Comment:
Spent too much time talking about the places he'd been and stuff he'd seen. Hardly ever talked about the topic at hand. Grading system made no sense. Actually expects students to read the book even though he hardly lectured on what was read.

Comment:
I loved this class, i was not as in love with him as most students, but at the time i was very quiet in class and he really likes poeple that talk and participate. The test are hard, you do have to study for this class and attend class but he makes the class fun, he has a great sense of humor and relates to the students very well.

Excellent professor. Very interesting and easy if you do your work. He's a very nice guy. His tests are not hard if you go to class, do your work, and study. He's very fun in class. If you want an intersting professor, interesting material, and a fun class, he is the man to take.

It doesn't get any better than Garfield. His tests are hard, I won't lie, but the class is worth it. Plus, he throws some great parties.

Garfield is a bit scatter-brianed at times but he's extremely easy and funny. Just talk to him about playing golf and drinking beer and you'll be one of his favorites. Just don't lay the **** on too thick because he sees right through it.

Excellent person all around. Makes class interesting, and doesn't pile on extra work. You are expected to do a lot of individual work outside of class, but its worth it. Grades fairly (not too easy, or too tough, as long as you studied). Very knowledgable about world events. A personal favorite!

Dr. Garfield makes learning fun! Especially if you like talking about beer and Europe. He does tend to skip from point to point, but so long as you're listening, you'll get it. He keeps your attention to a good deal and is always willing to help.

Nope, I didn't like the way he teached. I admit he is a fun and great guy, but personally reading a chapter then taking a test is certainly not the best way to learn anything.

Great teacher. Great experience. The anti high school teacher. If you don't like someone who jumps from topic to topic a bit, not much, i wouldn't recommend him, but the class is wonderful, and his tests and notes are pretty strightforward.

Great teacher...very funny and interesting. He likes to talk about beer and golf. One word of advise if you do take POL 140...DO YOUR NEWSWEEK reviews when they come out, they take a lot of time!

A bit disorganized, but a smart man who is a good teacher. His teaching is very interesting and fun. However, he likes to do presentations. I think that they are a kinda a waste of time because I don't learn that much from other students.
