Dr. Butler is an absolute beast! He is the nicest guy and one of the best professors I have had here at maryland. I love him. The class is very straightforward. There are 3 tests which are online and open note and as long as you show up to every class and write down the notes from the board you should be fine. I loved this class and love Dr. Butler. Take this class if you can!

Dr. Butler is the absolute best!!! He is the reason I switched my major to community health. Super kind and caring. Go to his office hours and don't miss a lecture.

Dr. Butler is the best professor I have had at UMD so far! He is so nice and helpful. He really wants his students to do well so his quizzes and exams are extremely straight forward. If you go to class you will get an A+. He does sometimes randomly do discussions grades so you have to be in class, but as long as you go every week then you are almost guaranteed an A.

Professor Butler is wonderful! His lectures are informative, and he often includes real examples from his own life and career as a public health professional. The one downside is that he talks very quickly during lectures, making it difficult to take notes. Professor Butler posts his slides but leaves out information in an effort to make students come to lecture. HLTH140 is a great intro course to take if you're interested in healthcare. The assignments are easy, mostly 1-2 page reflection papers. You don't need to buy the textbook for this class; I never used it once. Take notes and you'll do well on the exams (which are all multiple choice)!

Great professor, very interesting class. Easy work and tests are not hard. One of my favorite classes, and I felt like I learned things I could use throughout life. Definitely take his class.
