Comment:

His class solidified my decision to do PR. He is easy, but will definitely know whether you know the material or not. Intro is lecture style. Campaigns and Senior Sem are discussions. His Campaigns class is extremely useful. Take him.

Comment:

I like him as a person but not as a professor. His classes are so boring and he has high expectations of how to complete all the assignments he gives when he barely teaches anything. had a midterm, 4 papers 6-8 pages, 2 papers 10-15 pages. good luck.

Comment:

Teacher is very nice but the amount of course work is insane. There should be focus on one of each topic learned and not tons of work piled on student so it makes it hard to put forth best work.

okay professor, really boring. basically you just have to teach everything to yourself and you'll be fine but the midterm and final are a lot of memorization.

Pretty easy class but he's very boring and really doesn't know what he's talking about. Always speaks in vague generalitities and isn't very clear about what he expects on the thesis. How he earned a doctorate is beyond me
