Professor that got me interested in history. Uses a lot of visual aides, has encylopedic knowledge, very clear and concise and passionate. Classes feel like watching a History Channel show. Good guy overall. Wish he was at my current school.

Comment:

Extremely knowledgeable about the subject, is willing to help if you ask. I found the tests frustrating and the questions obscure. A lot of reading is required for this class. Admirable participation in discussion boards, but outspokenly liberal and often comes across as demeaning when posting. Overall a good class, but you will work for your grade

His exams are basically given to you. You get a review sheet with all the key terms and potential essay questions. If you take good notes and are prepared, the class is interesting and you will do fine.

Have no clue how or what to study for his test. He just rambles the entire time and you have no idea the important points of the lecture! Don't recommend his class at all!!
