Reviews of professor Claude Clegg

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
The lectures were very relaxed and casual but the assignments were a different story. The midterm and final were such broad prompts that it took at least 8 to 10 pages to answer every part of the question- very stressful to say the least. But when you're in class with Prof. Clegg it's a very relaxing and calm environment.

He seems like a nice person and very caring. Unfortunately, he gives the dryest lectures I've ever heard. Your grade is determined by several essays that have nothing to do with class material. TA gave no helpful feedback. I can't speak for his other courses, but avoid this class at all costs.

Prof Clegg was great! His lectures can be a bit boring but the material is interesting and he knows his stuff. There are 3 papers that he gives the sources for. The info he asks for is a lot but manageable. For midterm & final he gives the prompt ahead of time. There are readings but they are discussed in class. They can be helpful for the exams.

Professor Clegg is super knowledgeable and a great professor. He was always willing to give extensions on papers and prepared us as much as he possibly could for the midterm and final. His class was a super comfortable place to share thoughts and ask questions. Class is all lecture with some discussion.

Professor Clegg was a good professor. He was able to move his class from in person to online without complications. He had 5 response papers (2.5 roughly pages each) a book analysis (7 pages) and a midterm and final. He cares about word count but will give you all the points if you meet the minimum criteria. Class is only him lecturing.

Overall, I really enjoyed Professor Clegg and his class. He is a respectful man with a vast knowledge of the subject matter. He does a great job voicing the opinions of both sides of opinion and keeps his own beliefs concealed. Overall, the only minor complaint I have is the feedback. He doesn't grade your papers, which was disappointing to me.

This was clearly his first time teaching this course. His assignments were too broad and were graded without a clear rubric. The lectures are generally a repeat of APUSH and do not help with the midterm or the papers. He is a nice guy, but he does not know how to teach this class.

Professor Clegg is really knowledgable and invested in his class. Lectures became really monotonous sometimes because we just listen and take notes, but overall the class was pretty interesting. I really enjoyed the books, but there were quite a few regular readings assigned. Grading is based on papers, but they're generally pretty simple.
