Comment:

Dr. Robinson's class was honestly pretty fun, if kinda dry at times. It helps if you enjoy the subject he's teaching on. Must come to all lectures to get notes, as the notes are the exam. Really likes papers with 8-minimum sources and pages, which makes for a challenging write.

Comment:

Dr. Robinson is such a great professor. He really likes the conversation with students and the debates and discussions we have really help you understand the topic. I would read the books for studying, but its not really necessary for class discussions. His power points are easy to understand and take notes from and hes super nice.

Comment:

I've taken Dr. Robinson for almost every class in my POSC minor. As stated below by others, he is the least biased POSC professor in the program and makes an effort to keep his opinion neutral. I found it hard to take classes in the program that he didn't teach. He is open for debate and will let you to speak. Super well-educated and respected!

He is one of the least biased political professors which is so important in his field. He is a good lecturer and shows documentaries that help us understand the subject. He is very interactive in class, allowing debates while keeping everything nice and civilised. Definitely take him if you have the chance.

Comment:

Very intense readings to keep up with in this course. If you attend, he'll take participation into consideration when grading exams/papers (very lenient) . His syllabus included popquizes, but he never administered them during our class. Extra credit is offered from time to time. Expresses great compassion during his lectures.

Comment:

Really knows his stuff and seems to be the least biased of the POSC profs. Readings assigned for each class and some quizzes based on them so you need to read or at least know what the book or article is about. Every class is a lecture. 3 tests based on lecture and 1 large paper. Take good notes, study them, and you'll be fine!

Comment:

Dr. Robinson is an all around good teacher. He can be dry at times and his humor wasn't really understood by all, but you can tell he is well versed in the subject of Political Science, especially racial issues and also The Middle East. His exams where multiple choice mixed with essays and were pretty simple as long as you attended class.

Professor Robinson was a good teacher. You can see his interest in his subject. Though personally I am not intrigued by political science, Professor Robinson made the class interesting.

I think Dr.Robinson is by far one of the best teachers in the political science department. His classes are very interesting and its hard not to pay attention. He is realistic and down to earth. You have to be worthless in order to receive less than a C in any of his classes.

Dr. Robinson is one of the best teachers I had while at Salisbury University. Very knowledgable and always willing to help you during his office hours. He is a fair grader, but you have to put in the effort. Almost all of the material on the test is from his powerpoints. Print them out and use them to study for tests and use should do fine.

Comment:

Very knowledgable. It's a good class for the sort of class it is (lecture based), I always prefer discussion based in poli sci but we can always ask questions and get discussion going which makes the class more interesting. Debates are so fun, but I'm a political nerd. Easy A if you put in the effort. Cool guy, good teacher, definitely take.

Had a few classes with this professor and I have enjoyed all of them very much! He doesn't mess around and these classes were not easy... but were well worth it. Also, he's a fair grader so it's not that bad. Very knowledgeable about his subject and very enthusiastic! Wonderful prof!

I've taken several classes with Dr. Robinson and have thoroughly enjoyed all of them. You can tell that he is really knowledgeable about the subject matter and goes out of his way to try to fully answer any questions that are directed towards him in class. He's a really fair grader, but be sure to do the readings!

Great guy. He makes very good points. If you make logical points/arguments (in politics) he will usually agree with you, to a point, or offer a fair alternative. Is the most objective and level headed guy in the POSC dept. O yea his classes are straight forward!
