Reviews of professor Edwin Shriver

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He's a great professor overall. Very clear on his grading and assignments, he is highly accessible outside of class, especially during office hours, and everything you'll ever need is on the syllabus. He tends to be lecture-heavy, but everything is super clear, and he uploads all the material used in class.

Shriver is lecture heavy and his classes are mostly notes, but he really cares about his field and his students a great deal. He is a wonderful professor and is always willing to help.

A pretty easy class if especially if you have covered the content before. It can get a little repetitive with the lectures. Looks for participation but does not wager it into the grade.  A few essays/tests but they are fairly easy if you prepare for them. Professor always available for extra help outside of class.

Dr. Shriver is quirky and hilarious! His lectures are straight forward and he's always willing to help outside of class. 10/10

Shriver has to be the most understanding, kind, easy-going professor ever. He makes his class a cake walk if you just pay attention to the powerpoints and read the chapters. He has extensive review sheets and easy homework. Never hesitate to reach out to him for help. Love him! Awkward and will always try to make jokes. Engage with him in class!

if you are not white don't take this class because he won't bother remembering your name or pay attention to you. He is a good teacher and lectures do seem long and heavy but he doesn't really pay attention to everyone. it seems like he only gave class to half the classroom while the other half was ignore.

Edwin Shriver is truly an AMAZING professor, he is accessible outside of class and really values your concerns and questions. the lectures are a bit heavy but if you study and connect with him outside of class, you should be fine. I would take this course again and recommend it to a friend.

Dr. Shriver is the kindest and most insightful professor. He is very understanding and always answers emails or questions as quickly as possible. There are 2 exams, 2 papers, and some research participation you have to do for this course but professor Shriver makes this all very manageable and this class goes by very smoothly and easily.

Class was challenging! 3 exams and a big paper project. As long as you pay attention and take notes you'll be fine.

lots and lots of notes, 2 papers and 3 tests throughout the course

Dr. Shriver's grading system is very clear and straight to the point. He's also accessible outside of his lectures and is quick to answer emails. His exams are closed book and you can't use a study sheet, so learning and studying the material is crucial. He posts class recordings and PowerPoints which are very helpful!
