Reviews of professor Michael Weismeyer

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
I loved history... Until Weismeyer. TONS of reading, hard quiz every class, classwork (usually becomes homework cause it's SO long), 1 paper/wk, 2 BIG essays. TOUGH grader on small things--esp short answers. CRAZY final! For a 100 level survey class, this is unnecessarily HARD. I worked SO HARD for only a meh grade. Save yourself & don't take him!

This was the best professor at southern. All of his lectures are both interesting and engaging and he is a very kind man.

Professor Weismeyer assigns a lot of homework, and he grades strictly. The most important thing to know before having him as a professor is that his tests are specific! I did learn from his class, but get ready to read, write, and study a lot. It was a heavier load than I expected from a history general.

While his classes can be interesting, this professor makes this class unnecessarily hard. Between all of the reading and the incredibly difficult quizzes, this is a tough class to receive a good grade in without putting in a lot of work.

Professor Weismeyer is a great professor! There are a lot of assignments to be done, but if you start with time you will be fine.

This was the best Professor that you could take for any history class. He gives you alot of extra credit (like 90 points worth of extra credit) which shows how much he cares about your success. PLEASE TAKE A CLASS WITH HIM, YOU WILL ENJOY IT!!!

He is really specific in what how he grades, yet really vague in instruction. His quizzes are over 20+ worth of a chapter and you have not really much of a basis for knowing whats going to be on the quiz. This class was hard for no reason. His quizzes are hard, yet the tests are easy in comparison - grades hard on short answer questions

He gives a quiz every day, but they tend to be pretty easy quizzes even if you don't read. He is a very easy grader and gives lots of extra credit opportunities. He does give big paper assignments, but not too hard overall. Would recommend taking his class.

This is a pretty straightforward online US History class, especially if you took it in high school. Weismeyer assigns a ton of easy assignments just make sure you stay on top of them. The textbook "Give me Liberty" is honestly NOT needed (especially for $200) but the books Voices of Freedom and They Called Us Enemy are. Lots of extra credit too!

I really enjoyed Dr. Weismeyer's class. I think that I learned a lot. He's very lecture heavy; he will talk the whole class, but it's usually interesting material. There are usually quizzes every class, which means a lot of reading, but they tend to be easy if you read. All the other assignments are clear what's expected of you, so it's an easy A.
