He cared about his students. I could not afford a book. He made contact with an organization on campus who gave me a grant to purchase my books.

unfortunatly he has retired. he was one of the few profs who really cared about his students, and would do anything for them. his off topic stories get pretty crazy sometimes but they are always great and funny.

Comment:

I created an account just so I could warn people about professor Dover. DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR. If there's anyway you can get out, do it now. He's a HORRIBLE teacher, doesn't hand out reviews, and doesn't tell you what will be on the test.You can never understand anything he says, and he never knows the answer to anything.But he'll make one up.

He only teaches his opinions and you can't understand him well because all he does is mumble. He also does not hand out study guides anymore...

Comment:

Terrible teacher while I had him. The only thing that saved me was the book and his study guides. And... aparently he doesn't give out study guides anymore. So, I wouldn't take him again if I had to.

Comment:

This professor is the worst professor ever. You will not learn a thing, he doesnt explain anything. He talks only about his opinion on politics. His reviews are illiterate and his tests are ridiculous and dont make sense. He doesnt take attendance, but if you dont go he will hate you. so basically good luck and prepare for a loooong semester.

Comment:

Sit in the first row because he talks so quietly if you sit past the fourth row your screwed. He mumbles and his reviews for the test do not grammatically make sense. He has had to add a 20+ curve on everybodys tests simply because he does not teach the material and his review only coveres 1/4 of the actual test.

Very easy class. He doesn't take attendance and doesn't know when you miss or care. He gives a review with all the questions on them for all the exams.

Comment:

Come to class, highlight out of the book. He uses an outline the entire time. He is easy to get sidetracked so if you want to cover material, don't talk. Ask Questions, he's fun! Great Class. I learned a lot. Tests are easy and he likes you if u ask questions.

Excellent teacher. Passionate. Probably the closes thing you will ever get to a REAL college style class while attending MIdwestern State. Btw, get OUT of Wichita Falls. You do not know what you are missing.

Cool guy, really. I like how he teaches a government class and doesn't take a specific standpoint on a person, but on the policies the person makes.

His intro class was great. He wasn't afraid to call it like he saw it and that made it interesting. He also welcomed arguement and didn't act like his opinion was the only right one.
