Comment:
It is true that Lars was arrogant but they should regret his leaving - after all, he was the youngest in the Department of otherwise near retirement or retirement-age professors. Additionally, I do think that comment about Lars beaing a lousy reseacher was made by his colleague -- after all we,the students, rarely comment on their research, right?

Comment:
Oh boy, am I glad to see him gone to no man's land up North? What a big ego? Some students believe he is smart just because they don't get what he talks about. He is wise to pursue administration and just forget about teaching. Not that great researcher either.

Amazing prof, makes you work for your mark. Some people think he comes off as just an arrogant ass, but the man's a genius. Show up for class, do your readings and work, and you'll do fine.

Comment:
He can be rough on freshman - he makes you work for respect. Now that I'm taking upper level stuff with him, I realize how amazing he is. The man is BRILLIANT and an engaging lecturer. He isn't easy, but you will learn A LOT. He has a great sense of humor and his lectures fly by. If you ask for help, he will give you help. Best prof here.

Very clear, engaging lecturer who knows his stuff. Tough, but fair - work hard and it'll pay off. What does his car have to do with anything?

Never had him class. I'm sure we wouldn't do wind sprints in class for 30 mins at the end of practice in pol sci. Good guy......had a couple things in common with every other rugby guy, drinks and has a good time. GO DAVISON!

Comment:
He drives a lexus...he's allowed to have an ego. Great prof that explains all concepts in full. Asking questions in class is though, but if you go to his office hours he's very helpful. Easy tests IF you study. Easy papers. Can catch him at Bucket Night every Friday at the INN :)

Comment:
An introverted prick - but a great teacher and lecturer, he is very fair in class and extremely smart and kowledgeable. For some reason he is happy in Antigonish - loves his rugby and his beer, a man whose greatest weakness is the knoledge of what he is capable of.

Scared the crap out of me at first, but he really tries to make sure his students dont fail (under 65 on an essay you can re-due it) has high expectations but it makes you work.
