Mark is the most helpful and kindhearted professor I've had at Stanford. We will miss him when he leaves to Bhutan for good.

honest and kind hearted. I think people who are scared or feel disassociated with him are probably only taking classes as a means to an end. the most helpful teacher I had at Stanford in my whole career.

He's arrogant and full of himself. He's a great research prof, but in terms of teaching, he's terrible.

Generally he's very helpful, but seems to be getting a little tired and/or bored at this point. Still love him though, he's a hottie!

Comment:
Mark has decades of experience but seems weary by now. In section when he asked qns, he usually had an answer in mind and would shoot us down until someone got the right answer. Most people were too intimidated to talk in section. At one-on-one meetings he was surprisingly kindly and grandfatherly. Just be respectful and he'll be good to you.

Mark is the best. He is seriously the most knowledgable person I've ever met, he's had so much life experience, it's amazing. I started the "I'm a Marksist" facebook group, check it out for Mark quotes, pictures and stories.

Comment:
His home was always a home for his students. Underneath that unapproachable big and seemingly impatient man is a kind hearted and noble gentleman who is selflessly dedicated to his profession. He has saved a lot of troubled souls, and taught not only history, philosophy, art, psychology, sociology..., but more importantly lessons on life.

Comment:
He's full of himself. definitely prefers male students, over female students. I'm a guy and I def felt the favoritism. His breathing always bugged the hek out of me... That said, he knows the material very well--he should, hes been teaching SLE for 20+ yrs! and there are always worse section leaders...

THE BEST SLE section leader by far. I've never learned so many alternate perspectives to what I believed were 'set in stone' historical/philosophical stances.

oh, what a ****! Seems to enjoy the sound of his own voice. Liked, I think, more for his radical opinions than the quality of his teaching.

I knew Mark over 25 years ago, and from the comments above, it sounds like he hasn't changed, Sycophantic male students: exactly!

Agree he is highly intelligent but seems to prefer farming the hands-on teaching off to others.
