I think Huebert is excellent, although he overrates himself a tad. I've had Lisa Young a few times, she's pretty decent. All in all, it's actually a pretty great Poli Sci department at the UofC. One of the best in Canada apparently.

Huebert is a good guy but he is extremely arrogant and he definitely overrates himself to the extreme. Dube's definitely a little fluffy but he's a great person and, while not as strong as some of the others academic-wise, I still really enjoyed taking classes from him.
I tend to agree, the Poli Sci department at the UofC is really strong overall. I like the mix of profs in the department - they have their fair share of academic wizards and researchers but they also have a number of very personable individuals who are fantastic teachers.
