Comment:
Professor Hittinger is knowledgeable and can explain things very well. His tests can be difficult even if you study a lot because some of his questions are ambiguous and worth 5 points each, so confident test takers will perform best. An average amount of reading is required for this class.

I really enjoyed this class and the grade that you receive really does reflect how much effort you put into the class. If you write down everything that he writes down on the board (which isn't very much), show up to class often, and do research about each philosopher we discuss in class you'll pass with flying colors. I loved this class.

Comment:
Terrible, do not take Great Conversation I and probably anything else he teaches! No powerpoints or notes, must have the exact editions of every book for page number reference so good luck saving money, he's dry and boring, and I didn't care for the subject matter either. FINAL GRADE IS DETERMINED BY THREE TESTS AND NOTHING ELSE WHO DOES THAT?

Class was divided up between lectures and student-led discussion. Grade based on 4 papers and class participation. He wants to see you succeed and genuinely cares. If you ask for help, he will help you.

Comment:
He's organized and there no surprises as he sticks to the schedule. Also he responds to his e-mails promptly. The work is reasonable and when he gives lectures they can sometimes be a little dry but there is always something interesting as he is a very intelligent man. Great and loveable professor and I would highly recommend him.

Comment:
I took his course back in Fall 1997. I was a law student and received law school credit for his class on Law and Religion. It was an outstanding course, and I really enjoyed it. It was graduate school caliber. He was an outstanding teacher, very knowledgeable, and very likeable.

Comment:
As an engineering major, I had no trouble in his class. He knows a great deal about what he teaches. His lectures were interesting and were right on topic with his tests and final paper. It was easy to miss a few classes and still be on track. I would encourage anyone to take a class with him if possible.

Comment:
If you don't take a course with him, you've lost out. This man is as great a scholar as any at TU-his name appears in every work of the literature. However, he's also an amazing teacher, willing to help you with anything, even things not quite related to the class. He made my time at Tulsa worthwhile, in all honesty.

Comment:
His class was listed as a discussion, but was primarily unstructured lecture with occasional comments from students. Dr. Hittinger is very knowledgeable, but also very dry, and it was often difficult to find the importance or relevance of what he lectured about, seeming more like a jumble of interesting tidbits than a coherent lecture.

World class natural law scholar. Don't enroll if you don't want to work but if you are interested it is worth the effort. Ivy league quality instruction at a fourth tier school. Just be prepared to READ, READ, READ.

Just finished a natural law course with Prof. Hittinger. Difficult material and new to me, so it is tough to rate him. He knows the stuff to be sure as he is one of the foremost thinkers on this topic. Not a class to take if you don't want to read.
