Comment:

Sometimes strays from the central course focus. But I took class long ago, and so don't recollect too many lecture details. I only remember that I liked the class a lot and particularly remember laughing a lot in the movie theater that doubled as a lecture hall

Comment:

One of the best professors I've had in over six years of college courses. He was an enthusiastic lecturer and extremely knowledgeable about the material. He wanted the students involved, informed, and interested about the world and history. The breakdown was fair and he encouraged understanding, not memorization. I wish he were still teaching.

Comment:

i dont know much about the professor because i hardly ever went to lecture. But when i did go, his lecture was very hard to follow. my suggestion to you is to really get to know your TA. They will help guide you through the course. Also, make sure u do your readings and try to stay on top of things.

Comment:

This class had ALOT of reading but he always gave study guides that went along with the reading so you know what to take out from the material. Lectures DO NOT clarify readings, your on your own. Exams and paper was pretty easy, he curves.

He is great professor, but veers off topic. But he is soooo hot that it doesn't matter - I just like to look at him. If he wasn't married I would be all over him!!! Mmmmmm.

his lectures are always off topic, heavy load of readings and the study guides were not that helpful. I thought that the exams were really confusing. but if your a posc major its not hard.

This class is so easy. People who complain about him are sorry business majors. If you know anything about politics and current events, this class will be cake. If you don't, you're SOL.

Very entertaining guy. NOTE that he ALWAYS veers off topic. I went to every lecture, but though lectures were fun, they were not helpful. Study on your own. Read books carefully. Go to office hours to ask questions.

Comment:

Great professor. Even though lectures seemed to get off topic, we still ended up relating it to the original topic. He gave us an extra option for the final because the way poli sci is set up, some students had 3 finals the same day.

One of my favorite poly sci professors. Very smart guy. His midterm is easy, as long as you go to class. But he makes class fun, since he mostly talks about anything you want to talk about.

This guy is smart, tests aren't too tricky if you read your material...but there's a lot of stuff so it's kinda hard. He doesn't lecture too much. he talks about life and questions a lot.
