Comment:

I see nothing has changed with him. I took his class back in 2011. For a 3 credit class, I spent almost 2 hours a day on his work, until halfway through the semester. I was taking 12 credits at the time. His class felt like a full 12 credits alone. I later found out, 9 people in my class dropped. Almost half the class. Terrible, terrible professor.

Comment:

He is tough but fair, he is old fashioned and you will work. I had a baby in the middle of the semester and he omitted all work from the week for me and didn't penalize my grade. He is wonderful, print all of his material out from online and keep it in a folder and his testing will be much easier to prepare for. READ WHAT HE PRESENTS!

Comment:

Very opinion based. Must meet his opinion for him to agree with you. Childish professor. Too many quizs and test and theyre weak questions. Very hard to answer. Very little actuall work. Not much effort from the prof, most of his teaching is done from his own knowledge not from the course materials. Not worth purchasing the book as it wont help.

Comment:

Lots of quizzes, two per week even on exam weeks. He isnt clear on instructions. You have to read his emails, notes, links, and watch videos to pass the class (with no lectures to help). You also have to do a political engagement project that he isnt specific about. This should not be a level 100 class or online. I warn you do not take his class.

Comment:

He is an awful instructor who I believe enjoys making it difficult to pass the class. His grading is inconsistent and harsh. He is sarcastic and thinks that his opinion is the correct one so if you dont share the same one beware. I do not recommend him.

Comment:

Terrible, would not recommend taking a class instructed by this professor! He gives a lot of tests and homework and for the tests and quizzes he doesnt give you a enough time; the information on the quizzes doesnt match what the chapters where about! Ended up dropping this class because I knew there wasnt a chance of getting a passing grade!

Comment:

Before I took this class, the reviews on this site scared me really badly. However, after taking this class, I realized that he was not the issue at all. I emailed him a few times, and he was always so kind. However, his class was kind of difficult. Not a class where all the answers are on Quizlet.

Comment:

I don't recommend anyone to take this professor. He is very harder grader for only being a 3 credit class. Tests and quizzes are hard and not given enough time. He will have more than two quizzes due a week and doesn't have clear instructions on the final exam.

Awful, just awful. Heartless man, thinks he is funny, has no remorse for computer glitches. I spend countless hours studying each week, to only have a C. Would not recommend...

Comment:

Do not take this class. The amount of information that he expects you to know for each quiz is ridiculous. His quizzes have questions over the least important points of the entire chapter. He is very rude and he does not have good teaching ettiquite! This is especially bad since it is a politics class where there are many different opinions.

Comment:

He is very enthusiastic about what he teaches. You can tell he really loves it! Yes, at times he was a little TOO crazy, but it made class funny. You have quizzes every week, but it's just on the notes the day before. You have to work hard to get a good grade. I got a 98% because I read and did the Civic Engagement proj. Get ready to put in work!:)

He's really jumpy, literally. he cant stay in one place. His lectures are interesting, but he has quizzes every week and they really bring your grade down, even if you study. He grades tough.

Comment:

He is kind of crazy, but he isn't that bad. He definitely makes you work for a good grade. Be ready to go to every class and take notes. You'll have quizzes every week and you will work in an assigned group every day of class.

Comment:

He lacks common courtesy in his communication skills and treats students like nuisances rather than individuals. I found him flaky and hard to follow. Tests were often based on his written opinion rather than textbook. I was warned to drop his class at semester start and I regretted not doing so.

Comment:

I took POL 103 Online with Mr. Boudrot. I thoroughly enjoyed this class. I did it in the spring so there was a lot of work but it was very easily outlined. Tests were easy if you printed his notes. He communicates well and is always available for questions. I don't care for Political Science and I got a 4.0 in this class.

Horrible organization. Unclear guidelines on major assignment. Fairly accessible, but clearly not ready for online course teaching.

Provided extra credit opportunities and was good about replying to emails quickly. Notes provided sometimes wouldn't open, tough grader with timed test, and tons of reading. One of the harder classes I have taken at Delta, but can be passed if you love reading. Two logins per week were also required or you would be dropped.

Comment:

He makes you work for your grade. I did the online class, he started off a total jerk but toward the end of semester he got way better, was actually kind of cool. He is a very tough grader. Tests are only 20 minutes long. He expects you to read a lot and study hard! Wouldn't take him again though! Hardest class so far!
