    are you kidding? Spaf and attallah love feeding students their own opinions, and I have to hear them regurgitate to appear smart. They are considered good profs cause the students don't have to think for themselves.

    I work in the building next to CERIAS and they are in one of the worst buildings on campus... They are definitely some smart people though. Spaf is an awesome guy and great teacher.
