Personally, I think the person who said Edelson is "the worst teacher in california! do not take his class" is seriously mistaken. As a fifth year, I am taking Astro 7 as my last GE (talk about waiting until the last minute). Anyhow, I've had A LOT of different professors, and I'd have to say that Edelson was one of the nicest and most concerned professors I've had. Though he can be sort of absent-minded, it starts to become endearing and really funny. You can tell that he really knows his stuff, and genuinely wants students to learn and even think for themselves. He is a fair and pretty easy grader - he even asks to meet with people who are getting the "worst" grades in class, and tries to give them a "pep talk" to do better because there's still hope to do well. If you have to take an Astro class - take it with Edelson.
