Comment:

He's a nice guy that loves to talk, but the class itself is pretty easy. Attendance is not necessarily mandatory, but he gives extra credit if you're in class often. He tends to get off topic a lot, but some days he tries his best to get through the material. However, he'll sometime throw questions on the exams from material we haven't learned yet

Comment:

First and foremost, he mumbles when he speaks. The whole room will be quiet but he insists on mumbling. Hes also called students out for very petty things, like not hearing their name called when he mumbled it. Hes called people stupid and talked down to them. He gets easily frustrated. Also when he makes jokes, they really arent that funny.

Professor Agbango is a funny guy just don't make him mad. Be prepared to take a lot of notes. Grade is based on 3 "quizes" a midterm and a final, however he does give extra credit. Go to class and pay attention and it's an easy grade. Says you need the book and need to read it, I bought the book and used it once.

I have not used the book yet and it's the end of October. There's group work that doesn't do anything to help us or teach us about the curriculum. I can't understand most of what he's saying. I don't recommend this prof.

Comment:

Dr. Agbango is the man, he really cares a lot about his students and expects the absolute best from us. He sometimes get frustrated when students do not give their best work. If you pay attention in class, participate and actually show up to every class, any class with Agbango should be a breeze. You will also learn that he loves Chinese food.

Comment:

There may be a few questions of a quiz/test that is actually in the textbook. Otherwise he throws a bunch of random questions that he didn't talk about because he assumes you know it already. Hes's been called out on it several times. DO NOT TAKE HIM.

Agbango is an excellent professor, but you will have to show up and work for your grade. I've had two classes with him, and can confirm his consistency - as long as you go as in-depth as possible on his assignments, you'll do fine.

Comment:

Was a very generous professor whenever it came to giving out extra credit and making sure you would pass. If you come to class everyday, he does everything he can to give you the grade you deserve. Also, must pay attention in his lectures and really study the notes. He gives very clear, specific study guides.

Comment:

Dr Agbango is a very funny man at first and very charming but he has done many things to upset me. He called me out in front of the whole class and embarrassed me for something that was out of my control. He also calls students stupid/other bad names along those lines.. Also, very unclear grading material. DO NOT TAKE HIM... Thank me later.

Comment:

Dr. Agbango didn't cover much of what was in the text book, I wish he had because the book actually discussed elements of political science whereas he used abstract real world examples in class. He would get extremely irritated when students didn't understand his concepts and called them dunces, threw chalk, talked down to them. Not worth it.

Not very good. Tries to act like some sort of a foreign 'ambassador' which causes students to just roll their eyes. Not regarded very well within the department.

Comment:

Mixed emotions about the class. Received an A, but I'm not sure if it was because I studied or just knew a lot prior to the class. Random questions will definitely show up on the exams and. Doesn't require a lot of outside work, but expect to be frustrated at times. Two quizzes, a midterm, and a final make up the grades. Too difficult for a 101.

Comment:

I thought I'd like it but he's really hard to understand with his accent. He expects you to know a lot. I wouldn't take it, unless you are a poli sci major. I am a student who actually attends every day and do well in every other class. His tests include questions he doesn't talk about. Just not worth a gen ed.

He puts stuff on the test you dont go over in class.He expects you to read about everything and somehow know everything about the topic. He's closed minded, unintelligent, and yelled at me for questioning what he put on the test.

Agbango is the best! He gives extra credit opportunities and as long as you put in the work you will get an A. Lots of note taking but fairly easy to study for test from.

I Have taken four classes with Dr. Agbango. He expects a lot from his students. If you give him the work he wants then you will definitely take a lot out of his classes. Extremely knowledgeable and a great guy. Definitely recommend this prof!
