, probably one of the best architecture professors in Northeastern University. But you will need to put in a lot of good and hard work to impress him. He also talks a lot so you'll always need to stay behind after class for at least an hour.ARCH1120 2013-09-10 15:36:08 +0000 UTC
