Button always made us laugh during his Minorities Studys class and his lectures/resources (videos, songs, stories) helped me retain the information he was feeding us. I learned a lot about the structure of our nation and world market in this class through the eyes of minorities. I got exactly what I expected and more from this class!

Prof. Button has helped change my view not only on how a class should be taught,but also on how I live my own life. He would prefer to not take grades at all,and just supply the information within his mindblowin lectures,but the online portion is mandatory. It's worth it though,he is the best teacher I have ever had and probably ever will. Take it.

Professor Button is very knowledgeable and very active with his students but in a good way. He helps the class relax so there is the right amount of interaction. I would highly recommend this Professor to any student that has an opportunity to attend his class. Go to class you will not be disappointed.

Everything is online basically, so as long as you have the book you will pass. Coming to class is a good way to make sure you get an A because he randomly picks extra credit days and favors those who asks questions and participates. Be ready to hear sad stories and see cute pictures of his kid.

Button was an amazing professor!! While attendance is not "mandatory" I would highly recommend going! As long as you read the textbook for the quizzes and tests, it is very easy to make an A. The class is only boring if you sit on your phone the whole time, try and participate! Button is passionate about his subject and not your average teacher!

Unlike some of the other instructors who tried to be loud and obnoxious for the sake of getting attention, Mr. Button really did do his best to make sure we're following and understanding the subject. He's the right guy who does what he does best and it really did pay off. I really did enjoy my time and am glad that I made the right choice.

I'm writing this rating for Professor Button's Colloquium class. It sucks, flat out, and it doesn't count as credit for anything. Literally!

Button is legit. Makes you think beyond a classroom. One thing to be prepared for is he believes the class is the class and the book is the book; the negative with that is if you dont do well with tests and exams you will have to work for it. The positive is the class is fun and you do soak up more then words on book and statics you soak up life.

Dr. Button is the best example I've seen of what separates a good K-12 teacher from a good college proffesor. Instead of being a dominant but encouraging benevolent tyrant, his class is a mutual collaboration.

Doctor Button, a very different type of teacher. He loves to share his thoughts about the world we live in. He's one that's not affaid of a challenge. It's him against the world. He loves his daughter and loves teaching her how to live life with victory. Very serious when it is caused to be. Dry sense of humor but has humor. Loves peanut butter.
