Good

Professor Kiess is a great guy, good teacher, and easily the least annoying character of all the teachers for this minor. A lot of professors in college will unnecessarily try to get in your way of what you want to do. Professor Kiess doesn't, he wants you to get where you want to go. His class is extremely easy, no annoying group project in his class, I highly recommend him.
