Sherrer is a funny, interesting guy and a great professor. This class has one midterm, one writing assignment (short), one homework assignment (very short), and one final. Both tests are multiple choice and short answer. No textbook, all readings are posted on the website. This class is so enjoyable, I wish I could take it again and would definitely recommend it to all.

Sherrer is one of those professors where their passion for the topic shines through their lectures.

Class is comprised of readings usually about 30 pages a week, and readings are due before class. They are a good primer for what the professor is going to be talking about that day. The readings are actually interesting and are helpful in understanding the course, so don't skip them.

The grade is comprised of a midterm, written assignment, infographic assignment, and the final. As long as you pay attention in class, take good notes, and do the readings accordingly you should have no problem getting A's on the tests. As for the written assignment, this is a time when you should meet with Sherrer during his office hours, in order to get the best grade possible.

Sherrer always tried to make his slides engaging, whether it be through memorable campaign ads or Taylor Swift quotes. This is a professor who cares about the material he teaches, and overall this is a wonderful class to take if you are a poli sci major.

He is a genuinely good person and very helpful. He wants you to think about your future after graduating and provides resources to help you find a career/next steps. I would definitely take a class with him again!
