Comment:
Dr. Akinyemi is one of the most interesting professors I have personally, but a boring lecturer. The class discussions are not interesting since barely anyone participates but if you ask questions and engage you will learn and enjoy it more. He is very approachable and knowledgeable about his field.

Best professor at KSU. Hes challenging for sure but if you read the material and keep up with the news then you are golden. If you are in college to learn and to take it seriously then you will be more than prepared for your future job. He teaches you to think and analyze the material.

Comment:
Super interesting class but the tests, mid-term and final, are incredibly difficult. need to read every word of the text book along with the book Brazil. 15 page policy proposal group paper worth 40% of grade, includes the 15 page proposal, 3 page proposal summary, and a presentation. Interesting class discussions but always goes off tangent

Comment:
People need to go to class before complaining about him. It is rather boring, but only because you have 8-10 people in class when he is trying to lead discussion. One paper which you discuss in round table format. Two essay tests. Straight lecture which is boring. Very cool and funny guy though, if people actually join in discussion enough to make class more enjoyable.

He's a great professor. A little unorganized. The class is part discussion of the topics at hand - be prepared to voice your opinion coherently.

Comment:
By far the worst professor I have taken at KSU. Completely disorganized, canceled class 3 times in the semester, had a student aid run class one day, and lectures while rambling about nothing. If you can avoid taking this course with him I would take someone else. I made a good grade in his class so that is not why I rated him harshly.

Comment:
He is somewhat lenient but keep in mind his background when selecting your paper topic. He doesn't like to read your papers so keep it short and simple despite the level of the class or he will knock points off for lenght.. weird. Tests are alright

Comment:
Took 1101 for core requirements. The syllabus says there's three tests worth 33% of your grade. THEN, participation is worth 10%. Math? The powerpoints are vague and unhelpful. The amount of info you have to retain for tests that have terribly vague questions is ridiculous. Had a 4.0 till this class despite HOURS UPON HOURS of studying.

Comment:
Out of 3 years of college, I've always given professors the benefit of the doubt. This guy is the worst professor I have ever experienced. Grow up? He's late every day, rude, grades arbitrarily,lazy, unstructured, everyone was confused as to what was expected in class. He's pathetic. He should be replaced by someone who wants to teach.

I just read the comments before mine and i am very displeased! Dr. Akinyemi is a very thorough professor that will assist you 110% if you ask for it. He isn't a mind reader. His class/grading style is fair. come to class, do some readings, ask questions and you are good to go!

The semester started of great, until he decided not to show up for the rest of the semester. Unclear on what he wont's you to do. He is also very unfair. Dont take him if you care for your GPA.

He's a nice guy, but a terrible teacher. Everyone was completely lost due to his lack of organizational skills and weird hard to follow lectures. Beware!

Excellent! Dr. Akenyemi knows his subject thoroughly and can talk about it at any level. He explains opposing views without bias, but also challenges people to justify their opinions and supports people trying to work out ideas. One of my favorite teachers - take his class if you want to understand how global politics and economics work!

He is hard to understand with his accent, but he is nice and lenient, and can sometimes be fun. Mostly he is boring while teaching.
