Brix is such a cool professor, I'm a IDS major and I hate science but I actually got a good grade in this class thanks to his teaching. His lectures are great, pod cast, slides online, and he's very approachable. He has a way of teaching things in a way anyone can understand, and doesn't make you feel dumb if it takes you awhile. My TA wasn't the greatest mostly just because he was shy and a bad public speaker, but Brix even came to one of my sections so he was always there to ask. His grading is fair and you can take a sheet of whatever you want into the final! Take him!
