Human Rights was such an interesting class to take. I liked the assignments well enough, and Prof. Miller was nice. Id be willing to take another class with this Professor.

ATTENTION PROFESSORS OF MJC: please have Prof. Miller show you how to organize your online classes. He makes it straight forward so we can focus on the material not the BS of navigating your dysfunctional canvas page. It is truly pathetic how bad some of you are at setting this up. This guy gets it. He is a good professors in other regards too.

Dr. Miller is amazing. I have taken a couple of classes with him and he always provides plenty of feedback on assignments. His assignments really help with understanding the material, making big assignments like essays and essay exams manageable. He is a caring professor and is very accessible outside of class. He inspired me to switch to Poli Sci.

If you ever have the ability to take a political science course anywhere, take it at Modesto Junior College with Dr. Miller. It is not just because he challenges you to think, he guides you to think. This is what teachers should do, but it seems that many teachers have failed in this regard. Dr. Miller is training the future through pedagogy.

The lectures were very entertaining and I looked forward to every class with him. Make sure to take good notes and study them because that will make the tests a cakewalk. There are 3 essays which are challenging but manageable. I can't recommend him enough; he knows how to teach and he knows how to make things interesting.

Professor Miller is the best professor Ive had out of my 4 semesters in college. The class was very engaging, the work load was reasonable, and tests were fair. Prof M seems to be left leaning politically, but as a conservative/libertarian I can say my insight was never dismissed and I never felt uncomfortable in his classroom. 1000000% recommend.

I took Mr. Miller's MPOLSC-101 online class and enjoyed it very much! He is very responsive and grades right away. He provided various ways to learn the material (i.e., recorded lectures, web conferences, reading material) and it was very interesting. There is reading assignments and work assignments due every week; text book required.

I really enjoyed professor Millers class. I took this class over the summer and it was very eye opening. He gives us about three cases to read each week, but trust me.. everything you learn in this class will be very useful. This is a class I would recommend everyone to take. There are a few papers that need to be written but nothing too difficult.

I cannot praise Professor Miller enough. His online presence was huge, he participated in all the discussions, responding to the students, he had conference calls which were great, and he dedicated himself to the class. When grading he often included comments on what he enjoyed reading and improvements which could be made. Cannot recommend enough.

I do not recommend him at all. Professor Miller loves his class to teach but he does not think out of the box. His three-unit class is equalling to over six-unit class.

Miller is an awesome professor ( online), but there is so much hmk! interesting topics, but very time-consuming. You have 4 essays, and then an essay for the final. It's not a tough class though, do the work and you'll get a good grade. You'll come out feeling confident about the subject, also.

Miller was very involved in the online class, his work was thorough and gives great feedback. The material was always interesting and he obviously has a passion for his work. Put in the work, you'll get a good grade and learn something, and come out more compassionate for the world around you. I think everyone should have to take human rights.

I took Dr. Miller for Polsc 120. His class challenged me academically and took me out of my comfort zone as a student. He is clear, informative, and approachable. This is not a class you get an easy A in. However, if you do the work and participate in class you will take a lot from the course and having him as an instructor.

Comment:

Professor Miller seemed really cool at first, and a great teacher who cares. But after I shared my far left political views I noticed my work was being graded more harshly and I felt as if I was forced out of an A in the class because of my far left political stance.

Professor Miller is fair, but expects you to put in work. You will definitely spend the exact amount of hours as described in the syllabus on homework and classwork. There is no getting out 5 minutes early. Don't even think about cutting corners. Put in your required time and you will get the grade you deserve. A lot of reading and writing.

He is really such a humanitarian and overall simple homework, simple lessons, simple class flow. I would say take him! The in class patticipation is key although he does not call on people EVER. And I think it's cool that we, as students, get his opinion, and to learn and, apply what we learn, to curreny situations in America every day. Loved it!
