adogamhe is a real nice guy and he definitely knows what hes talking about, he brings everyone into the discussions in class but he is VERY hard to understand, his accent wouldn't be that terrible if he didn't mumble to go with it.the assignments are way too hard for a 100 level class, but wouldnt be terrible if he actually explained anything, he gives us a syllabus and doesnt follow it at all and just expects you to know what to do and when to do, nice guy but i would never take one of his classes again due to boring myself to death and the difficult nature of all the assignments (all papers)

If you like watching videos, you'd think this class would be great... every class involves watching some sort of video. Unfortunately, the entire class seems to be irrelevant and pointless to show up to. Unfortunately he has a fascist 2 misses allowed attendance policy. What really gets me is that he does not answer his UWW email addres... EVER. His office hours are one hour per week and the syllabus doesn't list due dates. So if you miss something in class you have to chase him down to ask about it, don't ever expect him to read how you couldn't show up to class for x or y reason or to answer your questions about an assignment. Honestly, I'm never really sure what my assignment is, or when it's due, because he talks about it once and then never mentions it again until its due. He's hard to understand and his class discussions aren't interesting and seem mostly pointless. You will get a kick out of him though, he's a weird guy. And as far as I can tell there are no exams in the class. However, I would NOT reccomend him as a professor, find a better way to get your diversity credit.
Positive:
