Christopher Klyza
We covered a lot of material in this class, and I find myself still applying what we learned to current events, topics, and news. Anyone interested in politics and why we are where we are today will find this class valuable. The class is mostly readings, discussions, and lectures with written in-class finals/midterms focused on ID's, topics, and events. I really enjoyed the class.
Professor Klyza is both enthusiastic and knowledgable about the subject matter. I love his lecture style, it is engaging and he likes to throw in jokes which makes it fun. There are a lot of books we covered during the semester and we discuss them in lecture.
This is course is one you take if you want to do public policy, no doubt, but it was still a fun course. Klyza is a great lecturer, a fair grader, and willing to help with all of your questions. Heavy reading, but all of the reading is discussed in the lectures.
