Reviews of professor Michael Hankinson

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
If you are into hard work he's your choice. He knows a lot and that's clear but I felt like he had a hard time to pass this to us due to his tuff vocabulary or because he would give tons of content all at once in class. Even though he curves a lot I don't think it's worth the stress in class. But if you are a hard working student just go with it.

Heavy reading and daily quizzes, but he makes you think. Expect to work and read a lot because theyre related to the quizzes, papers, midterm and final. But, if you can do all that, the class should not be too hard, especially if you major in it; he gauges your understanding of politics & helps you understand social policies better through facts.

This professor is pretty rude and he seems fairly new. He can work harder to know more about the lectures he's teaching. Too much work for a 2000 level class. I've had way better political science professors.

Very insightful & engaging class. You have to participate/come to class. gives no hw, but long assigned readings that no one reads- his slides explain them. 2 exams both curved including MC & gives u 3 essay questions beforehand & picks 2 for the exam. OPed was graded fairly & did better than expected. Lecture heavy class

Great Professor! It's not an easy class but if you are interested, it is worth it. Readings are not that hard, not many assignments.

He is a really great professor in terms of explaining material and providing interesting content that will engage students. The assigned readings are long but nobody reads them because hell just go over them in class explaining everything. The readings are interesting if you are into that stuff.

He is a good professor. Pay attention to the slides, and do the assigned reading. If you do that you can easily pass his class. The lectures are clear, and concise. Take his class you won't regret it.

One of the best profs I had. Lectures and readings are really enlightening. If you dont want to do any work and still get a good grade, dont take the class. But if you actually want to learn, he should be your first choice.
