Comment:

Speaks very softly but he knows his stuff. Provides amazing and helpful exam reviews. I recommend going to his classes to grab an A but you can survive without attending classes and focusing on the exam reviews (like I did). Exams are fair, just know the material on the review sheet and you won't be disappointed!

Comment:

Professor Buj is gifted in pooling together interesting material and presenting it in an unbiased manner. He presents facts relevant to the history and is very pleasant to interact with. Fair tests and manageable content load; go to class and do his readings, he will not try and trick you. I look forward to taking future classes with him!

Comment:

Professor Buj exhibited some biases during my time with him. He said some very questionable things about women and black people specifically (only said outside of class). I was very disappointed that he felt comfortable enough to say that stuff in front of me so I avoided his other lectures.

I stumbled across this site, after reminiscing about certain types of art i like. 10 years later I still remember what a fantastic lecturer Prof Buj was, and felt the need to counter a couple mediocre reviews about him. You should want to expand end enlighten your mind ... Prof Buj is a gem.

Comment:

Dr. Buj, is very knowledgeable and sweet. However, I found his lectures dull. quite soft spoken, so I needed to sit in the front row to hear him. Easy to get a good mark in culture and ideas since the French Revolution . I didnt feel the need to read the courseware( its outrageously expensive), going to class and taking notes was enough

Comment:

This class is a must-enroll if remotely interested in history. Buj manages to make a 3-hr lecture SPEED by, offering incredible insight, fluid rhetoric, and choice of material. He is very unique with his introspective/enlightened demeanor and does not rely on rigid lecturing. Midterms are amazingly fair, and focus solely on MEANINGFUL information.

Very interesting course. All tests were multiple choice but included a wide variety of information. If you attend every class and review the power point presentations before the tests, you will do well in this course.

Phenomenal professor... Even better friend. He called me a "stunning puzzle" once which I thought was strange because that's how I would have described him. He is a skilled educator. He is also connoisseur of beauty. It was a pleasure being with him in and out of the classroom.

Comment:

Dr. Buj is intelligent and very passionate. He is an effective speaker, and is often quite humorous. I loved his class, and he inspired my interest in the subject! His tests are difficult, because students are expected to memorize even the smallest of details from the lectures. Hint: Write everything down!

Comment:

He is one of the few profs who actually inspires students to want to learn for its own sake, not just to get a grade. He is very enthusiastic and intelligent. His tests can be hard but if you go to class and pay attention they are fair. Don't take his class if you want an easy credit. Take his class if you want to actually learn something.

Hard to keep up with but I learned a lot. He's passionate about the material, and very opinionated at times, but open to students' opinions, too.

Awesome prof. Sensitive to students issues and quite helpful. The semester I had him was right after some terrible personal issues, he was understanding & made sure I knew what I needed to do in class and made sure I understood everything we took. I may not have gotten an A, but I got a mark I deserved & have learnt a lot from him.

Dr Buj is amazingly helpful & definitely worth having! I didn't understand anything with philosophers and rhetoric until he explained it.... a must have prof if there is such thing!
