One of the better professors I've had. Lectures are worth going to, as he will tie together many of the ideas you'll be learning about. Midterm consisted of 10 identifications and 1 essay. Final consisted of 15 identificiations and 2 essays. As long as you pay attention in lecture and go to discussion, you should be fine. The weekly homework consisted of a long and usually difficult reading, and a question which you will write about a paragraph to answer. Discussions are very important. Get a good TA (I had Revere, he was great). The TA's ended up grading everything in the course: section assignments, midterm, five page paper, and final. Get a good TA, get to know them well, drop by during office hours if you can.

(Courses taken: GE CLST 21B) Effectiveness: Better than his lecture counterpart, Professor Porter. However, this could be because the subjects he lectures on tend to be more interesting. Difficulty: Not that difficult. Concern/Availability: Like most GE cluster professors, he makes himself very available outside of class. Overall: Good professor.
