Comment:
Dr. Bradford is a genius who can hold high-level conversations with anyone. As abstract as a question might be, he brings it down to earth to point out what the answer is in certain terms. Sometimes the answer is there is no good answer. He encourages students to begin living well by thinking well and comprehending the issues thought offers.

Comment:
Bradford is a major creeper. He probably invites you over to his house more than he actually focuses on teaching you anything. His lectues are kinda scattered, and he will randomly bring up his deceased friends and seem very nonchalant about it. All in all, its a creepy class and you don't learn much. His opinions only matter. Take it elsewhere.

Horrible teacher, the man has delusions of marxism and will insult you at least once if you dont agree with him. For those who said he opens you mind Savellos is 10x better for philosophy.

4 tests including final gives a list of possible questions to be on the test always beforehand (plus) but the list is long usually about 40-50 questions in which only like 7-10 appear on the test 75% of test are the questions and 25% are T + F questions go to class listen and take notes on everything he says!

It's true. Bradford is a tough grader who will challenge most things you believe. This is a good thing. Play the game, listen to what he has to say and ace the class. Your life may change in the process.

If you're unlucky enough to get this guy here's some advice I wish I'd had before I went into it: Tape all his lectures, memorize them and then regurgitate them verbatim back onto the test. Don't bother studying because your interpretation will be considered wrong.

Comment:
I didn't believe what people wrote- thought it would be interesting to have a prof with different ideas. I was VERY very wrong. Boring, arrogant, creepy, and cites incorrect facts. Teaches Buddhism, not humanities. DONT DO IT. I wish I could find a way to get this man fired. Tests are based on what is said in class and supplemental readings.

My suggestion: Study for several hours until you think you know the material, then take a hammer and rail yourself in the face with it until you get either several concussions or little brain damage. Then just go to class and take the test. Your answers should be more than insane enough for you that have confused yourself an A. Good Luck.

horrible teacher. Doesn't teach Humanities, but instead rehashes all his philosophy rants and creepyness into a clutter of a class. Any other teacher for Humanities is the way to go.

Comment:
I took sayings of the Buddha with him. Hes awesome; he grades fairly as long as you argue for his opinions. Take Hum I with him because other teaches will give your essays F's while he gave me B+ because I agree with him. Also, hes very interesting to listen to unlike most teachers

Sayings of Buddah should be called The Sayings of Bradford. Incredibly arrogant, tells you you're WRONG if you disagree with his positions. Thinks he IS the Buddah. Wish I never signed up for his class. Creepy guy.

Comment:
Comes off as kind of a weirdo (constant invites to his house...) Does seem to know his stuff, and his ideas are compelling if you have an open mind, but seems to care more about getting you to meditate more than teaching how to write a good paper... Lecture style boring and very repetitive. Easy grader IF YOU AGREE WITH HIS POSITION.

Awesome professor. Very clear, thorough style for explaining the material, and encourages questioning- even going to his house (it's actually really chill, & helpful for participation). He comes across as having very strong opinions because he has such a deep understanding of eastern philosophy. No tests. Primary class focus: Improving your life.

Interesting Professor. Has strong opinions, and it often seems like hes trying to convert the class. A great guy tho, and encourages lots of class discusion. Don't take his class if you don't have an open mind.

Worst professor I have ever had in my life. Extremely arrogant, and thinks everthing has to say should be held as if it came from the Budah himself. Actually renounced Christ once in class and told us the bible was basically a book of lies...yeah great guy. Avoid at all costs.

Very strong in his opinions. Very boring class, never take at 8:00am,It was very hard to stay awake. Notes are very difficult b/c he talks about things that don't apply to the course. Gives you all the questions for the tests but,he gives you 50 of them and there are only about 10 on the test. Very specific in what he wants on tests. Avoid if at
