Quarter: Fall 2016
Grade: A-
June 11, 2017

He was the first poli sci professor I had as a freshman. The tests are usually ID Questions, and about two short essays, which he gives a study guide for. Fairly easy class. The only annoying thing was the weekly reading quizzes in discussion section. They weren’t extremely hard, but it required you to have actually done the reading.

Easy class. Essentially the same as AP Gov. Chris is funny and genuinely cares about the subject matter, which translates really well in his teaching.

Tausanovitch is a great professor! Super engaging lecturer, great slides, ties current events into class... Class itself is pretty easy. If you took AP Gov in high school it should be a breeze.

Class is the easiest lower div poli sci class. You know that from the amount of athletes that are in the class. Have you taken Government in high school? Yes? Don't go to lecture. No need to read the book. You're set and should get an A unless you're an idiot. As for Tausanovitch, hes young and hes alright....

Never went to class, still got an A-. He posts his lectures online and if you took AP gov in high school, this will be an easy class for you. Highly recommend as an easy GE.

Professor Tausanovitch is decent. His lectures aren't incredibly engaging, but he does present most of the relevant information for the class in his slides (something that most professors I've encountered unfortunately do not do). His voice is easy to understand and he explains things in great detail, occasionally going on too long about fairly simple concepts. I would be all right with taking another class with him.

The textbook is useless. I opened it twice during the quarter, but both times it was simply to define terms; I could have used another resource. Still got an A. The content is fairly easy, especially if you've taken AP Gov in high school, and the tests were not very hard (though the preparation for them was fairly strenuous).

great class, very organized and easy to understand. Some of the readings were a bit long, but you can get by just fine by skimming those. Interesting concepts that tie in to everyday life.
