Reviews of professor Eric Button

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Button is one of the kindest teachers on this campus. He is so willing to work with his students and has the kindest attitudes towards us. He will give us a break if he deems it necessary and will cut class for the sake of his students. He is so easy to work with and is very willing to work with you.

Professor Button's lectures are very thorough and he always makes jokes during class. He really cares for his students, and gives many opportunities for extra credit and provides great feedback. The exam study guides really represent test questions too. As a freshman, he is one of my favorite professors so far and I would take this class again.

Be prepared for a group project if taking his public policy course; this paper is 8-11 pages with 15+ sources required. Thats not the issue though. You have to have a partner to do this with and taking an online course makes it difficult to do group projects. This is the largest grade you get. Its awful.

Mr. Button is a great professor, his instructions are clear and the workload is light. He has offered my class 2 extra credit assignments as well as exam curves. This class may not be the most interesting but Mr. Button works hard to make it interesting with finding data from current news. Exams are also very clear and he makes study guides.

The hardest PLSC class I've taken and it was because of him. First of all, he said the final wouldn't be cumulative and then it turned out to be cumulative. Also, there was very minimal guidance on the final term paper and what was needed i.e. citations. He grades so hard on the final term paper it's insane. His emails to students are so condensing

I had Professor Button last semester, and it was pretty easy. He says attendance is mandatory but I missed 6 class days and had a 100% in attendance. Easy quizzes. As long as you read the textbook and start studying 2-3 days before final you'll be fine. His lectures are definitely very boring, but time goes by pretty fast.
