Comment:

Nice guy, dull lectures. Easy class that taught me nothing about other cultures or diversity. All you need to do is base you test answers on the reading, or on stereotypes, if you need to guess on a question.

I really don't see any reason in my life why I would ever need to know the percentage of women that were in the workforce in Argentina in 1962, but it was on the exam. Pointless class, hardcore teacher, bad combination.

Great Professor. If you show up to class and pay somewhat attention you can get a good grade. I showed up and slepted most the time and I got an A.

Comment:

good guy, but really dull. Besides that fact that I could care less about the birth rate in each African country, it was on the test. No matter how much you study you'll never be ready to answer a good percentage of the exam questions because they're so random and kinda useless info. If possible get somebody else.

This guy is a really bad teacher. Avoid if possible. Not to hard to get a good grade but not worth the annoyance.

Comment:

Brad is a really cool and funny guy, but his notes are very random and have no order whatsoever, so that makes the class hard. If you dont do the readings like i didnt do, then your in trouble. Finally his exams were really hard for me, but if you do the readings im sure it would have been easier. If you cant get seagul (misspelled?) get brad.

Class is extremely boring. Exams extremely difficult. Many random facts on tests that I doubt he would know if you asked him a week later. Take Bill Gale He is much easier.

Yes,his class is more difficult than the other UN1002 classes,but if you pay attention in class you will do well.He's a great teacher and his UN1002 class is probably the only one that you will actually learn something.He's also really nice and interesting and will help you if you any problems.

Comment:

Tests and work are very easy, class is easy. But Brad isn't the best teacher. If things don't go his way, such as the class votes to move a test back, he gets very moody. He also likes to randomly take shots at people, I don't recommend ever trying to leave early (unless you like verbal abuse)

I hate World Cultures, still do...but this professor makes it as interesting as I think would be possible. I am surprised that I am getting an A in the class and I would attribute it to him

I don't know what everyone is ****ing about. I slept through every class, woke up for a few stories, went back to sleep and still pulled off a B. My foreign affairs sucked, still do but the class wasn't that bad.
