very much into his own last name. anybody with a color for a last name will be singled out, but not in a good or bad way. feedback is useful, but he spends more time explaining the joke trying to get a laugh than he does actually telling the joke.

Excellent teacher, if you are not a slacker idiot who does not want to have to think. Challenging but well worth it!

The coolest person in St. George. His teaching style is awesome, he makes everything clear and understood. His ECON class changed my life.

He was the easiet A i have ever gotten all you had to do was write what he said to write... as for the grading you just had to go to his office and ask a few questions and he would tell you how to get an A... GREAT TEACHER... although the first day was intimidating... in the end it wasnt that hard of a class

Lot's and lot's of reading. Be prepared!

There is no doubt that it is a difficult class, but it is not impossible. Mr. Green expects exellence, which is not unreasonable. The key to his class is figureing out a study system. For instance the list of terms, take those to class and fill them out as he explains. Also make a study group and have each person specialize in a section & teach it

Partly hard but definitely entertaining. Just skim the chapters before the test and you'll do fine(also do the practice Q's from the book's website). All the test questions come form the manufacturer. Don't forget to find the answers to the quiz questions he posts on his site. This class is a no brainer if you get the quiz answers and study a bit.

This is a very difficult class, but you will learn a lot! Tests every 3-4 weeks out of the main text. Quizzes every other week out of 'taking sides'. Final and MT are on his lectures. My best advice is print out the Final Exam sheet and write any possible essays as they come up in class, then you'll have them done for the final and midterm.

I actually liked this professor. He definitely knows what he is teaching and how to teach it. One of my favorite things about him is that he is one of the few history teachers that actually does have a sense of humor, which I found quite amusing. The only students that didn't like him were the ones who didn't put out any effort in the class.

This guy really loves what he is doing and I feel that is very important in a prof. I studied more for this class than any other class I have ever taken, however managed to get a B in the class (one of the only B's I've ever gotton). Moral of the story this guy rocks but is extremly difficult!

Professor Green is awesome!! The class definitely requires a lot more effort than most other classes, and sometimes it can be hard to get a straight answer out of Green, but he definitely loves what he teaches and knows it really well! He's really funny and will love you if you laugh at his jokes and suck up major! Definitely not easy, but worth it

Mr. Green was the best teacher from dixie state. The way he taught allowed you to not only learn from the textbook, but also current issues in politics. His lectures were interesting and he never needed notes to teach. Make sure to go and meet him because he will give you tips on how to do well and also he is a nice guy to get to know.

very demanding class. He seems intimidating during lectures, but he is a very nice and accommodating man if you go meet with him during office hours. High use of the classroom textbook (which we don't really talk about in class) all of the outside reading (which is TONS) has very little to do with what he lectures on in class. Great class!

POLS 1100 is an intro class, but it's up in the 2000 level in its difficulty. "Taking Sides" is meant to be studied outside of class on your own, then a quiz with class discussion following. All in-class lecturing and reading from the other book, as well additional readings are what you are tested on. Essays are more demanding, but you learn more.

Lots of textbook use that is not covered in class. Reading is very intense and time-consuming. Tests are based solely on the book, and you can use the book when taking your tests. Papers are very easy to write, he tells you in class what should go into them. He normalizes the grades to it's easy to get an A. Overall a great teacher!

He is a great teacher. He really knows the information. His class is definitely not easy but its challenging and I found his exams to be actually fun. I studied for over a week on each of them but I learned so much. My favorite teacher at Dixie.

Difficult exams and quizzes, but this guy knows his stuff. I loved his classes I took from him and recommend him to anyone who actually wants to learn about American Government and Political Science.

How to pass Hist 1700 with Green. 1. Use his test prep to your advantage. 2. Pre-write all the Essays in individual lil blue books prior to taking the mid/final. 3. Read the book twice 4. Tape record his lectures since his mid/final are based on the lecture material ONLY! 5. Don't use material from the book on the mid/final, he will mark you down

Summer History 1700 was fun easy and lectured were fun due to the fact we would tie them with modern politics. Highly recommend him

Mr. Green is very passionate on his subject. He seems to be very well-read, because he REALLY knows what he is talking about. He's pretty punny too which is a plus. The debates in class are really fun. He's my favorite professor. I would definitely recommend him!

A few of my classmates thought the tests were hard, but all you have to do is write down what he tells you to write down. Really, it's that simple. I got a b+ and I don't like politics. He's a good teacher.

Professor Green is Legit. Most professors at Dixie teach like a high school teacher. Professor Green makes sure you know the material at a University level. Be sure you have the time to do the work, but if you study you will be rewarded fairly. Also, he is incredibly objective. You never can guess his personal beliefs or biases. Highly recommended.

I thoroughly enjoyed this class and I enjoyed Professor Green as a teacher. This class was one of the hardest I've taken but if you read the books and take notes in class you're almost guaranteed an A. He is very clear about what he wants from the midterm and final. He is helpful when you go into his office and is an overall cool guy.

Sometimes these comments make me wonder why on Earth so many kids at Dixie actually sign up to go to college. OH NO, he made me study and did not praise me when I was a complete failure for being lazy! DSU students, GROW UP OR DROP OUT, Green is an AMAZING prof and this was the best class/instructor I have had at Dixie!

Mr. Joe Green is extremely intelligent. He has majored in English and Political Sciences. His class is somewhat difficult but he means well and wants students to do well and participate in class discussions. I would take his course again.

Class is tough. go to every class. and take the prequizes. if you take it with a friend its easier. overall i wouldnt recommend him if you are looking for a easy class. its medium hard class. but he will help you. midterm and final are written essays. i never read a book its just for the quizzes but he has prequizzes you can take twice

Mr. Green is extremely intelligent and has clearly done extensive research on all subject areas he teaches. If you aren't interested in working hard in order to educate yourself then do not take this class. If you do all of the assignments and go to class, you will be able to succeed. Mr. Green is very specific on what he wants out of you.

Prof. Green knows his stuff and is eager to share that knowledge. The papers seem tough but he has an extreme abundance of resources and guides available for any of his classes. Those who complain of difficultylack of clarity are those who failed to use the resources provided. Take the help he offers and it is a cake-walk for a grade.

Mr. Green is a good teacher, and if you go to class every day you should do alright. However, there is a lot of reading and his tests are extremely hard. He does grade on a fairly generous curve though, and his lectures are interesting. Also, the class debates are fun.

He looks intimidating at first, but when you actually talk to him he's really nice. His lectures are full of interesting info and you will come out of the class knowing your stuff. As long as you follow his instructions, it's really difficult to get a poor graded. I liked this professor.

The directions for the papers literally give you the format for how you're supposed to write them. As long as you follow those, you'll be find. So easy a caveman could do it! Lectures are interesting. He REALLY knows what he's talking about. Make sure to take the practice quizzes for his tests.

He gives you the option to basically make up your midterm if you didn't study hard enough. Also, class debates were fun!

His class was challenging, but I learned more than I've ever learned in any other class. If your at college for an education, not just a piece of paper, professor Green is the way to go.

Good class and he obviously knows his stuff, but the class is really difficult. Midterm and final are from his lectures, weekly quizzes are from one textbook, and monthly tests are from another textbook. I would not recommend this class unless you're truly invested in working for your grade.

His grading seems harsh but you have to read the guidelines given and he breaks down exactly how he wants your essays formatted. You have to read and study but if you try, you will learn a lot! It's not an easy A by any means but his class has a lot to offer if you put in your work.

Yes, his class is difficult and you have to study and work for your grade, but Prof. Green might be the best teacher at DSU. His grading material is very clear. He is very invested in his work and really knows his stuff. He is funny and went to great lengths to make his curriculum. You will learn a lot from this class is you actually do the work.

Professor Green's class was challenging, but also liberating. I would say this is probably the hardest class I've taken in my major field, mainly because I wasn't familiar with International Relations what so ever. Professor Green made the topic interesting and engaging throughout the semester. Follow his instruction to the T and you will be fine.

His class is difficult- only if you dont go to class & take good notes. He is very intelligent, & he wants you to succeed. He tells you exactly how to take his midterm and final. He is fun to listen to & I loved the debates. You will need to read the book to do good on the tests in the testing center.

Great professor, really enjoyed the material and lectures. There was a good amount of reading, but nothing TOO crazy. Loved professor Green.
