Reviews of professor Jed Chalupa

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I took him in the spring of 2020 and at first I was extremely hesitant to being in his class because he expects a lot out of you but the class itself isn't hard at all. You have to write pre/post negotiation plans that are pretty self explanatory. Exams aren't too hard if you take good notes. He can definitely come off tough but still a good prof.

Mr. Chalupa is a very open-minded man and shares his thoughts and work with the class well. The class I took was a dialogue and thus not lecture heavy, however, he does express that he does not like having lectures and having students write all of class. Its always open discussion and there is never any judgement. Get ready to write but its easy.

Rude. Would never take again. Would highly avoid if possible. Gives feedback but can sometimes treat you like you're dumb so unless you already know how to negotiate perfectly don't take him. Worked super hard in this class just to be treated like I was the dumbest person ever. Rude rude rude. 0/10 recommend. Super condescending person.

Overall, if you're interested in societal issues, you will love this class. Although there was a lot of writing (that's literally all you do), everything you write about will be interesting. Dr. Chalupa was a very insightful and caring man and gave great feedback on every assignment. I would definitely take this class again.

Although not every lecture is presented by Jed (some are done by students as part of the course) his research interests really shine through and make the content more impactful. Experience with writing case studies help when doing negotiation prep and post writings. Tests were not bad at all if you keep up with the assigned reading.
