I learned a lot in this class and Professor Sladeck made sure to offer all the necessary resources to help students succeed. The readings were a bit lengthy but were extremely helpful when writing the papers. The professor kept the lectures very engaging and explained what he expected from students thoroughly from the first day of class. If you keep up with the readings and follow his writing guidelines you will receive a good grade in the class. Definitely would take his class again!

This class was one of my favourites this quarter. Professor Sladeck is very knowledgeable and his lectures are engaging. He’s also very helpful and makes sure that your questions are answered and gives you constructive feedback on your essays. Participation is not mandatory but would be very helpful for the assigned essays.
