awesome teacher, makes the class so much better

I liked his class...had some funny things to say, and some thought provoking things to say, and this was a geography class! some people get distracted, but I thought he was a very good teacher.

Not bad, not great, if you get offended easily don't take his class. Speaks from one side and not open to disagree-ors. Very easy and definitely bearable! SOme funny jokes and interesting facts.

He's the best professor I've had at Longwood! His course is informative and thought-provoking. Slackers, nuckleheads, and kids unwilling to learn should stay away (which he'd appreciate). He's funny, sarcastic, and subversive; cute, too. Helpful website.

Nice guy, very funny. The class isn't very hard as long as you go... tests are pretty easy if you study and make your index card. Class sometimes goes by slow but he knows how to wake people up with a good joke.

Very interesting class. I learned alot. Nearly peed my pants laughing when he talked about drugs! Gives outlines, reviews, and Power Point lectures on his website. Explains everything clearly if you listen. Has great stories. His wicked grin is cute!

He is by far my favorite teacher at this school!!!! Extremely intelligent and very nice once you get to know him. I wish he taught all my classes, because I am sure he could make even Calculus interesting!!! Thanks Dr.H!!!!

Dr. Hardin was one of my best professors. Sure he's sarcastic and opinionated, but he's up-front about it and funny as hell. Show him YOU care and there's nothing he won't do for you. World traveller + evil sense of humor = HOT!

<3 my class. He is very intelligent and expects the same from you. All the facts are historically accurate. Funny, interesting. Only hard if you dont go to class and dont study. Provides all oppurtunities to do well. Check his website and see!

I thought his class was VERY interesting. Go to class and pay attention and you'll be fine. You don't need to buy the textbook.

Dr. Hardin will treat you with respect if you treat him with respect. You'll learn a lot in class that isnt in the book. Don't come to class if you're not going to pay attention...

very interesting lectures,study for tests and quizes and you'll be fine!

He's a good teacher and keeps the class interesting when he really gets into his lecture. His tests were a breeze and quizzes weren't bad at all. As long as you are respectful to him, he will be respectful to you. I would recommend him over other geography teachers.

Dr. Hardin is one of the best teachers I've had at this school! Whoever said that his class is really hard probably didn't go to class. He does everything on powerpoint, gives you study guides, and has everything online. Dr. Hardin is fantastic!!

Dr. Hardin is awesome! All these people that hate him because he makes fun of religion are way too sensitive. He's a really interesting teacher and he warns you ahead of time that he's not convinced about the validity of religions. Maybe respect his beliefs before you want him to respect yours.

Dr. Hardin is a very well rounded professor, he made the class humorous as well as helpful. The most helpful tool in this course was the fact that he related the lectures to every-day life instead of just babbling for an hour.

It's sad when you're as business major in your senior year, and the only class you look forward to going to is Dr. Hardin's geography class, which is not a requirement for my graduation. I have found his class to be very interesting and fun.

AWESOME! He loves the topic and teaches it so well. I loved his class and wish I could re take it or fit another of his classes in my schedule!

One of the most interesting teachers I've had here at Longwood. Dr. Hardin is a great professor and the only thing you need to do in order to do well in his class is go to class. He's very interesting and you can tell he loves the material he's teaching. I recommend him.

Loved the class!!! Dr. Hardin is the best!!! I learned so much and would definitely take another class from him!!!

This guy knows his stuff, an makes it interesting for his students as well. He incorporates technology and visual aids into his lesson plan and puts an emphasis on acquisition of the subject matter.

This class was the easiest A i've ever gotten. If you can build a small knowledge base, you can basically bull s h i t your way through his class. Aside from that, it is actually fun and interesting too. Know how to build a website before taking this class (nothing too complex).

Dr. Hardin is one of the best professors at Longwood. He's a really awesome person. I learned so much in his class and am definitely taking another class with him next semester. His class is fairly easy if you go to the lectures and fill out the note card for tests.

awesome....learned more in this class than any other.

The class was very simple and it made geography not so boring. I especially enjoyed his religion lectures. Awesome guy

he's a fulbright scholar... the guy's smart.

I liked this class because Dr. Hardin is really passionate about what he does and loves teaching-he made me want to go to class just to hear what he says--he's very intelligent! Tests are kinda hard, but it wasn't a boring class (like i thought it might be)

Made things fun and interesting, allowed note cards for tests. I recommend him for anybody.

I liked this class, I thought it was interesting. His tests were difficult, but you got to use both sides of a notecard which really helps. He is helpful if you see him outside of class. He taught the material really well, and If I had time I would deffinatly take another class with him!

Hardin is very enthusiastic about the material and a fairly easy professor to have as long as you review the material prior to exam day.

He is very enthusiastic about his class and he makes it fun, but his test can be kind of hard, and thats all their is for a grade in the test, besides attendence.

Great Teacher, he is very adamant about what he teaches. Tests are pretty easy as long as you take good notes and study a little before hand. Only down side is he is very liberal and will preach to his class for 20 minutes about his liberal ideals. But aside from that take his class

Don't ever skip his classes! His tests are strictly material he teaches in lecture and he covers A LOT each class. Very good teacher!

He's extremely smart and he's passionate about geography- which makes his class really interesting. The tests are hard, but all the material comes straight from the powerpoints and lectures.

wasnt wat i expected of a basic geography class. go 2 class or u miss alot. tests r from powerpoint n lecture. multiple choice. study guide. brings politics into class a lot which annoys me. its a goegraphy class not poly sci. but overall i like the class. he did try n put 2 much on exams though study! and review notes daily to really understand it

Learned a lot!

Great teacher... Although his test are difficult with picture identification, they mainly come off the power points. Great teacher, I'm just a poor student. =(

Study and take good notes and this class is easy

Love how bad reviews come from students who don't know what course they're in?? Dr. Hardin does talk about politics - it's called political geography. Best explanation of the Electoral College ever! If you're so smart you can sleep through his class, why aren't you at a better school? Great professor. Very interesting, passionate, and entertaining.

Dr. Hardin is one of the best professors at Longwood. This class has to work for both Liberal Studies and other majors too, so he has to do a balancing act. His attention to VA SOLs helped me alot. Incredibly helpful and friendly if you get to know him and he's not in too much pain. Great range of knowledge-was he in the CIA or something?

Dr. Hardin is the best. Of all classes I have taken throughout High School and College, his has been most relevant and relatable in my life. He is great at capturing attention and his teaching style keeps kids interested. Strongly recommend.

One multi-stage project, non-timed online quizzes, and a handful of tests. Upside is there's less to do than average, downside is your grade depends on those few things. Gives extensive lectures and doesn't really interact with the class much, and throws his own views into some of his tangents, but he knows his geography. Good teacher overall.

Second class with Hardin. He teaches and grades consistently in all his courses, so once you know how he works, things will go smoother. Get all the non-timed online quizzes done, and bring a notecard with lots of notes on it for every test. He posts the powerpoints he uses in lectures online, so download all of those. Show up and pay attention.

He is tough, but fair. Buddy up to some students in the class because you'll want to vent and a study group is going to be really helpful. Write EVERYTHING down.

Professor Hardin. very interesting fellow, he is a really nice professor and grades fairly. his final paper seems like a lot but once you really start working it flies by. He tells you everything that will be on the exams and teaches in a slow easy to understand way overall it was easy credits and a GPA booster, highly recommend!

Class is very easy. You need the textbook for reading quizzes. He gives out extra credit, and will curve the exams. He tells a lot of stories in his lectures which are good, but can get off track. Would highly recommend taking if you need this class for a requirement.
