Reviews of professor Gladden Pappin

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
His lectures are a rambling, disorganized mess. Does he prepare? For his sake, I hope there is some explanation other than hopeless at lecturing. A previous student had led me to expect dry humor. But its just a kind of snippy snarky tone. You almost feel bad for him when he tries to use humor. He was probably picked on as a kid. A lot.

Although he is a nice, sarcastic person, he has been my worst teacher. His lectures and explanations are very confusing and it is so hard to take notes because when he teaches, it is very scattered. It's so hard to stay awake in the class because his class is so boring and he doesn't do a good job of explaining the readings.

Gladden is sharp, witty and provocative. Pay attention and do the readings. If you keep track of the big ideas, you'll do fine. This class is Enlightenment and Liberal Democracy ... and he's a monarchist.

Wonderful man, the worst part about his classes is the period of time between Thursday and Tuesday that I am forced to go without his insightful and cutting commentary on his archenemy: LIBERALISM.
