Comment:

Very nice man, but tends to go off on tangents, his favorite being anything theological. So much so that you may wonder how you are in a world history course. Very unhelpful when it comes to questions, he often just replies with some convoluted response that only slightly touches upon the question. Only a few assignments, but the class is dull.

Comment:

Prof Page is a nice guy in general, I am sure, but the class is extremely boring. He will call on you and intimidate you, and lectures about religion and god the entire time. No other topics. There are 2-3 papers you write, and grading was somewhat tough in my opinion. I messaged him with questions three times, and never once got a response.

Comment:

Professor Page is a very nice guy, but being in his class made me feel like I was at church. He talks a lot about religion and most of the time the whole class didn't have a clue what he was lecturing us about. He is awful with communication. I emailed him several times and messaged him and he never once responded to my plead for help.

Comment:

Prof. Page is a brilliant guy, but from start to end I still have no idea where the history was. He spoke only of religion + thinking critically. Every class seemed to be the same lecture. He is a super nice guy and easy grader if you put effort in. No textbook, barely any homework and there are only 3 graded essays.

Professor Page is an awesome Professor if you pay attention and go to class! Homework is pretty easy, you just have to give it the time. You write 3 papers and if you have any questions you meet with him and he basically gives you the answers. He is all about you improving.He's an awesome professor if you put the time into his class.

Comment:

There area a lot of negative feedback here, but I must say this professor will challenge you, and he will also make it worth it. He doesn't just teach history, he also puts a strong emphasis on learning itself. I was challenged, he made me think critically on a lot of different topics, but I would take his class again. Easy grader, with effort.

Comment:

He doesn't follow standard curriculum, but he is very insightful and knows what he is talking about. Most of the time you are going to think he has no clue what he is talking about, but he does. His class is not necessarily easy but you will pass with flying colors if you do the readings and essays.

Comment:

He had some fresh blazers. He puts a very respectable effort in to the structure of the class as a whole. He is pretty arrogant, but the students who get so agitated by him are the kids who have yet to realize that they're paying to challenge and prepare themselves for responsibilities much harder than outlining a history essay.

Comment:

Prof. Page is terrible! Goes on rants about religion and how "man is a meaning seeking creature." and how technology is taking over and soon noone will be using papers! Never discusses history, same topic in every class is covered. He is mean and full of himself. class part. is 50% of grade=ridiculous! DROP THIS CLASS IF YOU GET HIM!

Comment:

Took a hybrid class with this guy. Second day of actually having the class everyone plops a stack of notes on their desk, and everyone copied from one girl. Nobody had any idea what he was talking about, except for when he told of his extremely boring life. He had a sister and a mother, in case you were wondering. He'll make sure you know that.

Comment:

He's pretty ridiculous, I don't think he's a bad person he's just kind of arrogant. He has this holier than thou attitude to teaching and he often strays into the subject of religion instead of teaching History. Maybe he's better when it's not a hybrid class, but I doubt it. Nobody in class likes him, I can't wait to escape his class.

An absolute blowhard. I had him for a hybrid course and the guy lectures a history subject as if it were a football game (excessive yelling, random outbursts)

Comment:

Never take a class from him. He turns a simple history class into a comparative religion class, philosophy/ ethics, and not a thing about history. The entire class is about his personal views and you have to agree with EVERYTHING he says. His "simple" papers - for freshmen - are grad student level in difficulty. He is a bad teacher!!!

This is the worst history teacher in the world. His class was the worst part of my day all semester. No use of a text book, talks about random nothing all class, then expects you to write essays on stupid topics.

Comment:

He is very specific and a pretty hard grader. He grades by like how much of the material he provides you with that you use in your essays and thats all he really wants you to use. He also didn't really get through the curriculum. He skipped a lot so we could finish on time so I am kind of lost in 102

Comment:

his class is really boring, actually fell asleep a few times. He doesn't exactly teach you facts and dates like other history teachers usualy do, he just lectures (very into it by the way) about mythology. wishes there were more facts rather then lectures. HOWEVER he truely cares about the success of his students and will go out of his way to help.

The man didn't even know the guidelines for writing a bibliography, and said mine was wrong because of it. Most pointless class I have ever taken. Stick with another teacher if you want to actually learn something
