Additional Comments |
This is an interesting course and Dr. Murphy is a really knowledgeable, charasmatic professor. The material can get a tad overwhelming, as there are many countries that you will cover for each test. Dr. Murphy got behind in our class, so our second one was a killer- too much information for just one test. I've heard that getting behind is a pretty recurring characteristic of this class, so be prepared.
Basically the class consists of learning the history, structure, proceedings, and other odds-and-ends about several governments in the world. Your grade is based on: 3 tests (1 of which is a non-cumulative final) and 2 papers (1 comparing 2 governments, 1 on a magazine article) It's pretty straightforward... its not hard, just mass amounts of material. Be ready to cram before a test, but other than that, it's a pretty laid-back class with a laid-back, funny professor.
