Reviews of professor Alexander Shaeffer

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The entire class was only 5 grades. 1 attendance, 2 papers, 2 tests. He doesn't force you to participate but he's usually lecturing for at least 80% of the class. He's super dry and the readings are boring. It was all ancient ethics. I usually spaced out in his class. He had a no laptop policy but never enforced it.

Prof. Shaeffer definitely knew what he was talking about, but just lectured at the class. There were two papers and we didn't get feedback on either. Smart guy, not the best teacher

Professor Shaeffer is not a good professor, and is not charismatic at all. He teaches the material at a ridiculous rate, and gets agitated when students ask him to go back a slide during lectures. Test's aren't too hard if you really study, but you'll probably end up teaching yourself most of the material because he's simply not a good professor

Shaeffer is a good professor but isn't great. His lecture can be pretty boring but it is relatively easy to pass the class.

Don't take this class unless you enjoy circular reasoning and listening to Dwight explain the same thing for an hour using 25 different metaphors before finally getting to the point already 4 minutes after class was supposed to let out.
