At times lecture became boring with Professor Potter but you could tell he really knew what he was talking about. My class may have been just offered for one semester, but he made it as interesting as possible by bringing in different people to speak about modern sports. I appreciated this effort to make it more interesting a lot!CLASSICCIV371 2015-07-21 14:54:35 +0000 UTC
Ridiculously awesome advisor / professor. Knows everything, will help you learn it. Gives great advice. Sometimes when I have free time I just drop by his office and get him to tell me old man engineering stories, like of the guy who purified beach sand to grow silicon wafers.EECE3000 2014-01-19 16:28:46 +0000 UTC
