Daniel Fram
Prof. Fram makes big questions about power and justice between nations feel urgent. Discussions are engaging, readings are thought-provoking, and he pushes you to defend your views. would take this class again
The course was extremely interesting. Made me realize that I was interested in focusing my major on political theory/philosophy. Fram was definitely an eccentric character, but very engaging and enthusiastic about what he was teaching.
This class isn't all that difficult if you're willing to actually sit down and read the books closely. Lectures were useful for the discussion sections. There was a quiz on the readings each week, which was generally easy to pass if you did the readings. Sometimes he pulled niche questions, but nothing crazy. You do have to handwrite a paper that you then turn in and defend/discuss with your discussion group, which was probably my least favorite part of the class, but it wasn't awful. You need to do all of the readings to do well on the final. Professor Fram was a great professor and very enthusiastic about everything he taught, and he was willing to answer pretty much any question you had about anything related to the course. I would very likely take this course again, and I would take another class with him as a PoliSci major.
