Reviews of professor Kiel Brennan-Marquez

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
I was going to get a graduate degree in political theory when i realized i could not pay back my student loans. Took Kiel for Con Law. What a fraud. My advisor would often say dont dress up pedestrian thoughts with academic twaddle. When I translated Kiels lectures for my study group they would say "but that is obvious. Why didnt he just say so."

Maybe because I am older and maybe because I was a TA and heard a lot, but he is lazy, and narcissist and concerned with his image. Hands out lots of SCT cases which he does not edit, does not listen the oral arguments and does not read the briefs. Lots of his philosophy rather than the Court's. Learned nothing about Con Law.

I really can't say enough bad things about this professor. The course centered heavily on the socratic method, but conversation was conducted in a way where we learned very little, and students were instead asked to just make arguments that didn't even reflect those in the opinion.

I know a lot of students had Professor KBM for ConLaw but I had him for CivPro and I absolutely loved him. He is so incredibly smart, passionate, insightful and interesting. I really enjoyed his teaching style and the way he related to historical context. His exam was manageable and intriguing. I would 100% take again!

Incredibly smart person and his lectures are very interesting. He can be a little long-winded at times, and sometimes the discussion goes on too long. Go to his office hours to really understand what he's looking for on an exam. He loves when people volunteer to speak and share their opinions.

Disappointing class - KBM tends to lecture for long periods of time without making very much sense, and does not seem to care much about how well his students are doing.

Many professors have the ability to take complicated concepts and make them understandable. He takes understandable concepts and dresses them up with opaque jargon. When you realize he is saying rather obvious things you realize the emperor has no clothes

A pretentious self important narcisist. Wants to be adored for being this brilliant cool dude but easy to see through him except for some of the young and impressionable, He forgets that he is here to teach not strut around pontificating and showing off how much smarter he is than every one else.
