Fall 2018 - Such an easy class. Open book midterm and final. 10/10 would take again.

Very disappointing. Opinionated, arrogant, disrespectful, unprepared, unavailable. That's what my tuition dollars are going? Geesh.

Fall 2022 - Anyone interested in learning about Russia/other countries' political culture and process should absolutely take this class. Treisman is a wonderful professor; he is extremely passionate about Russia and lectures were always engaging. The reading was pretty average for an upper division political science class (50-100/week), but I found most of them to be pretty interesting. Overall would definitely recommend his class.
