Comment:

I completely agree with previous comments. Interesting class, but only consists of lectures. Take notes and read the book before tests. Tests consist of multiple choice and true/false. Often had irrelevent questions on exams, but if you study the things he says to and then things from the book you shouldn't earn anything less than a C.

Comment:

Positives: Def. knows his stuff, can be very funny at times. The Negatives: He's arrogant, can be rude, and loves going to tangents about how much he hates religion. Would I take another class with him? Eh...maybe, probably not tho.

This guy knows the stuff his teaching about, he can teach with no text book and still nail the stuff! He is very interesting and arrogant though! If you choose to take his class don't pay attention to his ego but the material he's teaching about and you will do fine!

Comment:

Straight shooter, tells you what he expects, so just do it. 5 tests (no final)...you have to draw 3 maps, but they are very easy. Show up to class and take notes and you will be fine...tests come from the notes. Great Prof if you put energy forth.

Comment:

Everyone that didn't do good in his class thought that because it's a 100 level course it should be easy. It was easier if you just paid attention and actually read his book. He's a great professor that wants to give students the right to learn if they paid for it. He won't tolerate sleeping, talking, or anything else that's distracting.

Comment:

Great class! He is picky about what he wants on homework and how he wants it done, but he is always available to go over your assignments with you. I reviewed every homework assignement with him and got 100% on them all. Tests are hard, but he adjusts the grades and more weight is put on the homework. Lots of homework assignments and 3 tests

Comment:

Mistake. Expects everything to be perfectly presentable. Not very clear as to his expectations, and holds high standards for tests in terms of memorizing all info.As is his area of expertise, expect to be taught by someone who forgets that the students are not knowledgeable in the subject. There are better profs, so take only if most necessary.

Comment:

An okay guy. Be sure to show up on time, don't fall asleep, or be doing something other than paying attention or you will be marked absent. Homework is only given once in a while. Tests are multiple choice, but are fairly challenging so be prepared to do some studying.

Be on time for his class!!!!! he loves quickly throught the material, but stops if you ask questions. was an intereting class, and he was helpful during office hours if you didn't understand. you take 5 tests and do one current event, and he offers xtra credit, so many opportunities to do well in his class

Thompson is awesome. He knows his subject well and is always eager to help if you go to his office hours. His tests are easy if you study a bit and homework is rare. He has an amazing sense of humor.
