Gary is the bomb. Speak up in his class and he will love you. Ask for feedback and you'll get it. He recognizes you as you improve and is so supportive. He wrote me a glowing recommendation letter that helped me get my first post university job with government. Can't say enough good things about him!

This is one of the best classes I've ever taken. Gary is clear about his grading, and very fair. His exams are really fair too. He mixes different assignments, and is really practical about his expectations. Most importantly, his lectures are really clear, easy to follow, and engaging. Textbook use is almost non-existant.

Very clear teaching style, helpful in office hours, and the exams are incredibly straightforward. But participation is a big part of your final grade, so make sure you ask questions in class (just showing up isn't enough)!

Comment:
Extremely boring and dry pretty much sums up Gary's classes. He is a nice guy, but his classes are terrible. His style of teaching or lack there of reminds me of high school. Gary is proof that college profs can't teach, they just relay information.

POLS 100, 311, 314. His lectures are well-organized and easy to follow (as long as you can write quickly), and he knows the material very well. Tests are challenging but fair.

I was pretty jaded about the whole social arts thing, but I took this class to learn something. And I sure did. Wilson is very polished and very prepared, yet lectures to us as if we were all colleagues. I'm not quite done the course yet, but I already want to give this guy props and kudos for being a swell prof.

An A+ professor. Extremely interesting course and you will learn a lot of relevant information in this class. Gary is very helpful outside of class and is a fair and prompt marker. I look forward to taking more or his courses.

Gary is a hard marker, but an interesting and engaging teacher. He knows what he is talking about, and he is quick to help if ever you need him. I would recommend Gary, but beware that you will have to work. Gary's a really easy going and nice prof, and does his best to make the lectures engaging.

Mr. I mean Dr. Wilson...don't confuse him with his "grandfather!" is a good prof. The perma smile is a bit creepy, but why not? I'd smile all the time too if I had a PhD.
