Comment:

He's a very intelligent professor with obvious social and political beliefs. He won't stomp on yours if they're different, though. Through lecture, class interaction, readings, and assignments, I learned a lot. This is the only class I've EVER taken that was fully engaging 3 hours/day 5 days/week. Never a dull moment.

Comment:

To keep up you need to read most of what he sends, and he's a spam machine. He tries to engage people in conversation, encourage opinion, and question. His political views are quite obvious, but he doesn't stomp on yours as long as you have something to back yourself up. A lot of fun, the grading is a bit obtuse.

Comment:

He's very liberal and wastes no time trying to hide that fact. He likes to hear himself talk, but he is genuinely interested in student discussion, questions, and learning. I would recommend Breyman, but not if you want an "easy" professor. He has a keen sense of grading.
