JOUR 285 Junior Grade Earned: N/A Required (Major) 3:07 pm, Nov 21, 2011 Report Evaluation		Brady is an awesome professor and human being. The multimedia classes he teaches all have fairly large workloads, but he presents the course in a way that is not overwhelming and he will move dates if he realizes he is assigning alot. He is on top of the latest web trends and tools, something that is invaluable as a student because often these obscure sites would fly way below my radar. He usually has something interesting he is into online that he talks about every day. He is very approachable and understanding, willing to work with students on almost anything. If you get him then just prepare to work hard and learn a lot of cool shit.

JOUR 352 Senior Grade Earned: B Required (Major) 11:31 pm, Aug 10, 2011 Report Evaluation		Great guy, class was a lot of work, but Brady made it tolerable. One will frequently receive this email an hour before class: "Class canceled today. Send me your drafts. Email the editors for story assignments." lol Oh Brady...

JOUR 285 Freshman Grade Earned: B Required (Major) 10:40 pm, Mar 13, 2011 Report Evaluation		Brady is awesome. he really challenges you to work hard in this class. It is really hard, but you learn a lot from him. Definitely one if not the best professor in the J dept

JOUR 390 Sophomore Grade Earned: A Required (Major) 11:14 pm, Mar 24, 2009 Report Evaluation		one of the best journalism teachers here. fair grading and really interesting and funny.

JOUR 390 Senior Grade Earned: N/A Required (Major) 6:50 pm, Aug 9, 2008 Report Evaluation		Super nice and helpful. I've had about four or five classes with him now, and if you can get him for Visual Communication, do it! Way more knowledgeable than the other guy who teaches it. If you do the work and study the night before the tests, you'll get an A. Used to run through the material a bit fast but is getting better and better. Probably the nicest and most helpful teacher I've had. Only thing he's a sticker on is attendance, so be prepared to show up EVERY CLASS! (you get one freebie and that's it.)

JOUR 390 Junior Grade Earned: B Required (Major) 1:54 pm, Apr 10, 2008 Report Evaluation		Brady is an overall good instructor. He is down to earth and just a regular 'joe', though he is cuter. He is a very interesting person. After being in some of the other journalism classes he is refreshing in style and topic (visual communications). You won't be disappointed if you take any of the classes that he instructs.

JOUR 203 Freshman Grade Earned: B Required (Major) 1:06 pm, Feb 23, 2008 Report Evaluation		This guy is laid back, and you learn a lot. The midterms are mediocre but it's all in the final story that makes your grade. He's a cool guy that's really interested in the subject at hand. I'd say he's one of the more interesting prof's I've had here. Plus...seriously he looks like a younger HOUSE.



JOUR 390 Junior Grade Earned: B Required (Major) 12:48 pm, Feb 14, 2008 Report Evaluation		Why he doesn't ask another instructor/professor or a student for that matter to check the software instructions he hands out is beyond me. He gives inaccurate instructions and it causes the class to be hindered in proformming their work. I witnessed other students waiting for 45 minutes for help, simply because of the 'bad' instructions. If someone could teach him power point that would be helpful. If you are going to read your lecture notes like a script, as fast as you can so everyone is writing at top speed, use a power point presentation and then post them on blackboard afterwards. It's 'almost' comical--maybe someone should video tape the process and use it in, what not to do as a teacher, instructional video. Unfortunatly it doesn't end there, but he gives these very interesting tests. . . YIKS! He seems to be, kinda trying, but not enough. Hopefully he will develop a desire to become a better professor and make the effort to become a grade A instructor of which he possesses the potential. We will see . . .

JOUR 390 Junior Grade Earned: B Required (Major) 11:01 am, Aug 4, 2006 Report Evaluation		Good class for a new teacher. I heard horror stories about the last professor who taught this class. Professor T. rocked!
