Too bad he is the only teacher to choose from to take this class. Really, this class isn't that useful and even though he seems to enjoy teaching it, he is just an ok teacher.

Huge "servant leadership" project through out semester. Don't put it off till last minute, meet w/your group often, pick something your passionate about and you'll do great. Tests are difficult, try not to mix up different theories in essay questions. Can get a B fairly easily, difficult to do well enough on tests for an A. Boring lectures at times
