Does Paris teach it over the summer?? I had him and he was awesome a few years ago

3/1/2008 3:51:08 PM

yeah! he's actually the one signed up to teach it first summer session. thanks for the recommendation!

3/2/2008 2:08:36 PM

Parish is the best teacher i've had at state. i took statics over the summer and it was not bad at all.

3/3/2008 7:19:02 PM

I work with his wife

3/3/2008 8:05:43 PM

if you are willing to do homework every night, take it with parish because he takes into consideration your work ethic which helped me get by assuming you go see him for help when you need it.

3/9/2008 6:32:58 PM

Just don't steal or vandalize anything if you take this class.

parish is quite good, but he's not even the best prof in CE. not calling you a liar or anything.

3/10/2008 11:22:45 PM

i might be the SI tutor for this over the summer.

3/13/2008 12:31:20 PM

Does anyone know if Shree Krishna or Savadatt Siddharth are okay professors for Statics CE 214? Has anyone had them?

3/23/2008 3:10:50 PM

^^well you and i will probably be well-acquainted by the end of june. haha

3/23/2008 3:49:24 PM

^^

Sid is awesome. Just make sure you go to every class. You really dont have to read the book at all as long as you go to class everyday.

3/23/2008 4:44:56 PM

be prepared to do nothing but statics the entire summer session. At the first sign of having problems go talk to Parish. It will defiantly help you out in the end. FYI he moves insanely fast over the summer so if you are not up for studying several hours a night you probably are not going to do to hot

3/24/2008 2:11:16 PM

Who would you guys say is better Dr. Tayebali or Dr. Siddharth, in the Fall?

3/27/2008 9:34:58 PM

i don't know siddharth, but i had tayebali for 313 and thought he was great.

3/28/2008 12:02:55 AM

yeh.. i had tayebali for solids (over the summer) and he was pretty good..

3/31/2008 9:49:19 AM

If anyone in the class is on here and got the first one on the homework, I could use a little guidance.. All i know is I'm overthinking it.

5/23/2008 12:22:00 PM

shoot me a PM if you have a question. i'm not in the class, but i took it (in like 1999)

5/23/2008 3:33:20 PM

Or if you posted the page and problem number (assuming the same book is still used) I could give ya some pointers.

5/23/2008 6:18:52 PM

There's been teachers and narcs thinking that would be cheating. Be careful if the prof seems like a dick.

5/23/2008 7:30:43 PM

7 homework problems for one night is ridiculous. i spend wayyy too much time doing work for this class.

5/29/2008 8:34:12 PM

the drop button is a lot easier!

5/29/2008 8:40:33 PM

^^ head up, kiddo.

5/30/2008 10:03:12 AM

^^^best way to learn statics is to do a lot of problems

5/30/2008 10:33:55 AM

i know it. it's not like they're really hard, it's just time-consuming. thank goodness i'm not working 30 hours a week this summer. haha

5/30/2008 12:08:35 PM

^^^^^ i just wanted to carrot up to you as well...i get jealous when other wolfweb males talk to you

5/30/2008 1:49:30 PM

Is there a study group for Summer I CE 214? I need to review some statics before taking Mechanics of Solids Summer II.

6/6/2008 3:47:46 PM

Theres not really study session, just people doing the homework after class, your best best would probably be to just ask a professor what you should look over.

Hahaha... Hang in there! It's going to get worse are time goes on. Much worse.

Although you are IE so I can't speak entirely for your major, but stuff really ramped up junior and especially senior year for me. Just soldier through and work out as much as you can. Write down all the theoretical stuff you know and you'll get some partial credit (probably).

6/6/2008 9:26:07 PM

^yeah, for IE i dont really think I'll use Statics much. Most of what i learn in my major classes doesnt use statics as a fundamental. *shrugs*

6/8/2008 10:41:40 PM

Yeah, I had the same thing with CE215 - Dynamics. Every CE has that problem, actually... Haha... I think some of the reason for taking some classes that we don't really ever use is for ABET accreditation.

6/8/2008 11:00:19 PM

CE 214 ain't bad. Just stay on top of work and stay focused.
