Great professor - really knows how to teach. 3 tests that are all easy as long as you pay attention to his lectures and take good notes. You get extra credit points for showing up to class. He also doesn't use the textbook, so that saves you money. Dr. Starr made this class a breeze!

he really know what he is talking about, and loves what he do.his class is really easy if u paid attention and he also offers help

Starr is a star! I am not a history junkie but the information he relays actually peaks my interest. He is not an old crotchity, militant tyrant like some history buffs. Erudite and has an actual personality too!

Great Professer

The rater below has a major brain defect. Starr is awesome. Gives the tests questions prior to the test. NO TEXTBOOK . Very passionate about history...like...very...a little too much. and he was always polite when answering questions and wants students to do well. 100% recommend.

He enjoys teaching his classes. he gives 3 essay questions on each test but he gives you the questions a week before. he teaches fast i would recomend typing or recording for the notes. overall a good teacher.

Dr. Starr is an amazing professor! I took him for 1301&1302. He is very passionate about history, and his syllabus is very clear, if you follow his guidelines you will make an A.He grades very fair. Lots of extra credit opportunities. Just beware the class can get boring, but it's an easy A! And he is super nice if you have any questions&concerns!

I took him both semesters and recieved A's both times. He is a very good teacher. All his powerpoints that he uses are on the test. Do not buy the book, you do not need it . If you do the work then you will be able to get a B or A

He is very good and organized person. I took him for both history courses and totally loved his class..Just Awesome!

Great professor. Long lectures, but they are very clear and interesting. Attendance is important, and he does not require a book. Would highly recommend.

Tests were tricky, Just show up to class and don't miss the essays. I failed because I didn't attend and later found out an essay was due. Very clear instructions though

He will not hold your hand, but he is fair and makes his rules clear at the beginning of the course. Tests are reasonable, non-cumulative, and MULTIPLE CHOICE for the most part. Pay attention during lectures and you can easily earn an A in this class. He even repeats the important parts he expects you to remember.

Very easy class. I ended up taking the night classes and skipped the last 5 classes minus the final and passed. He was to boring to be able to sit 3 hours through straight lecture.

MUST ATTEND CLASS-no textbook so notes are necessary-Nice course to take during summer. Puts everything needed on BlackBoard for easy use and access.Non-cumulative FINAL!Review essay paper required. Willing to give information-ASK QUESTIONS!!!

I took this class over Summer 2012 & it is still one of the best classes I have ever taken. Dr. Starr is the best professor I have had in three years. His passion for history is evident in his lessons. It is nearly impossible to fail this class. Dr. Starr is willing to work with you & ensure you understand the material & what will be on the test.

Took Dr. Starr for HIST 1301 for summer I and absolutely LOVED his class! He is so helpful and SO ORGANIZED, SO CLEAR on his expectations and syllabus. NO textbook needed, just listen to him and take notes in class. His lectures are great, he is so smart and has so much knowledge. He's one of the best professors at Collin.

He is a realy good teacher!!!! I strongly encourage to take him! Just pay attention...everything on the test is something he has mentioned! I took his class in the summer, and it was super easy!!! Just study! We never even touched the book, its all from his lectures!!! TAKE HIS CLASS!!!!! He may be boring, but the clas is super easy!!!

History has always been a tough subject for me, but Professor Star makes history easy to understand! I highly recommend taking his class! He's super intelligent and makes history very interesting!

Dr. Starr is highly articulate and an exceptionally well lecturer. Listening to him speak is a pleasure. His grading critera is clear-cut, his essays are grade lifters and the quizzestests are not overly difficult (no textbook required!). Above all, he is easy to speak to and is available time and again to help students. Would take again 100%.

There aren't any group assignments or worksheets to do which in my case I love. He talks during the whole lecture but he keeps your attention with interesting facts. My advise would be to print the lecture and write whatever you don't know because simply listening to the lecture is the best way to pass this class. Only a few quizzes and essays.

He does not require a textbook, all you need to do is show up to class & take notes. Very knowledgeable teacher, he knows his material very well. If you study from your notes (if you take great notes), you will do well on his test. Attendance is mandatory. He is very straight forward, if you do what you need to do, he will help you to pass.

Dr. Starr is a great teacher and grades easily. We had a total of 10 quiz(10 question each) over readings which were short got A's on all of them. As for papers we had 3 and they were opened ended questions and only had to be 350-500 words. Only 3 exams but not much of a review type just look over the lecture notes and you're good.

Very clear when he lectures. Print out the power point outlines and take good notes if you want to do well on tests. He is VERY organized and stays on schedule. 3 exams (not too bad at all), 3 essays (EASY A's), and 5 quizzes over readings that are all very easy. Your grade will ultimately depend on how well you do on the tests. I recommend him

By far the best teacher I have had in Collin College. He gives you EVERYTHING you need to be prepared for the test. You must take notes in class to pass! He is crystal clear when he explains in the lecture and is super organized. I can't stress enough how great he is, TAKE HIM! I learned so much about history!

Summer class. Starr is a great professor - really knows what he's talking about. You MUST be present for lectures cause no relevant info is on slides (but no penalty for missed classes!). There's readings every week online, only a few pages; quizzes over readings, exams over lectures. He isn't a funny teacher but points out the ironies in history.

He is so knowledgeable. He grades easy on the essays. I had two essays and three exams. This class was not bad at all; however, if you get bored easily, then Starr is not your guy.

He is very smart, his ensures you help if you ask for it. READ the readings and do extra credit! He talks and talks and talks but everything he says is in the exam.

Hands down the best History teacher I have ever had! He is very clear about what he expects in class. He doesn't give test reviews but expects you to learn from your notes which are made easy because he is a moderate speaker and his lectures are to the point. Many times he would dismiss class and I would not believe how fast time flew. He's great!

I had him for HIST 1301 and it was a very easy A. The essays are not extremely hard and he tells you exactly how he is going to grade. The quizzes are easy and over readings. As long as you know history and take good notes, you will pass the test. TAKE HIM!!!!

Starr is a great professor You just have to be ready to come in and take notes everyday cause thats the whole semester but he isnt boring he gets straight to the point Of course if coming in and listening to lectures everyday is not your thing than Starr may not be your guy especially if you tend to get bored easily He is great though

Starr was an amazing professor. Lectures are long, but very clear and interesting. Everything on tests are from the lectures so just take good notes. There are required readings, and will have quiz over them but they are not too long. Only about 2 essays but super easy. Also gives extra credit opp. Gonna take him again for 1302

He doesn't enter grades until the grades until the end of the semester, but he's a great teacher and seems to actually care about his students. No textbook required, but you need to take good notes and attend class every day, because everything comes straight from the lectures. I would definitely take this class again.

I took this class to get my first History credit out of the way, & for someone that's always struggled with history classes & gets bored to death by them, this man changed that. His lectures were very detailed & clear. Take good notes, keep up with assignments, and ask for help if you're confused (which again, shouldn't be if you take notes) #LOVE

Prof. Starr is a wonderful professor. He is extremely knowledgeable in American history. He doesn't use notes, he just glances at the overhead and goes from there. It's all in his head. His lectures were details and interesting. If you don't like lectures or history, don't take this class, but I loved it and learned so much.

I have always done well in History, so I cannot say he is difficult. He is very knowledgeable about his subject and stresses taking good notes. Your notes from the lecture are what will make your grade; tests are based off the lecture. Cares about students and their success. Don't be absent, you will miss a lot of information.

Took him for 1301 and 1302, hands down best history professor I have had so far. Love the way he structures the class, two essays, five quizzes and four tests. Its easy to follow and you will know how the grading works from day one, no confusion on what you have in the class. Just come in take good notes and you will be fine. Don't buy the txtbook

OUTSTANDING professor, very clear grading criteria, offers to read your essays before due date and give you feedback to get an A. Not too much reading, plenty of quizzes to keep your grade up but not too many. His tests are so easy but still challenging enough to keep you entertained. This man is a sharp cookie take his class!

AMAZING PROFESSOR!!! I wish he taught summer 2. I feel like I actually learned things in his class. He's GREAT Professor I wish more Professors would teach like him, He is very clear with EVERYTHING from start to finish. Does not have a power trip complex very nice and makes you feel like he cares.

He is a really chill professor with a dry sense of humor that can make anyone laugh. He is easy to understand and makes sure to place all important details of historical events in his lecture. I am not a fan of history but he made it enjoyable.

Great, great, great professor! You will not be lost in this class. Starr not only understands history, he is an amazing communicator. He forms ideas extremely well and communicates them perfectly. Very good quality history class that *anybody* can be successful in. Even if you aren't good at history classes.

Dr. Starr is a great History professor! You can tell he is passionate and it comes through in his lectures. I loved that there was no textbook required! You must attend his lectures as that holds th key to success on your exams. He is very clear about expectations, and appreciates punctuality and participation.

Dr. Starr is the best professor at Collin. He has fantastic lectures and really cares about his students. Took 1301 and 1302 with him and it was Enjoyable. It's all lecture and no textbook. So make sure you go to class

Dr. Starr is the definition of a great professor. His lectures are all you need to do extremely well in the class; he's always available, quizzes and tests are easy, he prepares you for everything... not a single complaint.

I enjoyed this class. It was lecture based with no book reading. There were a few readings posted to canvass that he would quiz you on. The quizzes were reviewed the class before. I was able to just take notes on the review day (for the quiz not exams) and then do the reading and get 100s.

I have taken Dr. Starr for the second semester now. He is an amazing professor! He keeps me engaged in the topic and is extremely interesting. I appreciate the manner in which he lectures and makes learning about history a fun time.

took Dr. Starr for both 1301-1302 history. He is awesome, there is no book required, the test a all based on what he goes over in class so attendance is mandatory. the reading posted go along with the topics discussed in class. TAKE HIM!

I loved how organized this class was. Professor Starr has very clear expectations which make it difficult not to succeed. Most history professors tend to be biased and input their own judgments but Starr stuck to the facts. His lectures were easy to follow and quite interesting. My only suggestion: NO CELL PHONE USE IN CLASS

He sounds monotone a bit in lectures, but he lectures somewhat engagingly. It's like he telling us a story. Easy peesy to schedule a talk with him. Listen/ study lectures and you'll do fine. Simple/ easy class structure. In my Spring2017 w/ him- NO TEXTBOOKS. Twas only optional. EVERYTHING'S BASED OFF OF LECTURES. Highly recommend as "easy" prof.

There were 3 exams, 2 papers, and 5 quizzes over readings posted on canvas. He would give you the questions that would essentially be on the quizzes, so you knew what to look for while you read. On the exams we had terms to identify, and he would help prepare us for those. Tests are completely lecture based. Show up and you can easily make an A.

Best History teacher I have ever had! I'm sad I'm out of history classes to take. No book required, all lecture based. There are assigned readings for quizzes, but tests are based on the lectures. Legit, if you attend and take notes, you're good to go. No cumulative final--just a normal test. As easy as he his, you learn SO much and retain it. A+

He is a great lecturer and if you don't take notes you won't pass. The tests are multiple choice and short answers. Didn't use textbooks but there were online readings which were tested in the quizzes. Be punctual and don't miss any classes. in the summer semester a lot of material is covered in one class. extra points for 100% attendance.

Starr is a really knowledgeable professor that knows his way through every concept of history he teaches. His class is heavily lecture based so attending class and taking quality notes is essential to getting a good grade. There are readings that he bases his quizzes off of but as long as you have a general main idea, they're easy. Great class!

he is an amazing professor, he is very knowledgeable about his subject. make sure to attend class and keep up with the quizzes. the only reason i am getting a "B" is because i forgot to take the final quiz, it is very easy to make an a in the class if you do what he says

Mr. Starr is an awesome History teacher. He gives three tests, five quizzes, and 2 essays. Just go to class and take notes.

Starr is a great professor and passionate about History. Test were based on his lectures and only outside work was 5 quizzes with short readings and 2 essays.

He is an excellent professor. His lectures were easy to follow and everything on the test was based on the lectures. Everything was well organized and outside of class, there was only 5 quizzes and 2 essays.

Best history professor. He gives really clear instructions about the exams, essays and quizzes. His lectures are really clear. You could never find a better professor than him for history. All the exam questions and essays are based on lectures. Really an amazing professor. You can easily get an A+ if you pay attention to the lectures.

Great teacher. Hell literally teach you everything you need to know in his lectures and hes very clear and knowledgeable in his field. He made history bearable and interesting. Come to class and get extra points, take great notes off his lectures, review them for the tests and youre good to go. There were 2 essays, 5 quizes, and 4 exams.

Starr has been one of the best professors I've had yet. He's so organized, understanding, and straight to the point! This isn't a hard class to pass or get an A in as long as you show up and put forth the effort. There's 3 tests (the final is not cumulative), 5 online (10 q) quizzes, and 2 essays. Would take him for gov't if he taught it. Take him!

Has to be one of the most amazing teachers I've ever had. This man literally know everything there is to know about history and I've never seen him have to look at notes or even hesitate to answer a history question. If you show up and pay attention, it's an easy A and his lectures are extremely interesting. You won't regret taking his class.

The course consists of 3 tests, 2 easy essays, and a few online quizzes. Offers extra credit for attendance and a KIP lecture. Lectures can be a bit boring because he talks the whole time, but they are very informative and will help you pass the class with an easy A if you attend! He's really nice and loves to answer questions. Take him!

Prof. Starr gives amazing lectures. No textbook required so if you miss his lectures, you won't pass. I took excellent notes and made an easy A. He grades hard on the blue books for the tests, but everything else was graded relatively easy. He is incredibly knowledgeable and very organized.

He is very passionate about what he is teaching. He makes history interesting enough that you remember it. Would definitely take him again but dont need anymore hsitory classes.

He is very clear about what you need to know to pass the class and he is willing to help you out if you are struggling. Very kind and knowledgeable, would absolutely recommend!!! His only extra credit is attendance but as long as you work hard you will pass!

Professor Starr was great this semester. He doesn't get off topic and give clear instructions. If there is something important mentioned in class that could appear on the exams, he tends to repeat it at least two or three times. All exams are based off the lecture outlines and notes thats you take in class. History is hard for me so this was nice.

He was very organized and knew what he was talking about. He told history like it was a story which made it interesting. He was also helpful if you had any questions and was very clear with how things worked and when they were due. I am going to take History 2 because of him.

Very lecture based so make sure you show up! He tells his lectures like a story which makes them more interesting. Tests are relatively easy as long as you attend classes and study your notes for a few minutes. He repeats important test information multiple times and there's 2 easy essays and a few online quizzes. I'd take him again!

Great professor!! Made history interesting and threw in a few jokes here and there. There is no textbook required so it is very lecture heavy, but he only grades by 5 quizzes, 2 easy essays, and 3 multiple choice tests. The only extra credit is attendance, but as long as you show up and put in the work you can finesse an easy A.

Starr is one of the best professors I have had at Collin. His lectures are clear and actually really interesting and he will repeat the important material a couple of times to make sure you get it in your notes. He doesn't make you do any projects or talk which to me was really nice and his tests, quizzes, and essay prompts were really easy.

Starr is an amazing professor. Before his class I knew nothing about U.S. History and after his 1301 and 1302 class I can explain the entire history. He's an amazing professor and not taking him would be a mistake. If you need history TAKE STARR! His lectures are narrated like a story and he keeps everyone engaged! Be ready to take alot of notes!!!

I have taken Clinton Starr for 1301 and 1302 and ended up getting As in my classes. He teaches history like a story telling. If you can keep your attention and focus on lectures and take good notes you will be set for an A.

Very great professor. He makes history more entertaining because he gives his lectures like a story. No textbook, but study lecture material from every class.

Very intelligent man that gives lectures on relevant information that we needed for essays and tests. As long as you follow his criteria and instructions you can get an A+.

This professor is very smart. He is a great teacher and it is obvious he knows what he's talking about. The class is STRICTLY lectures which the test material will be over these lectures. Tests require a lot of studying but if you study the lecture material thoroughly, you will make an A.

this class is really easy and interesting

I found it pretty easy, just take good notes and you should be fine, there's not a lot of work in his class. Also, perfect attendance will give you extra credit so that's a bonus.

Made history fun to learn. Loved his class. Taking him for HIST 1302 after 1301. You have to show up to class though. You have to work for a good grade but he's an awesome teacher and I can really say I learned a lot.

GIVES AMAZING LECTURES. Gives only two opportunities for extra credit (one is having near perfect attendance) but you wont need it because his tests are SUPER easy and COME WORD FOR WORD from the lectures. He is super nice but can be strict--show up on time, take notes, leave, get an "A" in the class. it is simple. honestly, this is easiest class.

He straight up tells you that you dont need to buy the book because everything on the test comes from his lectures. He goes over everything at least twice and makes history REALLY EASY to understand almost like story telling. Best professor Ive ever had by far!!!

Professor Starr is a story teller in his lectures. Seriously has my mind imagining How history is making it interesting. Hes funny and has a passion for history! I wish I tallied how many times he says Well. If you take his class, youll understand lol. Show up to class, take good notes and youll do fine.

His lectures are great if something is important he will repeat it a few times. His test are 100% lecture-based, quizzes are 100% based on readings. You will have 3 exams, 2 essays, and 5 quizzes. If you show up every day 10 points of extra credit and 10 for going to the KIP lecture and that's the only extra credit offered. No textbook required.

Mr Starr is literally one of the easiest professors at collin. I have ADD and finished his class with a 100 this semester. bring laptop if possible bc his tests are literally verbatim what he says in lectures. Gives great feedback on essays outside of class -- he literally helped me be the only person to get 100 on both essays literally bc I asked

He is filled with knowledge and is an inspiration to his students. He is extremely passionate about the material and teaching it to his students. Tests are based on lectures. Its important to take good notes. If he says something more than once, write it down . Quizzes are taken from readings that he assigns. No textbook is required.

Great Professor! No textbook required. 2 tests (all lecture based, take good notes), 5 quizzes based off readings, 2 essays. Very easy, I got an A+ on everything with barely any effort. Show up to every class on time for extra credit. Show up, seem interested, & take good notes. Hes very professional but still nice and approachable. He gets an A++

Prof. Starr is one of the best professors I had. Gives slightly boring, but detailed and informative lectures, tells you exactly what you need to know. Taking again next semester

Dr. Starr is a great professor! He is very clear about what his expectations and grading criteria are from the beginning. Plan on attending class or you won't pass since he is lecture heavy. He gives clear feedback and instructions on the assignments. He will review your essays and gives pointers. I plan to take HIST 1302 with him again.

With everything being half online he posts his lectures on Canvas for us to take notes. He makes it super straightforward and repeats the important information so you know what to know for the test. Only 5 quizzes on readings he assigns, 3 Tests that are from lecture material, and 2 essays. Everything is doable, you won't regret taking him!!

Great teacher.

Just follow the instructions and you will do amazing. His lectures are concise and only contain what you need to know. There are a few challenging readings but if you are good at English you will manage with them. 2 simple essays, 3 quizzes, and 3 exams and you are ready to go. If you are a structure-oriented person take this class.

I took his class spring of 2020 but forgot to review lol. Very clear grading& assignment layout. No textbook required. Easy to follow lectures but he is simple. Not a lot of humor but hes very nice and answers questions. I love history & found the class very interesting. I took detailed notes & got an A at the end of the class with little effort.

Amazing professor! TAKE HIM! He is very organized & straight to the point. No textbook is needed. All of the information you need is in his lectures which are accessible outside of class too in the videos he uploads to Canvas. He's easily one of my favorite professors that I've taken. He lets us know what is important & what will not be tested.

Professor Starr is one of the best professors I have ever had! He gives clear instructions for every assignment (including discussion posts, essays, quizzes, and exams). He makes very detailed lecture videos, and as long as you watch all of them you should receive an A in the class. I would definitely recommend Professor Starr!

I've never liked taking history classes until I took one with this professor. The way he approached the topics and was always so into the material had me interested. This professor provided all the material you need in his materials and was clear about what he was looking for in the assignments. There are quizzes that are based on readings too!

Easy A+ if you follow instructions. Quick 5-week summer class with recorded lectures. All you need to do is listen and take notes. Lectures are super interesting and I actually enjoyed history for the first time. Quizzes are 100% based on the lectures and essays are easy. Professor Starr is a great teacher and highly recommendable!

This was the best history class that I've ever experienced. I usually get bored and easily lose interest in historical information. He taught about interesting topics. He broke things down in a way that everyone could understand. He compared history to the present tense. I love his style of teaching and will sign up for him to teach my 1302 class!

great professor, very fast paced, but will offer many opportunities to ask questions and when lecturing, will repeat/emphasize on important details/ vice versa (will let students know if something isn't important to know). his units are very organized, very good professor

I took 8 week classes, not a lot of work. This course contains 4 Chapter Exams(55%), 2 discussions(9%), 5 quizzes(18%), 2 essays(18%). That's all you have to do, and there is an extra credit opportunity too:)

you 100% have to show up to class to pass as all assignments (except quizzes) are based off lecture notes. he's assignments are easy to understand and the lecture is actually enjoyable! I had him for 1&2 and loved his class both times. he makes history VERY easy to understand; he does give 2 extra credit, one based off attendance and an assignment

He is so nice and so dorky lol but such a great teacher! He talks the WHOLE class period, and be ready to take TONS of notes. But if you show up everyday, take notes and study those notes, you'll done fine. I like his style of teachings, and I learned a lot. It's just a lot of information all at one time.

His online class is pretty easy but be prepared for an hour to two 1/2 hours of notes per topic. All his lectures are recorded and he repeats important information so you know what to weight down. When thinking about word count he uses Microsoft word which wont count words in quotes that have brackets so be prepared to write a few words over.

Professor Starr was amazing! His lectures were interesting and easy to follow. Make sure to study your lecture notes regularly to prepare for tests. There are five quizzes, two essays, and three tests. Quizzes are based on short readings, while tests are based on lectures. Dr. Starr is one of my favorite professors, and I loved his class!

Class was basically online. Lots of extra credit opportunities. Great proffessor. Only reason I made a B was bc I did bad on an essay. Only had 2 essays and they were both easy. Other grades were online quizes/exams.

This is a very straightforward class with good lectures. There are five quizzes, four exams, and two essays. The exams are based on lectures, and quizzes are based on one or two historical documents. You will pass if you go to class and take good notes. Class participation is not required. This is not a difficult class.

Dr. Starr is friendly, knowledgeable about U.S. History, a great lecturer, and provides an organized course layout with an excellent course calendar. These were all very helpful in a 5wk class. Be prepared to listen to many hours of lectures that contain ALL exam answers (2x speed is helpful if you can process it.) Overall I'd 100% recommend him.

His class was really easy, but lecture and notes heavy. If you miss class, there was no online information, so you do need to get notes from a friend. Lectures were dry, but he was a good teacher. I missed plenty of classes and still got a good grade with my friend's notes. All assignments were completed outside of class.

The lectures are amazing and easy to follow. As long as you take good notes on the lectures, you will do well on the exams (50 questions). He is a little stingier with the essays (about 250 words each). Just make sure you have thought it through. As long as you read the material he assigns well, then you will do fine on the 10-question quizzes.

Awesome Professor and great lectures.

Good class and not too many tests. There are useless readings every so often but it's not too bad. As long as you show up to class and pay attention the class should not be that hard.

This is not for you if you don't enjoy reading and listening to lectures. There isn't much homework, but the majority of the content for quizzes and exams comes from reading and lectures. However, I really enjoy this class since the professor is so kind and compassionate. I struggle in this subject, but he truly understands and helps me out!!

AMAZING lecturer. every quiz and exam was online and do NOT build onto each other. however if you miss class you will have a tough time as you have to get notes from a friend and the exams are based on the lectures while quizzes are based on readings. gave extra credit for attendance + an extra credit assignment

I've taken Professor Starr two semesters in a row and I have nothing but incredible things to say about him! His lectures are actually enjoyable to be a part of. His course is an easy A! Everything is very clearly stated on Canvas and he provides all the information you need to be successful. He's incredibly knowledgeable too.

I have never had a teacher that was this amazing at giving lectures. His pacing is incredible and he repeats important information. He seems very knowledgeable about what he is teaching and will often give us the "you don't need to know this for the test but...". He is a great teacher and his facial expressions is the cherry of the top. 20/10.

Overall amazing professor, would take again, exams were simple.

I never liked history but when i took Professor Starr that completely changed. He is very passionate and explains history so well! Everything is lecture based so make sure you go to class and take notes. He has 3 exams which are all online, and the exams are based off of what he talks about in lectures.

Professor Starr is an AMAZING SPEAKER. His class is lecture heavy; the way he speaks about subjects makes the lectures interesting & fun. He is incredibly knowledgeable about his topics. you can tell he's passionate about what he teaches. Class is structured in Lectures cover test material, and readings cover quizzes. I highly recommend him.

Prof. Starr made history fun to learn even with the note taking. He is an exceptional story teller; I could listen to him speak all day. Exams are online, some reading for quizzes, and a few additional assignments. You'll be a happy student if you take him.

Great class! His lectures are super engaging and interesting. Attendance is not mandatory, but his class is lecture-heavy. You won't find any notes on Canvas, but slides he goes into detail IN CLASS. Taking notes is a must to study for the exams. Quizzes are based on readings he posts alongside them.

LOVED this professor, he is very engaging/passionate about what he teaches. As long as you go to class and pay attention you should be good. TAKE Notes. Attendance is not mandatory but I would strongly recommend going because he moves kinda fast so if you miss 1 day you miss a whole chapter. All exams are quizzes are online including the final.

Professor Starr's HIST1301 is engaging and manageable. Lectures are detailed, but with useful repetition. Quizzes and exams cover lectures and readings, so unstuck study and active participation are key. Overall, a solid history class.

Professor Starr was amazing! He is very passionate about history and you pretty much take every test at home so it's hard to not fail. His test are very easy and almost half the questions are T/F or have a very obvious answer! You can't loose points for skipping class and his extra credit is so easy, it took my 93 to a 99! You will love him!

I absolutely loved his class. I took both of his history courses and it was an easy A. There was not a lot of work to do, but did have long lecture videos and article readings, which you will either love or hate. You have to watch the lectures and read, because he will ask you to answer questions and site from them.

It is lecture heavy and has quite some reading, but overall very easy! Instructions are very straightforward.

he likes to talk

Hella lecture material (talks alot) and some note taking depending on how well you retain information. Grading is simple and easy and you never have in-class tests, only online ones. Good professor
