He is a good lecturer and is well-suited to teach the course material

Lectures are very long, get ready to take some notes. Midterm was pretty easy and the quizzes are not hard either. Final was multiple choice study words and definitions.

Wont cancel class under the harsh virus, and being really mean. Class is boring

Great lectures. He is clear on what will be on quizzes/exams. Take notes each class because he does not give you any notes to access after class. Slides he uploads are cliff notes of the lectures. Exams/Quizzes are based solely on the notes. NO textbook to refer to! One research essay.

I've taken his Global 130 class before and this class was similar grading structure: 3 quizzes, midterm& paper. I really liked the course, the professor did a great job of explaining all the terms/events. Not all reading is mandatory, he will tell you which will be tested on and most slides are posted, overall pretty easygoing and approachable!

He gives very heavy slides but posts them later. The class is on terrorism so it is very interesting. 3 quizzed throughout the quarter (pretty easy) and then one midterm that was short answer in class. And then one final paper that's 8 pages about due finals week. If you find terrorism interesting and dont mind reading and writing, do it.
