He made the class interesting because of his knowledge of details and side stories about the topic. Easy grader, don't buy the books.

Comment:

Great subject and he is clearly an expert on it. You will learn a lot. But he has completely lost it now and could care less about his students. Don't even bother talking to him outside the class room.

Comment:

In my top 2 favorite professors of all time! As long as you actually keep up with the class/course work (which really turns out to be interesting) you'll do fine. everything flows together so the final isn't a surprise. He is funny, gives extra credit, explains well and is extremely smart and hilarious! take any class you can with him! its worth it

Great professor, funny and knowledgeable. Essay based midterm and 100 multiple-choice cumulative final exam. Go to class, take good notes and you should be fine. We had some great discussions in class.

Funny guy who really makes his class into a discussion,better then any other teacher I've seen who attempt it but fail. He gets everyone talking, knows his stuff, and really makes you think. Class fills up quick, but well worth it if you can get in.

Probably the best teacher i've ever had. you can tell he really enjoys his teaching and has a real interest in his students' learning. i learned so much and he made it very interesting. there is almost zero day to day assignments, but you have to go to class. definately take a class with him.
