Very nice professor, but taught in a way that made course material unengaging and uninteresting. Did all the required work for this class and came out having felt that I learned nothing of substance. Some of the assigned readings are good however, and do a much better job of teaching than him.

solidly voice based lecture. he is impressive with his knowledge on the subject matter. You must come to class as there is no online material and he covers alot, quickly. He is generous with final grades although the exams can be a bit tricky. However, if he wants you to remember something, he WILL emphasize it.

Dr. Sumida is very knowledgeable about his subject matter. Class consists of a Midterm and a Final and 10 quizzes which add to your final grade. The readings are imperative because they not only add to the lectures but cover details that he is going to make sure you know. Lectures are IMPERATIVE because there is no visual aids or power points, he simply lectures. Take home message: Go to lectures, do the readings and the tests, although intimidating, are extremely doable. Came out of this class learning more then I ever thought I would about military history.

Great professor, very smart and really wants you to get the info and understand the connections. He has experience and gives real life examples of what he or others have done and thus interesting. Read the books, go to discussion as it can help your final grade, and def go to class. Tests are a little long... but if you understand the material you will be okay.
