He is a very nice man and the only professor i've ever had who actually cares about his students. His class is very interesting and it is very easy to get an A if you study what he tells you to study for the test. He takes into consideration what the class wants and doesn't want.
Supper nice guy really clear and organized. It is easy to get an A if you go to all the classes and pay some attention.
Mr. Attorney Dupree is a very helpful man and exudes such potential and charisma, therefore, helping his students create a broader knowledge of the subject.
Just finished taking the Final for this course. Professor has wit. Its funny how its so easy to tell which teachers can make a difference in ones life..Obviously, after taking this teacher, you'll soon understand. Good stuff.
Mr. Dupree is probably the best teacher I've ever had. He's so cool, explains himself very well, and you can tell he really cares about his students.
It's not all his fault that this class is like repeating High School. He doesn't use the class time wisely. He spends a lot of time on current news events, but it's like reading the headlines of the newspaper only. You never really get the whole story or any history on the topic. Some material is covered in history and business law. Nice guy!
Very nice guy! easy to get an A in if you go to all the classes and pay attention.
The greatest teacher ever...Good sylabus in first place.Interesting topics throughout all the semester.Would explain anything to anyone.Very fair grader,perfect studyguides and the only thing u should do is showing up to class and you will do good.The teacher is incredible...
Easy to get an A if you show up and pay attention. Great and fun teacher.
Hes a strong conservative, although he wont admit it :) Georgia roots. Great guy.
Best teacher ever. Do not miss this guy. Bright, well educated (Stanford), and helpful. Loves to teach.......cares about students. You will get a great education.
Great teacher even if he's a peach state guy. Redeemed himself by going to Stanford. Cares about the students and if they are learning the topic. If you go to class, pay attention, then you'll get a good grade.
Great instructor!!
Terrific guy. Can't tell if he's liberal or conservative. But loves students, loves teaching, and is the best the school has to offer--bar none. Don't miss this class.
Old school teaching style. Go to class. Do the work. You'll learn a lot. Challenge him or show up late or talk in class or cut class and he'll eat you alive. But if you want to learn, there is nobody better. Very smart and very good. Loves students, loves teaching, and a good guy unless you cross him.
One of the best professors in COD. Highly recomended. Entretaining class and instructor. Smart guy. You don't even have to read the book if you don't miss the class because he'll make sure you understand everything! Really nice and fair. Love how he incorporates hot topics to his class, and creates interesting discussions.
The best. Great teacher. Loves students. Loves teaching. One hot topic per class. Always fun. Makes you think. No ScanTron exams...you do have to think and write.
Mid way through the semester, he is the best that I have had at COD or other colleges I've attended. Great speaker, enjoys teaching, keeps it real. Explains politics so that it is actually interesting. Should be teaching more classes but is a lawyer too. He's the top gun here.
Great teacher. I now understand history, government, and politics like never before. Teacher of the year. Top gun.
Very good teacher. Explains things in simple terms. You will completely understand politics, government, and the daily news after this class.
easy a. take this class
MR. Dupree !!!!!!!!You are the best teacher that I have ever had. Excelent personality. Excelent person in and out of the classroom. He does not hesitate to help in class or out of class. He kwnows the material and how to transmit it well. You must take this class with MR. Dupree.He cares for his class and students.He really makes a difference.
Dupree is an awesome professor! He really makes government exciting and interesting. The entire course consists of discussing current event and various topics from the book (although reading the book isn’t necessary). He keeps the class simple giving only three exams throughout the term, all while keeping the students engaged. Highly recommended!!!
Professor Dupree is the smartest, nicest, best teacher I have had. His summer school class is 4 nights a week and not one person dropped and almost nobody was ever absent. He is a great teacher. You learn a lot, every day!
Great teacher. Class not hard. 3 exams (1 is takehome).Exams mainly on notes handed out by proffesor (not on book). Definently take Dupree's class!
This has to be the greatest class at COD. Professor Dupree shows no political bias and allows students to have open debates about important issues. Three exams that are taken right from his notes so you dont even need to buy the book. Thanks for a great class.
Awesome Class
Prof. Dupree is the best. Bright, articulate, and passionate about government, teaching, and students. I wish he tought more classes. Attend class, don't be late, and sit back and learn from the best.
If you are looking for a great professor, look no further! I have never had a more inspiring professor! His classes are informative and fun with some GREAT class discussions. He makes the U.S. Constitution come alive! I give Stan Dupree an A+++!
I just started my last semester at C.O.D and I realize not all profs are like Prof. Dupree. I also wish more students would rate teachers on here to help us pick classes. Prof. Dupree was a great teacher. He is smart, helpful, and he is a lot of fun. Because of him I understand the president election now going on. I would not been ready to vote
MR.DUPREE WAS THE BEST TEACHER IVE HAD AT COD HIS CLASS MAKES EVERYONE WANT TO GET INVOLVED WITH THE SUBJECT AND REALLY GIVES YOU A GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF THE GOVERNMENT OF AMERICA
Professor Dupree is one of the best teachers ive ever had. HE made the class interesting, and best of all you don't have to take notes in his class because he hands out the notes. I learned a lot in his class, wish he would teach other courses.His class is not hard at all, and his tests are based on his notes, just study your notes and ull do fine
Mr. Dupree is probably the best teacher at COD. I anticipate going to each class. He's made me even more interested in the subject than I was before and has given me inspiration to pursue a career in politics (or related to politics), in which I was put down for before. I would recommend him to anybody. Participation required!
This class was so much FUN but also was it easy! I had fun learning about everything in his class. No need to write notes as he will provide them. Just attend class and enjoy his amazing lectures and that would get you an A!!! The man tells you what will be on the test so no need to stress! Join his class now!! No one teaches it better!!!
Stan was THE BEST teacher! i looked forward to going to his class each week. He is extremley smart and you will learn alot in his class. He teaches you what you need to know and more! I would take any of his classes!
Mr Dupree is the greatest. Coolest summer school class ever. Always fun and always interesting. Gets every student involved and teaches government in a way that makes you want to take more polisci classes. I think he is the best teacher at COD.
Dupree is a great instructor. Attendance is a must but well worth it. I fully recommend intro to government with Dupree. You will learn more then you ever expected.
Hes a very good professor. you do not need to read, easy A!!!!!!!!! take this class...he gives u a study guide, and mostly everything on that is on the test. recommend it.
Stan Dupree is AMAZING. Do yourself a favor and take this class. He's funny, interesting and incredibly intelligent. My favorite at COD. Notes are provided, no need to buy or read the book. Tests are a no-brainer if you pay attention and you will. You won't regret taking this class.
Stan is one of the best professors at COD. You will get a lot out of taking his class even if you're not particularly interested in politics. He's very fair and knowledgeable on his subject. Very cool guy!
hes a very good teacher!
Mr. Dupree is an AMAZING teacher!!! Very helpful and he explains things so that everyone in the class can understand it no matter what level you are at. My fav. teacher! The only thing I don't like is that I can only take him for one class (Unless I take Hist. 18).
Professor Dupree is the best!!!! I recommend him to anyone even a little interested in government and politics. He is so good at explaining things and makes it real. I love that he is so smart and takes the time to make sure every student gets it. He is going to teach history and I can't wait. THE BEST!!!! (and so much fun)
Mr. Dupree is the coolest. My girlfriend and I took it together at night and spent the rest of the night talking about class. Make sure you read the book, don't be late to class, and don't talk when he talks and you will do well. I would take him for every class if I had a chance. It was the first time I ever hated to see class end.
Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Great teacher. Great guy. Very smart. Very helpful. Loves to teach. Every class is fun and you learn so much. Makes learning more fun. I will always draw on this class when I think about our government. Professor Dupree is my new hero. Or at least when it comes to teaching.
This is a GREAT professor!! My husband and I took his early class that lasted 3 hours. He made the class go by fast because he was so knowledgeable and interesting. Just show respect by being on time and not talking while he is and you will find that it is an amazing class too.
Had Prof. Dupree last semester and now I see that he is teaching History and I cant get in!!! Checking out other profs and nobody has the ratings Mr. Stan has. He is so good, so smart, so helpful. Highly recommend him. Highly. Highly Highly recommend him. He is the coolest and best. Take his Poli Sci classes and you will never forget it.
Go to class and don't be late. he hands out notes so you don't have to write many down. easy A if you just study what he tells you to study.
Mr. Dupree, very intelligent and know his stuff,took a better interest in political science and decided to take his history class.Don't be late and study and you will get a good grade.
Professor Dupree I miss you already. :) Amazing class amazing teacher amazing all around. Come to LA with me and be my tutor. i love you. :) best class ever. really really good and you learn so much too.
Amazing teacher. He encourages discussion, which makes the class more interesting. He is always making jokes. You can tell he loves to teach. I took both classes he taught (Hist18,Polysci001) and I would take another if it were available. He makes the subject come alive. One of the best teachers at COD.
Dupree is a great teacher, I took his history class and learned a lot of things I didn't know before. He makes it easy to understand and passes out notes so you pay attention and listen. He makes sure the class is under control and jokes around so it never gets boring. Just don't be late and its a easy, fun class.
Prof Dupree is amazing and the funniest and smartest man I know. He makes history fun which is close to impossible in my book. I am going to take his political science class in the fall. Amazing man.
Best teacher at COD. Class discussions are awesome. He takes each side/view on topics and considers them. He provides all the notes you need, too. No homework, just make sure you read the book and come to class!
hes awesome. i learned more that i have in previous history classes. gudelunas is cool too but dupree is easier. i recommend for any class he teaches !
Dupree is awesome. Had him for PS1 this past semester SP10. Never had a better experience with an instructor. Very knowledgeable, very friendly. His discussions are interesting and he always takes an unbiased equally weighted approach to partisan topics- the exact approach needed in a learning environment. I wish he was teaching history in Fall '10
Just ended the best semester and best class ever. Professor Dupree is so good and so caring. Every student feels special. Dupree is smart and makes you learn. I am no longer an "idiot". (You have to take the class to get it) lol Go Dupree
I am in summer school in San Francisco wishing every day that my teacher was as good as Prof. Dupree. Not. Prof Dupree is so bright so much fun & full of laughs and he makes learning easy & fun. I dont think he is an easy teacher as much as just making anything he teaches seem easy. Without him I am reconsidering my PolSci major. Love him.
Great professor!!! Zero note taking because he says people can't give him their full attention while writing notes. He gives you printed out notes each class. No surprises on the exams. Exams come directly from notes he gives out. Plus you'll learn the material.
Had Dupree for World Civilizations. Great teacher, truly. He comes off a bit high and mighty at first, but he just wants to be treated with respect. His notes are extremely helpful and he makes an already fairly easy subject entirely understandable.
This professor practically changed my life. I never voted and I never paid attention. Now I am a news junkie and political junkie and I am making my husband the same way. Best teach in my life. Best at COD for sure.
This professor practically changed my life. I never voted and I never paid attention. Now I am a news junkie and political junkie and I am making my husband the same way. Best teach in my life. Best at COD for sure.
I could write forever about professor dupree. he is the coolest, the smartest, the best in every way. loved watching the 3 hottest chicks in class bring him his sweet tea every day, but it was all fun. great guy, great class. makes history seems so real. just don't be late or absent and do not disrupt class.
Great teacher. The best at COD. Take anything he teaches. He is excellent.
Great teacher!!! Nice Guy!!! Be on time, keep up with class, don't interrupt him while he's talking, and don't miss classes and you will do great!
Mr. Dupree is amazing. Great teacher. So clear, and so helpful. Am now going to take his history class. I cant wait. Such an amazing teacher and amazing man.
Dupree is the nicest, most awesome, understanding EASIEST teacher ever...actually made history interesting. you dont even need the book..he makes notes for you, goes over them in class. just study the notes for the test and you will ace the class
Amasing teacher and an amazing man. Helpful caring passionate about teaching loves students and you can tell that he gets excited when students are learning. He does not tolerate any distractions and will toss you if you dont take class seriously. You cant get better than Dupree if you honestly want to learn. Take all 3 of his classes.
Awesome. Incredible. Great guy. Fun class. Is in complete control of the class. You have to work, come to class, and it's fantastic. Can't wait to take his other classes.
It was a great pleasure, and a great honor, to be a student in Professor Dupree's Business Law class. His teaching style, combined with his etiquette and personality, made the class material easier to understand and much more enjoyable. He's a great asset to our university. Professors like him give schools like our a great reputation.
Great teacher. He makes the class and subject very interesting. I took his class at Cal-State San Bernardino at the Palm Desert campus and loved it. He requires attendance but don't worry, you'll love to be at every class. :) :) Highly recommended. Even if you don't need any of his classes, just take one for the "experience".
Just had to say it. This is the best that COD has to offer. Amazing man, amazing teacher. Take all his classes and learn to love to learn.
Apparently, Stan doesn't even need a review from me! Honestly though, he's a fantastic teacher. The class is simple and easy, but still interesting. For those not really into politics(like me), you will be after his class. Show up, show up on time, and be respectful and the class will fly by. The fun lies in participation, and sharing opinions.
It seems that it has all been said. Best professor in the valley. Never be late, be respectful, work hard and learn learn learn. A great guy.
I just finished the best class of my college so far. Amazing teacher. Just truly amazing. I loved it and I love him. Every teacher ought to have to take teaching lessons from Dupree.
Great teacher. Great guy. Makes History fun. Had him for PS1 3 years ago and he is the best at making it interesting. Book, attendance, and paying attention are all a must, but worth it. You really learn a lot.
Amazing teacher. Lots of fun. Always "up" and always helpful. Very smart and very much into helping you learn. Not a class for slackers though. He wont put up with talking, phones, absence, etc.
Coolest teacher EVER! he may seem hard at first, but just be a good student and he will totally be your best friend. I took him twice and aced both classes and got to know him pretty well. you will not regret taking any of his classes!
He is wonderful!! He wants you to pass and he goes out of his way to get to know each an every student. He wants your success just as much as you do yourself. Take this teacher but understand you will be expected to meet him halfway.
Mr. Dupre is an incredible teacher. I took his class, my sister took his class, and now my mom is going to take his class. He makes you think and teaches you to love learning. When we took his class all we did at home was talk about what all we learned. I hope I know Mr Dupre foreve. Just don't come late and never talk when he talks.
Very knowledgeable, clear, and concise. Very helpful and truly cares. Awesome prof
Amazing professor!Very helpful and knowledgeable. It is also great that he has a legal background. Defiantly would recommend all his classes. Just don't be late!
Super easy class, gives you notes and you just chill all class and listen to great and interesting lectures. The guy is really smart and is very good at sharing both sides of everything. So glad I took this class. Show up and show up early every class period he hates tardiness and people absent
Best Professor i have ever gotten in my life. I had a learning experience in this class. Every time i get out of the lecture i feel so smart all of a sudden. Professor likes the improvement in the test scores. He is willing to help out anyone in the class and answer all the questions. i am really glad i got in his class. One word "Awesome!!!"
Add his class and see for yourself. you will see a significant change in your intellect. Like me, you will be eager to learn more. Looking forward to get enrolled in Hist 17 with the same prof. my advice: just don't be late, don't miss the class and pay attention to the lecture and you'll do great in the class. I learned a lot in his class.
Dupree is certainly one of the best professors I've had, he makes politics interesting and teaches things with an unbiased view. I definitely would recommend him, just don't be late! I'm looking forward to taking his history class next semester(:
Great teacher with mountains of information and insight. Defiantly recommend
Great teacher! Very informative in history but life! I took him for Political Science 001 also.
Great professor! Class was interesting and informative. If you want to learn and become interested in government/politics, take Professor Dupree! The class was never boring!
Absolutely loved this class! Dupree did an amazing job making the class interesting and thoroughly teaching the material. His lectures are never boring and he really opens your eyes to the world of government. He also shares both sides of everything and you will never know which he prefers. Take this class or you are missing out!
Most amazing learning experience of my whole life. There cant be a better professor anywhere. I am now registered to vote and I listen to the news all the time. Dupree walks on water. lol
I love Professor Dupree. Love him. Love him. Best class ever. History was finally fun and now I am trying to get in to his polisci classes and they are full. He is the smartest and most caring teacher ever. I cant believe the semester is over. I bet we all miss him. Dupree rocks. Oh by the way don't be late don't be absent and do the work.
Amazing teacher! I learned so much from his Political Science class. I love the involvement he has in lectures i.e. specific debates/news/etc. His lectures aren't boring, he makes them lively. I strongly recommend this teacher for anyone attending COD, you won't be disappointed. Love him.
So annoying that everything good that can be said about Professor Dupre has been said. He is the coolest guy on the faculty and the most helpful. He is very interesting. Loves teaching. Loves the students that want to learn. Super smart and never a boring minute. Make sure to take all 4 or 5 of his classes. I will miss him
Best teacher I have ever had by far!!!!!!!!!! He cares about his students and puts dedication in helping them succeed. I can not fathom how amazing of a person and instructor he is. He is the type of teacher that really truly inspires you and motivates you. His drive and personality engage you in his lectures. Awesome guy!
Best teacher ever. He gives you the notes for his classes so you can relax and listen. All his tests are of off the notes. He is passionate in what he teaches. I also had him for history 17, same thing. If you can or have the chance choose him. He is the best teacher you will ever have. One thing he does not tolerate and that is tardiness.
Wonderful professor! Kind, caring and brillant! I wasn't into politics at all, never understood the importance of politics, but now, I'm really into the topic and encourage others to "rock the vote". He's really a great guy, and cares about his students and loves what he does, which is important.
A very good teacher, if you take him you will not be dissapointed. Go to class with an expansive mind and a drive to learn and you will end up fine. Stan is an amazing professor, do yourself a favor.
Best there is. That simple. Nobody better or even as good.
OMG!!!! I am the 100th commenter. Now I cant remember what I was going to write. Great teacher. Incredible. Made even summer school amazing. 100th!!!! lol
Professor Dupree is an incredible professor. He makes his classes fun and interesting. Thanks to him I now understand politics. The exams are fair as long as you study. I strongly recommend him.
AMazing teacher and amazing mna. Great at it all. Makes you want to learn. You have to come to class and you have to work hard. Read the book and study and you will learn so much. He is the best.
Mr. Dupree is a very interesting professor. He always knows what his talking about and he is very handsome you want to listen. I have taken two of his classes and he is a fair teacher. He doesn’t like tardiness nor cellphones. Over all he is very smart and excellent teacher. Love him.
He is an AMAZING teacher, very helpful and understanding. He's one of the best teachers ever. I highly recommend him!
Prof. Dupree is by far the best instructor I've ever had. He's incredibly intelligent and makes class interesting. You will not regret enrolling for his course!
Easiest class ever. Just show up to class on time because he hates it when you're late and don't text in class, he will put you on the spot. A lot of times class ends early. Tests are super easy, just study the notes he gives and you will get an A.
Great teacher. Great guy. Crystal clear. Show up, on time, every time, without your cell phone, do the work, read the book, and sit back and enjoy the lecture since he gives you his own notes. Really awesome dude.
Amazing teacher. Take all his classes. You learn so much and he is so good. The best
I have been in school for a while, specially since I'm an older student. I have to say that Mr. Dupree is one of the best professors i have had since i began school. i learned a lot in his class, he knows what he is talking about and likes what he does. One tip, never miss his class, and shut you phone off, trust me you will appreciate it.
By far, the BEST professor I have ever had!
I was a little nervous about this class, but the professor really made a difference, I'd recommend him to anyone!
Awesome class. Great teacher. The best ever. Will miss this class and Dupree. But Graduating!!!! Dupree is just so cool and so much fun and so smart! I learned a lot about politics and I finally understand elections!
best teacher ever!! i love him , he makes the class very excited and super easy !! if you need a political science class take it with him !!!
Great professor. Completely unbiased when it comes to politics, not like many libtard professors who try to brain wash their young brainless students coming fresh out of high school with no knowledge of politics. If you really want to learn about politics, take Prof. Dupree. You will get educated in his class.
Wonderful man, wonderful teacher. Awesome, amazing, helpful, caring. Very smart and loves to teach. None of the usual political bias and brainwashing--straightforward. Dont ever bring your phone to class and dont think you can talk to others while he is talking and you will do just fine. Best professor on campus by far.
Prof Dupree is an AMAZING teacher. His style of teaching should be in every class. He brings notes printed so students can listen to him with full attention. He gives you everything that will be on exams, no excuses not to pass them! He truly makes class fun. I learned A LOT!! He has no tolerance for cell phones, just keep it off during class :)
GREAT teacher, BEST teacher at COD!!!! He makes sure the students learn the subject and makes it fun and interesting. He is strict but that just means he has the best interest in his students. LOVED this class!!!!
Great teacher!!
I LOVE DUPREE!!!!!!! he is by far one of the best professors I've ever had. I'm not so into history but he made me really like it. He truly loves to teach, he is an AMAZING human being. I took 3 classes with him and really enjoyed each and everyone of them.
