Brutal class to have to take, really dry, total grind. Prof is a cute old man. He's pretty nice but very old school and goes by the book. Everything is in typewriter font. Tests were multiple choice/ short essay. He gives pop quizzes. There is no wiggle room for anything.

Very knowledgeable-- great guy to talk to about current events. As far as class goes, he is a lecturer by trade, so get ready to listen and take notes. He is very helpful outside of class, and creates a positive learning environment. I recommend being interested in the subject, because class is lecture heavy

Outside of class, hes a great guy. However, hes very old school and if you cant take notes without slides, dont take his classes. He also gives out a lot of pop quizzes including after a midterm. His lectures can get boring and he wont let you out early even if he runs out of things to say.

Comment:
He is very kind and tries to make the class enjoyable, however he fails at teaching. If you struggle at focusing during class or can't take notes orally than skip this class. He never discusses the reading and rambles on about random topics.

He is old school. He does not believe in Extra Credit. He's funny. I took a morning class where no one talked so it would take a while for us to realize his jokes. He loves his pop quizzes. His papers are fairly easy.

Political Thought was an awesome class, Dr. Egbert is fantastic. As a graduating Senior I wish I would have taken more classes with him.

I'm surprised at the low reviews popping up for my man Dr. Egbert! I loved Political Thought so much I took American Political Thought. It's a bit more out there and the reading can be difficult to get through, but if you show up to class, do some of the reading, and participate and ask questions, easy A. Not much writing, either.

very mono-toned man everrr. I took his american gov class over the winter, which was a 3 1/2 hr class every week night. I want to kill myself. He's a nice guy but you can't just breeze through the class, you need to HARD CORE study for tests (and this is coming from a person who never studies, usually just wings it). Don't recommend.

Wow, I'm really surprised to see low reviews for Dr. Egbert on here. I'm currently in his State and Local gov class, expecting an A or A-. You just need to do the reading for class, BEFORE class, because he likes to give quizzes on it. Take notes when you read and in class and you should be fine. He's extremely helpful.

Do NOT take this class with Egbert unless you enjoy taking tests. That's ALL he gives the whole semester and if you're not a good test taker then you can forget about passing the class. He goes way too fast when teaching material and is more or less the most boring teacher I have ever had. The class is awful.

Be prepared to take TONS of notes, and do TONS of reading. You can't not do the reading either, because he has a quiz at the beginning of class every time a readying is suppose to be completed. This guy really loves what he's teaching, more than any other professor I've had a Plymouth State. Not a bad guy, but I wouldn't recommend taking class.

Bob Kicks Ass! But I feel bad when he makes good jokes and no one in the class is listening. I am not deeply intersted in Gov, but I enjoy his teaching and his class. Egbert you are the man!
