Comment:

He was alright. His class, despite much of his over-your-head academic reading assignments, wasn't that hard. I happened to mix up the times for the final, so I actually missed it, and, let me tell you, the guy's an unsympathetic brick wall (kind of an ***hole). I liked his in class discussions and some of the material. He knows his stuff, at least

Comment:

I hated this teacher, he was unclear, mumbled in a monotone voice during his lectures, and did not clearly answer your questions. The assignments were pointless (he made my class outline 22 chapters of the text). I passed the class, but was very unhappy with his teaching methods.

Great teacher if you really listen. He knows an amazing amount about history and really likes what he's teaching. he hates apathy though, and it shows.

Comment:

monotone. weekly quizzes. get notes from the books webpage and read thru that to pass the quizzes. he doesnt quiz on what he teaches in class. papers graded hard and comments dont tell you how to improve, definitely quote things in your paper to get about 10 pts. more. he has a comedic side tho.

He is horrible, he makes no sense what so ever. His quizzes are hard and he does not grade easy on his papers. He is extremely boring and shows no emotions to anything that he talks about. He gives no help... so goodluck taking his class!!

Comment:

I don't really understand what is going on in this class. You have to write papers and he wants footnotes (whatever those are) and sources but I don't know where to find them. He isn't helpful at all, he tells me to go to the library. The quizes are pretty hard, and who knows about the midterm.

The first day you might make the conclusion that he is boring as hell. But after that you will start listening for his comedic remarks. His class is not hard and there is not much work at all.

Easy class, with lengthy assignments that do not have to be done. Class is boring at times, but he cancels class a lot.

Comment:

talks more about philosophy than history. so boring that you start to notice that he always scuffs his shoes when he walks and that he always misses the same belt loop. Assigns seemingly impossible books to read but you don't really need to read them. seems hard but he is fairly easy.

Comment:

lectures are actually very interesting, though the readings aren't incredibly easy. The class overall is pretty easy. He's very willing to help if you're having problems, and is good to talk to. Very knowledgeable.
