  Colvin is by far the worst professor at Cal Po.....the world. Wait wait, hear me out, let me explain.... he can't teach the material, he won't answer your questions, he skips around topics, and he spends half the class time preaching about the Alamo or whatever, how Texas should belong to Mexico. I do either two things in his class, laugh at him or pick my nose because both those activities at least stimulate my brain cells. "Ya see it?" "Damn California chalk" and "Are-thur" are some of his favorite sayings. Oh and don't expect to pass his class unless you have degree in Maple. His answer to any question he does not know...."hmmm let's see how Maple does it." I swear, if you take this guy, you will hate Math FOREVER, if of course you don't aleady. As you can see, I don't advise taking his course.
