Reviews of professor William Cuddihy

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Lecture Heavy- nothing extra other than him talking the whole time (no technology used). The tests are very difficult. If reading is your thing, go for it!

He's lecture heavy and often barrels straight through them (save for a coffee break in the middle--you'll get it when it happens). If you read his lectures, the chapters, and pay just a little bit of attention in class you'll be fine. Give him grace with tech, turn your camera on every once in a while, and answer his questions! It'll pay off!

Professor Cuddihy is anintelligent professor and very knowledgable about what he is teaching and gives a fun storytelling take on historical events. He makes sure to let you know beforehand what will be on the exams - matching, multiple choice, and true and false ( final includes an essay). He provides typed lectures and reading the book is a must!

Wouldn't take his class at all. Doesn't go over the textbook and tells stories about the chapters instead. Grades are based on his tests. Doesn't respond to emails. He's 76 and likes to do things old school. Find a professor who you're better off with going over the book, gives test preps, better study guides, and is willing to help you.

He's very knowledgeable, but that doesn't necessarily make him an effective teacher. Lecture heavy, goes off on tangents frequently. You MUST stay on top of the reading. Prep for class by doing the reading so you'll be familiar with what he covers that day. He takes turns calling on students. His multiple choice tests are straightforward.

One of the worst professors in the History department. He makes you read a book on your own and doesnt cover them in class at all. Tests are also tough. Not one student got an A. They all got Fs on the tests. Avoid him at all costs.

Awesome History Professor!
