He is a funny lecturer but if you’re a person who gets easily offended then you might not want to take this class. You don’t have to get the physical books but you’ll need some type of copy so feel free to kindle it. He only gave 3 paper assignments for the entire class. That being said he is a HARSH grader and does grade on a curve. Really particular about grammar and paper formats. A grades are like super extraordinary so most people got B+/A-. If you’re looking for a more laid back, discussion based class then this is a good fit for you.

As a professor, he’s really into the whole conspiracy deal and he leans on the far left so be prepared to listen to him moan and groan about amazon. Part time professor but makes time for office hours

I really appreciated Professor Winningham, he was an inspiring professor and was always available to his students. He was open and made the class comfortable for us to express our views on the materials. He was funny, sarcastic, and very knowledgeable, overall I would definitely take any class of his over. He does take attendance so be there!
