Reviews of professor James Gilley

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Dr. Gilley is a great teacher. I didn't do great in the class, and that falls back on me. He is clear about his expectations and what he grades on. We had fun class moments, and he is clear about communication and how to get in touch. Super nice, and a funny guy. It's a good class with a great professor.

He is an amazing teacher. It may seem at times he gets off topic but this is never the case, he'll find fun and interesting ways to get the material across, so that you can relate to it or at least remember it. Great and wonderful teacher!

Dr. Gilley was one of the first professors I ended up taking due to the class being about Russian politics. I learned a lot and definitely was a highlight in my college life. If he offers a seminar, take it!

Gilley is my favorite professor in all of Nicholls. His lectures are funny, interesting and enjoyable. He's "one of us" in the sense that he relates well to everyone. You'll pass with an A if you do the assignments and participate a little in class. -Also brings us candy just because he's cool.

Doc G is a super nice and relatable professor. Attendance isn't technically mandatory but he does have a daily question each class that is worth a few points. Just take notes and keep track of the daily questions and you'll do well.

Dr. Gilley's Govt 101 was a pretty easy and informative class. Clear instructions and grading criteria. Only 2 exams which are open book, and several writing assignments. The writing assignments are not difficult and I found them pretty interesting.
