Comment:

Dont take any philosophy class at WSU. Narcissism radiates the philosophy building. Stay away from this guy especially. The book doesnt explain all the symbols and when asking him about it, he just says "read the book" and brushes you off. when people probe his statements his response is "read the book" like it satisfies the misunderstanding.

Comment:

Class Seemed ok at first, was arrogant though, literally bragged about he was doctor on hw problems. Today he told everyone if they got a low C, D or f on test they are going to fail the call. He didnt say anything about help just that you would fail.

He seemed nice and helpful at first but as i continued the class he became overly arrogant and rude. When i called to ask for help he told me to read the book. I ended up dropping his class.

Comment:

I liked him at first, but he got to be very arrogant and rude. His class started with at least 50 people, and at midterm it was down to 6. I dropped when I found out my midterm grade was a D! (Even though I studied at least an hour a day, besides homework!)

Comment:

I've had Russell for two classes now and if he was harsh as a teacher before, it does not show at all now. He is extremely open to speaking with students outside of class and he is an excellent resource and sounding board for homework, papers and other projects. He is knowledgeable, entertaining and believes in his students' abilities.

Comment:

I have to hand it to him. This guy is a genius. I never want to go up against him in an argument. However he is arrogant and harsh and keeping up with the material he covers is very time consuming. You will learn a lot but he will make you work for your grade for sure.

Comment:

PHIL 385 is a class that represents a transfer of money from engineering students to a department that otherwise feeds on the welfare state. Russell is merely the insult that comes with the injury.

Comment:

exams are VERY hard. it's multiple choice but there's like 6,7 choices; all of which are so close. it's very confusing. gives quizzes before lectures, so you'll hardly understand a dang thing. IF YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE IT YET, DON'T TAKE IT WITH HIM. wait. wait until someone else teaches!!

Comment:

His class is very difficult. He tries to make it as pleasurable as possible given the material and its dryness. He does come across arrogant but if you stick through his class it gets way better. Its as though that's a weed out process.

The man doesn't deserve to be a professor, he's a pompous person. He need to get a reality check because he's full of himself.

He talks like he is the supreme expert on every subject. This man is rude and full of himself. If you look up in the dictionary for "a good teacher" or "teacher" his picture would not be there. No one deserves to go thru his torture s

Comment:

He is ARROGANT(i.e. POMPOUS) and does not deserve to be called a teacher. He reminds me of a cry baby. The class is based on opinion and nothing else. I learned nothing. The class was a complete waste of time and money. He is a jerk!!!!!!!!!
