Okay, so I took this class "Does Democracy Have A Future?" I thought it was going to be interesting, I'm a government major, etc. Well, this class is awful. The topics are interesting, but Ward is so dry and boring. I found myself borderline tears in numerous lectures. If it is possible I will never EVER take a class with Ian Ward.

Professor Ward is a great speaker and presents himself as a well-defined expert in the field. Although I am rarely interested in politics, Ward did find essays that presented very interesting perspectives, sometimes long, but interesting nonetheless. Classes are generally not boring or dry, and Ward moves at a comfortable pace. The only negative thing I have experienced was an attempt to show up to office hours and he was not there. I did not hold it against him as he had a meeting that day that limited the time he was in his office, so I assumed the reason involved that, and I'm sure that it was probably the only office time he had missed.
