Comment:
Honestly, you just have to work hard to do well in Prof Mahant's class. If you never go to class or make an effort to read your textbook then you'll obviously be unlikely to get a good grade. She provides good feedback if you ask her for it; it's not difficult to understand her -- you just have to pay attention in class!

Comment:
I took American Foreign Policy- can't remember the course code? She's a nice prof. She does not take attendance but expects to see you there. She is VERY knowledgeable and passionate about her work. And she loves to go off on tangents. She is sometimes difficult to understand, so listen closely!

Yes, her English is hard to understand at time, but you get used to it. Geez, how many people here are POLYGLOTS? The lady is brilliant, fair and she cares a lot about us. She even bought krispy Kreme to celebrate the end of the exams. Give me Mahant anytime.

Comment:
Anyone wonder why after 30 years of teaching as a professor is she emailing her own unifinshed textbook that is poorly written and contains millions of mistakes and biases? How about how they could make students pay $600 to listen to her irritating voice and not understand a word. Anyone?????

Very knowledgable, sometimes hard to follow in lecture, loves class participation, doesn't mind repeating herself or clarifying, very understanding, approachable, and flexible, uses guest speakers, movies, over heads, etc.

Probably the easiest course I've had post-secondary. She's a bit difficult to understand, owing to her lisp, but she's a sweet woman and loves the politics.

The woman is a tad eccentric, very high-strung and tends to ramble on and on. She knows her stuff, but her class isn't for the amateur.
