Dr. Mcward is one of the best professors at Denison, especially in the PPA department. He is also a great professor for intro classes and engages the class through group work, activities, and group projects. You learn a lot in that class, and there are not that many assignments. If you have to take an intro course, PLEASE take it with him.Rate My Professors ↗
Andrew is great. Hilarious, caring, smart, all of the above. The class was graded entirely on three papers and two exams, although you could earn participation credit in the simulation and discussion sections to bump your grade up. Grading turnarounds are long, but not his fault (TAs). Great class, highly informative, very dense content.Rate My Professors ↗
Absolute baller of a prof. Lectures were super easy to pay attention to, papers were always on interesting topics, readings were sometimes tough to get through but they were more just supplemental to the lectures anyways. He's super helpful in office hours and really knows how to connect with students. AND he's easy on the eyes too??? 15/10.Rate My Professors ↗
