Comment:

He is super funny! I love how honest he is and how easy his class is. If you are a political science major I would defentily recomend taking his class. Sad thing is he's retiring in May, 2016. :( But if you have the chance go for it!

Comment:

If you need to take a government class, try your best to get him. He is very laid back, grades with a curve, and actually makes class interesting. If you attend class and do the required reading, this class is an easy A.

Comment:

Fantastic class! Tests and Exams are 100% from the textbook, which you must read on your own. The in-class lectures are informal, and designed to provide additional understanding of the topic without directly duplicating what the textbook says. This is like getting two classes for the price of one!

Comment:

He is one of the smartest people I have ever met. Knows so much information. He cracks jokes all the time and tells you how much he doesn't want to be there. His attitude makes me laugh. He works with the class to make tests easy. But go to class, he hates when you don't show. He will call you out about it. Super funny guy, I loved it, study hard

Lambert is good, and everyone should take him at least once. I am amazed he keeps his job the way he criticizes the administration, but it is interesting hear how dumb the school management is.

Comment:

I've had him three times. This professor is a master of the esoteric. His cocktail party knowledge is extraordinary. Problem is, he gets off topic in the drop of a hat and expects you to understand his mode of thought on his tests. I enjoy his classes, but he can by hard if his classes get derailed. Nevertheless, I've received an A in each of them

Comment:

He's pretty fun in class, as long as you don't completely zone out. Other than that, he's tenured, so expect a lot of random stories and off-color humor. Worth it!

Comment:

IT WAS A TRUE NIGHTMARE!!!! You get two exams and an essay! He's an a$$ because he has tenure, and he reminds you whenever he has the opportunity. He was not helpful at all!! Just made snide remarks. The stuff he lectures about in class has NOTHING at all to do with the exams!! DONT TAKE THIS CLASS SAVE URSELF AND UR GPA!!!

Comment:

This man is cool, but very sarcastic. You just have to take his sarcasm very lightly. He doesn't mean anything by it. Just don't ask stupid questions or he'll make you feel like an idiot! Read your book and do the online quizzes and you should get a B.

Comment:

Dr. Lambert is a true inspiration to anyone who walks into his classroom. He is very easygoing, and extremely sarcastic. Some people think he is intimidating, but he is by far one of the biggest teddy bears around. If you need help with anything, go to him. He is a personal inspiration for me wanting to become a professor. He's funny, witty, interesting, and an all around great person.

Easy as long as you do the online quizes and then print them off or get the study guide to go with the book. He takes the questions from the quizes and study guide and makes the test. He likes to hear himself talk.

Excellent teacher that teaches the student how to think critically. He does not bombard the students with busy work. He tells you what needs to be done and he expects the very best.

Comment:

I don't think he's that easy. He doesn't teach what's on his tests. I don't know where he gets the test questions from. However, he does curve tests grades about 20-25 points which helps out a lot. He likes it when people don't come to class, because he gives you a couple freebie test ?'s.
