Review #1 / Course: POLI 2051 / Instructor: KENNY C
Great class and great professor. You don't necessarily have to go to every class as the course outlines are online however Professor Kenny explains the material more thoroughly in the lectures. 3 quizzes- he drops the lowest quiz grade, and 3 tests (with the last one being the final exam so the final is not cumulative). Study two or three hours before each test and you should get an A. Also Professor Kenny is really funny and gives great lectures.

Review #2 / Course: POLI 2051 / Instructor: KENNY C
Kenny is a great professor and runs a great class. Quizzes are based solely off of the bold words in the chapters. Tests are STRAIGHT from the review sheet. Enjoy this class.

Review #3 / Course: POLI 2051 / Instructor: KENNY C
dr.kenny is probably the best professor i've had at LSU. he knows the subject extremely well, but understands not everyone is as interested as he is (in the subject matter). therefore, he tries to make class enjoyable by telling jokes. grades are based off 3 exams, 3 quizzes (the lowest quiz grade is dropped) go to class, he gives extra credit for it sometimes and questions are mostly based off the lecture, and a little of the book.

Review #4 / Course: POLI 2051 / Instructor: KENNY C
Dr. Kenny was really funny and wanted all his students to do well in the class. The material was not super hard. In order to do well, go to class (he does many attendance checks), study notes and skim the book. His tests are so easy if you just look over the material and pay attention in class. He includes lecture outlines on moodle, which makes note taking even easier. Take if you want an easy A and cool teacher!
