Comment:
Milkis is the man. When I was a first year, he invited me to his office hours without skipping a beat, just to talk to him about what I was interested in. Take a class with him if you get the chance, he's really passionate about the presidency and American politics.

This class one was of my favorite at UVA! Milkis is a great professor. He is passionate about the presidency and really wants his students to learn. There were a lot of readings but most of them were interesting and there's not much other work in the class. If you work hard, it can reshape your perspective of presidential influence in history.

HARD grader. A- is the best grade he gives. Great lecturer. Very interesting. Very busy, however, now that he is Chair he doesn't have a lot of time. Is nice to students but doesn't have a lot of free time. You will get a lot out of the class but the grading might be tough for some to take. You will have to work hard.

Comment:
hard to get into this class for a reason. Great TA's. He does not give out A's unless you earn it. Be creative in your papers and link it to the bigger picture. He doesn't give Reagan the love he deserves, but he is fair. A different perspective on the presidency. Jefferson would be proud.

Professor Milkis is perhaps one of the most enthusiastic additions to the UVA Politics Department. It is rare to find someone with so much passion for subject matter and concern for students. Readings can be numerous, but well worth it.
