Tim Kiemel KNES226 Expecting an A Anonymous 11/12/2023	Great prof, easy class. A nice guy and explains the content clearly. The class is very structured, being pretty much the same thing week after week. You can have fun with the homework exercises and the homework quizzes are easy, as well as the midterms. Both all multiple choice, covering the main topics of the course.

Steven Kahl KNES226 Expecting an A- Anonymous 05/20/2022	this was a TA for knes226, honestly really nitpicky when grading your work, you're likely still to pass the assignments, but he would show up late, nitpick your work for small errors
Tim Kiemel KNES226 Expecting an A- Anonymous 05/20/2022	course is structured so you pass if you put little effort. It's challenging for an A or better. weekly discussions require you to present to the class biweekly which can be a hassle at times, the lectures can be really dry depending on the topic. For an A you must pass 10/12 quizzes, 5/6 present, and 90%+ avg on all 3 exams (2 exams being 25q and final being 50), finals cumulative and the final tries to trick you a good amount. The TA can be a bit harsh on grading weekly discussion assignments, but you'll still pass if you put in some effort, they're just nitpicky
Tim Kiemel KNES226 Expecting a B Anonymous 05/16/2022	He's a nice guy class is pretty straightforward. You can fail all the exams and still get a B in the class. I took this for the gen ed and didn't really put much effort into it and still pulled a B. If you put any effort into the class you can easily get an A. As a teacher, he's kinda boring since he basically reads off slides, which kinda made it hard to go to lectures. I would recommend this class though for easy an gen ed.
Tim Kiemel KNES226 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/23/2021	The way that Dr. Kiemel grades the class makes it impossible to get lower than a B in the class if you just do the work. If you put a little effort into studying for the exams, an A is super attainable in this class. Overall, the lectures are boring, but I would highly recommend this class if you want an easy A.
Tim Kiemel KNES226 Expecting an A- Anonymous 12/19/2021	The class is pretty average. He reads right off the power points and goes through the slides so fast it's hard to write notes. But he posts the power points after class, which was helpful. The exercises are pretty easy, and we get to take our quizzes twice, which is nice.
