Took D.K. at night,...makes you a little sleepy sometimes, but he definitly tries to liven it up. Made an A in the course, but I did have to put some effort in to it. He gives test bank questions for each chapter before the test. They are hard to find sometimes but its worth looking them up, as they basically are identical to the Q's on the test.

Klepper is a nice guy and the classes are very enjoyable, but is not very clear when teaching. Little of what he teaches in the lectures goes to the tests, and the tests are the only grades apart from a couple of quizzes which, again, come up as confusing. Would recommend to buy the textbook, but you can borrow it at the library too.

If you want an A in his class, just make sure you read the chapters and study the practice quizzes. His lectures don't really go anywhere, but at least he makes them enjoyable. Klepper's hilarious, I would definitely recommend taking him for this course.

Overall my Favorite Professor! It is greatly shown that he loves what he does, so much that he gets carried away on irrelevant topics at times. Supposedly the textbook is required, but the tests were mainly made up from his lectures. He is also a little unorganized so its easy to get mixed up on due dates. Easy A and is also pretty funny

An excellent professor. Eccentric, funny and overall knowledgeable. Pay attention on class, take notes and don't be afraid to ask! He can get you an easy A if you put a little effort.

Prof. Klepper was an amazing teacher! his material was very easy to understand and his tests were relatively easy to take! i highly recommend him to anyone who enjoys learning about the history of many different things. No homework, but there are a few papers to write and they are not difficult at all.

He is a funny guy. He comments on his own questions/statements but it just shows how knowledgeable he is. Lectures heavy but interesting. 3 in class assignments and 3 tests. Do not trip about the tests trust me, they are easy As you just gotta use your head on how to make it easy.. hint* hint*... Gives a study guide w/ key terms that you fill out.

Hes a great professor, with great lectures, but be sure to read the book because he will skip over important content that you will be tested on. Only 3 tests, plus a final based on those tests.

Klepper was very funny and nice, but his lectures are all over the place and often out of order. You will have to rely on the textbook for information. Very few assignments outside of tests, so all you really have to do outside of his class is read out of the book.

As a person I really liked Prof. Klepper, I just found his class frustrating. He's a cool guy and really funny, but if you don't have the textbook and learn a good part of the material on your own you won't do well. His lectures are kind of unstructured and rambling so it's hard to take good notes in my opinion. Again, liked him but not the class.

I don't really understand some of the reviews that graded him poorly. While he is scatter-brained and will often go on long tangents, his lectures are still pertinent to the test and a good half of the questions will be from the lecture. He is quite funny and only gives a few test and an essay. Take if you are interested in history and need an A.

One of the best professors I've ever had. You have to show up to his lectures to pass, but you will want to show up since his lectures are interesting. Definitely write notes, because you are graded on 3 tests, 1 paper, and 2 quizzes.

Klepper is interesting. I was totally confused by the teaching style, kind of an all over the place story time that you have to soak into your brain or else the tests are very hard. No power points, just lots of scribbles on the board. He does want you to pass though. Try to look back in the book cause those lectures really didn't do it for me.

Klepper is literally the best professor ever! I took him for EUH2000 last semester and took him again this semester. Sometime's he repeats himself, but when he does usually it's going more in-depth about the topic. I highly suggest taking his classes.

Okay so Klepper himself is super cool, 10/10 would recommend just listening to him talk; he's super knowledgable and tells dad jokes! Other than that, there are questions on tests that he just does not talk about in class. This goes for hum2230 as well. Use the textbook! Really try to pay attention and you'll pass, it's not a difficult course!

Prof. Klepper is nice and very caring and smart but if you want a concise path between homework, quizzes and tests don't take this class. I like order ,precision but didn't get it here which was frustrating at times. Prof. Klepper was more than fair and very nice. Listen in class read u will be fine..

He is very knowledgable about the subject and very good and conveying that knowledge to the students. He does have a tendency to go off topic at certain points, but he always gets back on topic before things go too far awry.

Took this 6-week course online and it was pretty self explanatory and easy to navigate throughout the semester. 30 question quizzes with a discussion each week, and two papers. He grades the papers pretty thoroughly, but provides good feedback. I would definitely take this class again.
