Comment:
My dad had him and got a 4.0 whole time at wvup, he warned me about him. This is the only teacher who gave my dad issues. Total jerk. I was sick for a week, i emailed him and everything that I was violently I'll, he emailed me back saying ok and to read the chapters and do the workbook along with it. I did. When I returned he told me to not bother coming to class anymore he was failing me due to attendance. I reminded him I was sick and we emailed, he said he didn't care he was failing me.

Comment:
his way of teacher is very hard. his tests are 10 questions which are pretty much opinions and u have to have like a half a page answer to each one to even begin to get credit. he talks in 3rd person all the time. don't not take him spare yourself the time and money.

While class is a bit dull, testing is essay; so if you actually listen you will do well, and he can be funny.

knows alot about his subject, but his tests are pretty hard, theyre all essay tests, and if you dont tell him exactly what he told you then you get it wrong, but he will sit down and help you if you go to his office.

He seemed very biased and if you don't agree with his interpretations and opinions, you won't pass the class.

BORING. This is High School style regurgitation/baby sitting style professor. You do a lot of worksheets just like in HS. You listen to boring out of date videos EVERY class. You do things like crossword puzzles. You never learn anything from the class.

Many, many articles to read and write reaction papers to. Open book tests every week that had "what is the best answer to the following. " Lots of movies. So very boring but you better make sure you don't miss or are not late.

As long as you study the test questions he gives you before the test ....you can pass. Easily. Listen to his lectures and take notes ONLY answers to the questions.

Hmm... I had to take this class again to get a better grade. Actually enjoyed the class until the day of the final when he wanted to put a "boot in my butt" for "not balancing out my life." I would seriously recommend taking somebody else for HIST 152 and 153.

If you are not good at remembering dates, this this is a great teacher. He focuses on the reasons behind historical events instead of dates and names.

Truely a wonderful professor. He returns dignity to the classroom by giving the student the oppourtunity to earn their grades. Not to be confused with those who hand out grades like candy.

Took me a little while to get used to his method of teaching. I escaped his class with a "C"... but yeah... talk to him after class, use "because" repeatedly and please don't be late... or don't talk in his class.
