Prof. Sansom's class isn't really bad at all. You might just have to accept the fact that you don't care much about the discussions. You are graded based on participation, daily quizzes, and your best three out of four papers. He's isn't a bad guy and you'll really know which side he stands with in arguments. It's actually a pretty easy class with him.

Prof. Sansom is one of the most personal profs I've ever had. He will ask you to write papers about a dense material but he never shames anyone who doesn't understand. He's available during office hours and he's flexible on meeting otherwise! I would really want to take him again.

Professor Sansom was amazing. He's one of the smartest people in the world, but there is not an ounce of pretentiousness in him. The course material is heavy and that makes it difficult. However, he will work with you until you understand it. Also, he works diligently with students to get them where they needed to be. Overall, he's one of the outstanding professors at Texas A&M University.
