Reviews of professor Kevin Murphy

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
As an international student who might not have all the knowledge regarding the course, the professor assumes everyone in class knows the history! Very inconsiderate and doesn't help properly. His lectures are very boring if you're not that interested in the subject. Readings summeries and midterm and finals. Grades very heavily.

2 Essays (Midterm & Final, allows one cheat sheet for both). 3 concept papers (He will give you the topics. Use the textbook to write them and you'll be fine). He lectures the whole class, so it intends to get boring. Participating isn't mandatory. He's patient.

Very intelligent professor who knows how to give honest, critical, and fair writing feedback. He really seems to care about his students and their success. Prof Murphy isn't an easy A+ but he absolutely gives you the tools to do well if you show up to class and are ready to put in some work. There was a primary and a secondary source essay assigned

Professor Murphy is lenient with attendance and not a tough grader. There have been 3 fairly easy reading summaries. There has been one paper. The take home midterm was completing 2 out of 3 essays (7 paragraphs each). The final is a paper (1,200 words). I recommend this professor and would take him again.

He was such a nice professor sometimes the lectures made no since but I still liked them. there was three midterms that are essays he tells you the questions ahead of time and you get a one page cheat sheet. He was supper nice and I actually liked his class

Incredibly kind prof. He cares about his students and is always ready to help. He's super knowledgable and charismatic. The exams are in essay format and he allows you to bring a cheat sheet. He allows you to resubmit assignments instead of giving you a bad grade.  He will prepare you for each exam!!! Take him!

he was a good prefessor not bad at all just sometimes the lectures could get boring but thats history for you. tests are upfront and grants a cheat sheet which is awsome. not too much homework a few concept definitions that make up the most of your grade but theyre not hard at all.
