John Valadez
University of Wisconsin - Whitewater
Department:
Political Science
Professors: Respond to evaluations by creating an account
Dr. Valadez is......strange. He's super old, cant see for shit. Couldnt hear you if you were speaking through a bullhorn and cant stand up for more than 5 minutes. Its funny really to watch his geriatric antics in class (which is why I gave him an A for coolness), but the class itself is pretty worthless. Its an easy A, but you'll probably lose an IQ point or two just from being around him for a semester.
Positive:
Negative:
Notes/lecture is confusing
Lacks enthusiasm in the classroom
His Ethnic Politics class was really boring but also really easy
Positive:
Good professor.
I would recommend this professor
Is interesting/entertaining/funny
Shows a great knowledge of subject matter
Negative:
You see (he really can't), Prof. Valadez's classes are very easy. The challenge comes in staying awake. Don't worry if you are sitting a few rows back and pass out. I estimate his line of clear vision at about 2-3 feet.

Negative:

Needs to involve students in class discussions

Professor does not relate to students
Atttendance is a must! He gives ten extra credit points just for showing up to every class. He is incredbily boring and tends to ramble. You dont learn much but he is an easy grader. As long as you do the D2L discussions and do decent on the exams (which are online so you can use notes) the class is easy. I have like an A+. I advise bringing your laptop to class though so you dont fall asleep.
