Comment:
Class is lecture based as he goes through outlines of chapters and you take notes. Very nice guy from a small African country so he has an accent. The whole class is 4 written assignments from pages in his book which (easy and easy to get extra credit on) and then 3 tests and quizzes and that's all. Just show up and pay attention, easy A.

Great professor, tests were extremely easy. He usually tells you exactly what will be on it. Big part of grade was an easy presentation. Final was optional if you liked your grade.

The worst teacher EVER. You can't ask him to explain why he took off points here or if you have a surgery with a doctor note you'll be absence there is no makeup for anything. USELESS teacher I'd rather to take calc 3 as elective than this course with him

Easy Easy class. Multiple choice tests over the bold words in the text or main lecture topics. If you show up and read the vocabulary you will get A's. Lectures are boring though, with an occasional brief piece of humor.

Comment:
Dr. Issac, is a fair and descent person. He is very dedicated to his students and the learning experience he offers them. Dr. Issac himself agrees that he is overall conservative. If your looking for a class to take, get the credit, learn something useful, and not have to invest a lot of time (if any) then his Pol Sci class is for you.

Comment:
Horrible teacher. Totally politically biased... teaches opinion as fact. Judges student's work based on their own opinions. A mild-tempered and decent individual, but a horrible teacher. Bringing so much bias to a politics course is not appropriate.

Comment:
If you listened to him at all, you'll know he's a conservative, not liberal. Easy class if you do the work. If you're not a communist and like to keep up to date with politics and current events, you'll enjoy his class. I've taken classes just because he teaches them.

Comment:
Dr. Isaac has clearly liberal views, but doesn't try to lord it over the class, and he gives people with opposing viewpoints ample time to debate things in class. He has a very thick accent, and you'll have to pay attention, but he's very nice and will repeat himself if necessary. Very helpful also.

Great professor! I'm astounded that we have such a good political science professor here at UMR. He's easy, fun, and interesting. Even if you disagree with him, you'll attend class just to argue!

A very funny guy...he tries to crack jokes, knowing they aren't funny, but he's real cool. If you can get over his Eritrean accent, then you're fine. He assigns lots of essays, but as long as you finish them, you'll get good grades. **dont miss class!

Comment:
He definitely has a Democrat bias but I enjoyed his class anyway. He cares deeply about politics. Tries to give a well rounded approach, from current affairs, to book reading, to discussing opposing viewpoints. Can be harsh in e-mail communication.
