Chased Prof. W. to this page though my experience with him, a quarter-century ago, was at Lafayette. Knowledge, passion, humanity, fun. There are too few like him. Please hang in there and keep teaching until my daughters are college age!

I have him for International Relations now. A very hard grader when it comes to papers, and wants everythind done his way, with his sources. Exams take forever to study for and you study for six hours just to recieve an 86!!!!!! COME ON

have had him for 3 classes now, mad hard but the material is great and he is incredibly entertaining and brilliant. He is sort of mean in person and even outright in class to some people. All in all he is one of my favorite professors at WNEC but some of the amounts of reading he assigns is rediculous..amounts that are just incomprehensible

Comment:

Pretty clear. Doesn't strictly teach from the textbook, which is better than just reiterating. Very steady workload, which can be overbearing when an exam comes around, but ultimately reasonable.

Comment:

Woz is a really smart guy but sometimes gets off track in what he is saying. He has A LOT of information floating around in his head and he just wants everyone to know it. LOTS of information to know for the midterm and final... not many chances to get good grades: 2 papers, 2 tests nothing else. Go to class and he likes you.

Comment:

The WOZ is an interesting guy. He usually rocks a ponytail and a smile, but he does strike me as slightly off-kilter. He is of the opinion that the world is about to collapse into anarchy. But he's a nice guy, a tough grader, and you'll get a good experience if you take his class. Just be tolerant of eccentrics... he's one.

Comment:

Lecture's all class. Sometimes isn't clear about everything. Very hard grader. Expect a B with alot of work an effort. Expect an A for an overachiever. I learned alot, but many times it was information overload. The dude needs to relax sometimes. And I dont get why he restricts you to use ONLY the books he assigns. Seems biased in a way.

had him for global issues. very paranoid and sarcastic. Class was very interesting, he loves participation in discussions. Overall he's a great teacher, but very hard. Test questions aren't bad at all, directly from notes and lectures, no surprises.

LOVED this prof!!! Really interesting, makes you think. If you're not in college to work hard and reads lots of different perspectives, why are you here? Every class is engaging and provocative.

Comment:

Had him for 3 different classes. I was a Business major who enjoyed my electives to be history. He is very hard. I worked harder in his classes than any other class at WNEC. I enjoyed them though just a lot of work because he is demanding. His lectures do ramble though and you can easily lose yourself if not careful.

Took him for a honors course on russian civilizaions and cultures. Very interesting guy, likes to talk alot in class, and the curriculum was very strange. He is a easy going guy for the most part, but is very strict on grammer for papers, but if you take the time to meet with him he will help you

He can be a tough teacher with picking on you in class, however he's a fairly easy grader on tough assignments.
