The class admittedly was a little disorganized at times but Ahuja is a great professor with lots of interesting perspectives. There are a lot of assigned readings per week so I'd recommend at least skimming the material each week so that you're prepared to engage in section, which required mandatory participation

He's a nice man but his lectures are insanely dry and repetitive. For all those saying you need to attend lecture to understand the readings, you don't. You can only miss up to 3 lectures and they take roll. 2 8 pg papers and final is 3 take home mini essays. Overall, never taking his class again. Does anyone know if he curves??

Best professor I've ever had. I was going through a tough time when I took his course and he was very understanding. He helped me so much during office hours and gave me great advice about my academic career. His lectures are life changing! Be ready to hear about realities when you go to his lecture, they are eye-opening.

Great course .It was very different from the other courses that I have taken at University. It made me think about protests in a new ways . He is a nice guy and cares about his students .I am taking another course with him this quarter. Warning At times the readings can be long and boring. Don't miss lectures.

He is a really nice guy, but probably the second worst professor I've taken in the poli sci department. He does lectures from memory, and they are very dry and often scattered. In addition to his scattered lecturing style, I found his assignments were way too vague, weren't engaging, and didn't properly build on the course material.

Took Politics of the Poor with him, very cool class. He is wonderful to talk to and constantly motivates you to think about course ideas and stuff going on out in the world. Awesome professor, class is heavily based on reading and lecture but very interesting.
