This teacher was absolutely awesome. He was always there if you needed to talk to him outside of class whether it be class related or not. He was more than willing to help you out with your grade if you are willing to put forth effort as well. The textbook wasnt used much because most of his lectures came from what he knows. Great teacher.

LOTS of papers--one per day since I took him for Maymester. The "group papers" are confusing at first, but you're only graded on your part. Very interesting lectures; he speaks well but some may have a problem with his accent. One out-of-class project required. He made a rather boring (IMHO) class fun.

He was a good teacher. I found his personality to be one of a kind, some controversial debates made it fun but on the other hand there were a lot of times where he attempted to have class discussion and the class didn't speak up leading to awkward silences. He knows what he is talking about. Take his class but SPEAK UP PLEASE i wish my class did

One of the most enlightening teachers. He will test your ability to argue and if you can cope with opening your mind to new ideas, you will benefit greatly from this class. If you listen in class and engage in conversation you will not regret the knowledge you obtain. Those who says he does not explain what he expects are probably just lazy.

He comes off as straight forward and blunt, but it's really just a part of who he is. I really enjoyed his class and him as a person! His way of thinking and his lectures open your mind to think about everything in a different perspective. There are group projects as well as two tests. He is organized and clear on instructions. Work hard Easy A.

WASTE OF TIMEclass attendance is mandatory but was graded on maybe two days' worth of class notes, the rest is reading 500 pages of textbook. During class, he inserts his OPINION on a variety of subjects: art, religion, history, etc. that we would never be tested on. I left the class still wondering what the humanities was and was insulted at times

Professor Walker was one of the most knowledgeable professors I've ever taken. I took his Humanities class in Fall 16 semester. He gives very interesting lectures, although the tests are mostly based on the text, so make sure you read. He challenged the class to strive for greatness but it will not be an easy course if you don't apply yourself.

Dr. Dale is really great if you're actually going to put effort in. If you are hoping for a Blow off class and a prof that hands out 100's then this isn's where youll find it. READ THE TEXTBOOK, participate in class, and get to know Dr. Dale. You will love the class.

okay he is knowledgeable but you NEED to read the book or you will not pass. Class lectures are not on tests, but he takes attendance every day right when class begins. Caring professor 2 group projects and 3 tests DEFINITELY makes you work hard for that A

If you choose to take Dr. Walker, be ready for group projects and lots of reading outside of class. This class will require reading from the book every week and other papers that will pop up on the hard tests he gives. He does not use canvas which makes it more challenging

Makes you work for the A. Make sure to read the book!! The mid term and final rely on it. The chapters are seriously over 75 pages each and the exams rely on it. There are three group projects that are 15-20% of your grade each. Get a good group and you'll be fine.

Dr. Walker is a really good professor. Try not to get offended easily because he sometimes says some things that might be offensive. His class is really group-work oriented but its not too bad. And you really need to read and do the reviews for the test because the tests are really hard but its not so bad if you study before hand.

Awesome teacher, super nice and super interesting lectures! His sense of humor and stories are funny and keeps the class from getting boring. I got an a in the class from just studying the review guides he gives out and not reading the book itself. :) i recommend you taking him if you have the chance!
