Mr. Park's lectures are always fascinating, even when he goes on tangents about his own experiences or about fun facts. Assigns a lot of reading, so beware. Exams are blue book essays which are graded tough, but fairly. Overall I would recommend Mr. Park's classes for the lecture content. Also, he is very accessible outside of class, appreciated!

Professor Park is the best professor I've ever had! He cares so much about his students, is extremely understanding and adaptable, and asks thoughtful, honest questions. He grades really fairly and lectures in a way that really tells a story. I took this class to fulfill a Global Studies requirement and was shocked by how much I loved it.

Interesting class, pretty enthusiastic professor. He gave us study guides for each test, but he might not for future classes (he says we depend too much on them). Really helpful in office hours, so if you take him, go at least once to his office to see what he wants from you in the exams.

He's a really nice guy, and pretty approachable. The lecture is rather easy to follow, but be careful on the tests- he grades according to what other students say, so how you do depends on how well everyone else does. Otherwise, pretty decent class, real nice guy.
