Average
Prof. Hughes isn't so bad, he's actually very patient, but he's disorganized. He misplaces a document one day and then finds it the next. It is simple to pass his class because he will direct you through your essays, but he has the ability to change his mind about the papers at any time, particularly with the FCAs. Class wasn't bad at all, but I wouldn't recommend if you want clear instructions.

Awesome
Professor Hughes is amazing. His stories were funny. He's very energetic and sometimes a bit over the place with his lectures. It's understandable though, he just has a lot to talk about. He had us write about four essays throughout the class and a final research paper. There were two drafts for each then a final draft. He'll provide good feedback for those as well. I would take him again, his stories are hilarious.
