Very very good teacher for an otherwise boring class (Texas State&Local Gov't) - He made the class interesting and is a very funny and intelligent guy. He is an asset to the college and it's too bad he's an adjunct (I think). Highly recommended if you are a liberal student interested in government

US Gov flipped class: enjoyed going to class! Great lectures, participation optional but enjoyable, easy writing assignments that make you think, easy tests. Going to S.I. sessions once or twice will get you an A on the test, period. Very little studying or reading outside of S.I. sessions. Take it!

Dr. Seago was very clear with reading schedules and grading, and reminded us every week of deadlines. Although it was fast paced, Dr. Seago made the course very easy to do well in!!!
