Best professor PSU had to offer! I graduated years and years ago, but his class is the only one I remember. Amazing man who taught me more in 1 semester that all the other classes I took at PSU combined.

Frank is a wonderful man. He taught the way teachers SHOULD be teaching--life lessons instead of copying from a book. He made me think about things that I will continue to think about and tell my kids to think about. He definitely influenced what I see as important in the world today. Thanks Frank!

I will remember Frank's lessons for the rest of my life. I often tell Frank's stories to my friends that don't even go to Penn State. He is the best professor I have ever had. During his annual last lecture, you'd look around a room of 1000 people and not a single dry eye.

One of the best, if not the best class taught at PSU. He teaches real life lessons, and not random data you'll never use. Sad to see him retire, but he said he'll be around somewhere on campus next semester.

Taught things about life that you never expected to learn in a class. He wasn't afraid to say what he felt needed to be said. Best Professor Penn State offered... we'll miss you Prof Clemente!!!

I graduated in 2003 and I still speak often of this class and Frankie Clemente. He teaches lesson that you would never expect to learn from a class. The class is fun and many people sit in to listen even if they are not taking the class. It's definitely worth taking! One of the best classes at PSU when taught by Clemente, if not the best.

Best and most interesting professor at PSU. By far the best class that I have ever taken. If you don't take this class, you will be seriously missing out. Of course attendance isnt mandatory, but you will want to go.

TAKE THIS CLASS. I was a freshmen and stalked my way into it this year, best idea ever. He's only teaching one more semester (for real this time) so just keeping watching everyday until you get in. The class is amazing and you actually want to show up for it. Frankie is by far the best prof here at penn sate.

The best professor I have had. Do not leave Penn State without taking his class..unless he retires...then you missed out..

This is one of the best classes anyone can take. People say he brags about his life, when in reality, he tells his own stories so that students can both relate and learn from his experiences. He is a wonderful professor and person, don't leave PSU without taking it!!

Can't really add anything to what other have said. Bottom line, his class should be required. TAKE IT! Point blank period.

I would love to know the majors of whoever gave this a 1 easiness. I doubt they finished their degree at Penn State. Frankie is the man, very motivating & uplifting class. Listen to his stories & don't worry about taking notes. It is a joke of a class, an easy A, but most people take some life lessons from it. Don't be fooled by the failing idiots!

I should have gone to class. I only went about six times, total (including for exams). Now I'm kicking myself. Some of the things he said might just have changed my life. Don't make the mistake I did and skip class. And grades? You'll get an A. Just go.

He is the best professor in the world. I can only aspire to be half as good a man as he is. His life is unbelievable and his stories and lectures will change your life forever. Take this class, you will not regret it.

Most amazing class- i have never enjoyed going to class so much this is a class everyone should be required to take at Penn State because it is so helpful in the long run-i recommend every person take this class- attendance is not mandatory but you are going to want to go to every class trust me- best class ever

Frankie is the man. I never felt that I was actually in class, just going to listen to some great stories a couple of times a week. The exams test the stories he tells in class, some statistics, and some vocab terms. There are also two papers graded by the TAs. Go to class and he might just give you a new perspective on some things in life.
