Reviews of professor Daniel Chard

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Chard is nice but class is boring. Long lectures, often goes on tangents and stumbles over himself which makes him hard to follow. The readings are horrible. Usually have 4+ chapters weekly that tend to be 20-30 pages which is tedious for a 100 level. Grade based on 2 essays and 2 exams, both he grades harshly. Wouldn't recommend for GUR credit.

Passionate professor who was knowledgeable and gave interesting lectures about the subject. Just make sure to keep up on the reading, attend all the classes, and keep good notes.

HIST 390 is one of the most important classes I've ever taken in my life. It was excellent. He is VERY knowledgeable and passionate about the subject of terrorism, and treats the subject and his students with appropriate care. He really wants to see your success as a student, and accommodates people extremely well when they need it. He's the best!

He is truly a great professor. It helps to know this is his main area of research so he is extremely passionate about the subject matter and clearly knows his stuff. Discussion posts basically every week with one short research project mid-quarter and a final cumulative paper. Overall a fantastic class that I would recommend to anyone.
