Comment:

The class required a lot of work and reading every week. Definitely not an easy class to pass without doing any of the work. It was difficult to establish how the assignments needed to be sent in, but other than that...if you do the work you'll get a good grade.

Comment:

I'm taking his online class right now. Very good professor. He's well organized and easy to follow. He's very liberal minded and some might say that I'm the opposite. But he is pushes all the right buttons to get you thinking. It's easy to get a good grade but you have to actually read and follow the his guidelines.

Comment:

good teacher. the format was a little confusing at first but i got the hang of it after a few weeks. the discussions always stray off course; people do not do thorough research, yet get 50/50s.

Comment:

I don't know what people mean by there being a grade reduction at the end, but my grade maintained throughout the class. I did well, understood his outlines, and the discussions were very thought provoking -- all in an online class. There's extra credit, and some pretty interesting topics he raises in the forums. Very insightful.

Comment:

Great teacher. His tests are pretty simple, and his review sessions are the best!! Take him at night, even easier since the review takes place 10 minutes before the exam. He knows his stuff, and doesn't talk down to you. Wish they could all be like this.

Interesting guy... lectured sitting down, cracked jokes constantly. Multiple choice tests all the time, that was nice. Not a hard class, and definitely good for a laugh.

Comment:

Very weird class, difficult to understand where he's going lead you off to. His lectures don't even corrolate with the study guide and test, his grading scale sucks. Also a lot of people in the class were complaining of how he teaches. Would not recommend

Comment:

Took Glenn 15 yrs ago; perhaps my info is a bit dated. I thought he was fantastic and brilliant. But I'm writing to contradict the stupidity (and misspellings) of the other person. It's "ethnicity." And the guy was a bit cynical and acerbic. Gro
