Comment:

He is such a great teacher, and wants all of his students to succeed. He gives great notes, and the notes are used for the quizzes, which really made them great for studying. He loves what he teaches, and he is open to people adding input about the topic of the day. I loved his class, and it was such a fun class to take! I LOVE THIS CLASS!!!!!

Comment:

Perry Blatz is the best professor I have ever had for any topic. His class is simple lecture and EVERY bit of information on any test or quiz comes directly from the notes. He's clear as to his expectations and grades hard but is willing to accomodate. Take this man if you want someone who knows what they're talking about. Takes attendece!!

PERRY BLATZ IS SERIOUSLY THE GREATEST TEACHER/MAN ALIVE. Amazing teacher. Take his notes and study them and you will be fine. He is rather tough on papers and includes timelines on his tests, but his personality and friendliness is off the charts! He is super helpful and everyone LOVED his class. He is by far my favorite teacher of all time...

Comment:

Perry Blatz was one of the best teachers have ever had. 94% of his class is notes and the other is his four quizzes, mid term, and final. Go to class and just take notes and you'll get an A. I left Duquesne but if I could I would take Perry Blatz with me.

Comment:

Second time i had Perry Blatz and for the second time i'm pleased with his teaching. Is the smartest man I have ever met when it comes to history. An excellent teacher only don't buy the book if you pay attention and only vaguely know the history. TAKES ATTENDENCE but only 4 quizzes a midterm, paper, and a final.

Comment:

Perry Blatz is an excellent teacher and knowns exactly what he's talking about. If not interesting in history at all you may find his class boring but for the most part the class is an easy A. As long as you pay attention to him talk you'll have no problem on the papers, quizzes (only 4), and tests (just the midterm and final)

Kind of dull. I took him for my first History class and got a bad grade. The reason was that I couldn't pay attention. He was monotone and I could not get into the content.

Comment:

Perry Blatz is a good teacher but I believe that he loves to hear himself talk. His class is easy and the work is easy. The only thing bad is his papers. He tries to become an english teacher. He corrects information based on opinion. He is not understanding on or about grades. He is nice and knows EVERYTHING about History. He is a litle boring!!!

Comment:

I Love Perry Blatz! I think he is such an awesome guy! He is soo funny at times and I enjoyed the music he played for us. I write lyrics to songs on the board every day and he enjoys that. He likes Jimi Hendrix and music from the 60s. As long as you go to class and pay attention you will be fine. You don't really need to read the book.

Comment:

This is one of the best professors I have ever had...mmmkay? He is extremely well-informed and can answer almost any historical question....mmmkay? He has a great dry sense of humor and draws the most vague looking maps in existence...mmmkay? Great guy...but it's none of my business. Great professor...but that’s up for your interpretation.

Perry-Air is an amazing professor. Very well educated, very funny, and very respectful. Class is tough, but he isn't impossible. Shaping is my favorite class because of him. I want him next semester for US 2. One word to describe him: Kind. A+++++++++++++

Great teacher and a great person. If you come to class and take notes, the exams are almost too easy. He also grades fairly on the quasi-weekly writes and makes good useage of Blackboard.

Dr. Blatz isn't a terrible professor, but he's not the best either. Class can be very boring and his lectures are somewhat unclear and disorganized. Pretty nice guy, but I wouldn't take another class with him.
