I took many classes from Dr. Mussard. He was very articulate, conveyed the material for each lesson well and fielded questions from the class with poise as well as with humor.

Absolutely terrible. I can't believe anyone would let this guy teach. He was by far the worst professor I have ever had. Did not help students with answers to their questions.

Comment:
The worst teacher I ever had. Dr. Mussard should keep to writing articles and books. I would go into more detail but read the other comments and you should get a grasp of his horrible teaching. The guy is a **** to his students as well, and doesn't care about your opinion, thinks he is always right.. Doesn't directly answer questions either.

Incomprehensible doesn't begin to describe him. He talks about stuff that we have not covered and that is unrelated to the material assigned.

Comment:
The most liberal, opinionated, stuttering professor I have ever had in my college experience. His scribbling on the chalkboard is illegible at best. The class is absolutely pointless and he gives out pages and pages of jibberish as study guides for the test and assignments.

Comment:
Very leftist, liberal, atheist. He is one weird dude! Way out there! Pay attention to HIS Philosophy, because that is usually what he tests on. He thinks that HIS views are more important than any others.

Comment:
The guy is smart and is extremely knowledgable in his area, however, his lectures are hard to follow and doesn't really answer your questions directly. He does give out an outline which is a life saver. Tests are easier than I expected, but studying is essential and you have to do the readings.

HORRIBLE!!! He is not helpful at well with the term paper or tests or anything. Don't even attempt to ask for help because you will just get frustrated with his idiocy!

Interesting to listen to, but VERY weird! Pushes atheism & leftist philosophies to the extreme. If you don't agree with his "take" on philosophy, your grade will reflect it!

This guy gets a little to excited when teaching but I think he is an okay teacher, Ya, there is a lot of material and his tests are a little challenging, but other than that it was not that bad of a class.

I have not stayed awake an enitre day in his class yet. He is energetic, but just doesn't interact with the students at all. If not for the attendance policy, I would never come.

Comment:
Professor Mussard is a very energetic teacher who definitely loves his subject. That said, the material is pretty hard for a core class (in fact, the toughest), and the subject matter is incredibly boring and arbitary. The main thing that needs to be said is that he doesn't believe in God, but he has no disrespect for those that do. As a christian, I really appreciated that. -matt m

People shouldn't be so hard on this guy. If you don't want to take a challenging course, don't sign up for any of his classes.

He is crazy he will just get all excited about the material and jumbles the words together, you have no clue what he is saying and is a difficult man. He sweats alot and sometimes seems nervous if someone gets close or tries to ask a question. Won't give A's!
