Comment:
So... This was the most boring class I have ever taken. Lots and lots of reading which is also boring. I like history and making it through this class was a true accomplishment. A lot of people cheated on the final, which shocked me because this is college, but the poor guy had no idea. Midterm was a take home, and the final was in class.

Professor Rubenstein isn't too bad, his lectures may seem super boring but if you do the readings for his class you'll do so well. The midterm and finals were cake! If you take notes during class he basically gives away exam answers

He's a sweet old guy who's very passionate about history. His lectures seem to go on forever because he has a monotone voice and the class is at night.

Comment:
Very smart professor, he's like a walking textbook. He does assign a lot of readings. He isn't the most interesting professor at Pace. He can be extremely boring and his class isn't exciting at all. You WILL fall asleep! He can literally talk for 3 hours straight and will take 20 mins to answer one simple question!

Comment:
Rubenstein is incredibly knowledgeable on the subject! I was often blown away by the amount of stuff that he knows and how much he reads. He is one of the nicest professors and will do everything he can to help students. Easy grader. However, he tends to be very boring in lectures. Also, he doesn't really care if you never show up to class...

If you like professors that know absolutely everything about the subject, you'll really like him. Yeah, he's alittle boring I guess because he talks for 3hrs straight, but I really didn't mind. He's not too bad of a grader, I've only gotten above 90's on my papers. I never really read the textbook, only for when writing papers. Very, very nice man.

This guy really knows a lot about history - he talks for 3 hours straight. Really nice guy, but incredibly boring. Interesting paper topics and easy grader. Engage him in conversation and you'll get an A.

Comment:
This class and professor is INSANELY boring. You will probably be on facebook most of the class, but if you study everything on his study guides and give yourself time to do his papers instead of waiting until the last possible second, you won't do horribly. i wouldn't recommend it though. It's truly painful.
