This class is a joke. He is very disorganized and is never on time to class. The book is hard to understand and makes no sense. You watch movies that have nothing to do with the class. If you do take this class, which I don't recommend, get Leonard McMahon as a TA. He is awesome. Easy grader and lets you out early.

Disorganized, shows films in class, no lecture. Book requires a thesaurus and dictionary to decipher-he contributed to the book. Take home essay/tests that were HARD because they were straight out of the incomprehensible book. Great TA though. Could have been a great class if it was actually taught.

This professor has poor teaching skills and his class is a joke. He is incredibly unorganized and rambles too much. He truly wastes class time and doesn't even give you a real syllabus.

genuinely nice person, but I have no idea what was going on in the class, his lectures have no structure and doesn't use power point or anything, he just talks. All the tests were essays. Not hard, but hard to sit through is lectures!

Great professor, OK class. Attendance was mandatory and counted for about 20% of the overall grade. He gave us a take home midterm and a take home final along with one term paper. It seems like he will give you at least a B+ if you tried. Great professor, sometimes hard to understand. He has an amazing vocabulary and is pretty interesting.

He's such a nice guy, but I could never grasp the main idea of one sentence that came out of his mouth.

Very unclear and unorganized. Cool guy though. Helpful in office hourse.

He was incredibly nice and really wanted to help students, but he couldn't structure a lecture to save his life. Most students were lost; we could have learned so much more if he could keep a train of thought. Reading was easy, but he was very unclear and too academic. I do not recommend him unless you have a background in history or polisci.

Jude is a really cool, funny guy, but lecture is just really boring. I fall asleep most of the time through both his lectures and movies. Easy class though, and my TA (Christi) was really good.

This class is really boring! you can't understand the professor at all. i usually doodle in this class when he's talking. the movies are good, but some dont make sense. just go to section every week and do the midterm/final study guide and you'll get an A.

Awesome Guy!!! Very friendly and easy going. He'll help you out if you just ask. I got an A just by attending every lecture and discussion and taking excellent notes. The reading isnt too bad either. He has a Nigerian accent and calls everyone Gauchos...

If you don't sit in the back of the class and take up space and air, you could learn a lot from this teacher. He is a great resource and very helpful in office hours. I absolutely loved this class!

A nice guy, but the class I took was poorly constructed and he was very unclear. I also never received my research paper back, so I'll never know if he even read it.

amazing, amazing professor.

Akudinobi was very interesting and is very personable. I enjoyed our thoughtful and sometimes extremely lengthy class discussions. Plus, I found his calling us "Guachos" pretty funny.

i got a pretty good grade with out lots of work. He is good with help out side of class, its hard to focus in class, he talks a lot. Movies start late often, and once stayed an hour over. But they are good movies

he is so annoying because he constantly calls the class Gauchos and says,"hello, Gauchos" everytime no one answers his questions. He must say that phrase like 50 times during one class session. But i must admit, his class isnt very hard

A committed student will have a lot to gain from this class. He knows his stuff very well. He is a blessing opening us to other cultures of the world. Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge with those of us that care to learn.

He is an excellent teacher. Student focused. Very knowledgeable about his stuff. Very helful to students, finds and recommends good resources. Very patient and cool. He is a perfect gentleman.Wants other to succeed. God bless you, Sir!

Very easy class. He is probably the coolest professor here. He likes to make fun of people occassionally, but in a nice way. He always says "Gauchos, you are scholars".. or "Any questions Gauchos?".
