Reviews of professor Jake Haselswerdt

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I really enjoyed Political Science with Professor Haselswerdt. Even though his lectures were really quick, he got the material out and it was easy to understand. While the tests are pretty challenging, the Inquizitives are good points and make sure to do the assigned readings as they might pop up on the exams. Great intro class for Poli. Science.

Definitely would not recommend Dr. H. He is very insincere and cocky in every aspect of the class. His lectures seem like they're designed for grad school and he grades tough. He has no wiggle room on grading, there are high grade cuts and he will do absolutely nothing to help you get an extra tad bit. Choose a different prof!

Get a different professor! Dr. H makes this class unnecessarily hard and couldn't care less if you succeed or not. The grade cuts are very high compared to most classes and the TA's grade hard. Would not recommend!

I loved this class and the professor. He is knowledgeable and puts a lot of effort into his lectures/course material.  This was an 8 wk course so there were 3-4 lectures/discussion boards a week, two tests overall (not cumulative), a big group project at the end. Be sure to pay attn during lectures and do the readings.

One of the best professors at Mizzou! Dr. Haselswerdt is a great instructor a You can also ask questions during class and he has no problems explaining the topic until you understand. The class is a lot of reading though so be prepared for that.

One of the best professors at Mizzou! Dr. Haselswerdt is a great instructor and cares about each of his students. He is available both during and outside of his office hours. You can also ask questions during class and he has no problems explaining the topic until you understand.
