Dr. Jon is one of the best professors I have had at GVSU. He genuinely cares about each of his students as people and wants us to succeed both in the classroom and beyond. Make sure you go to class, pay attention and read the books in order to participate in discussion. Be ready to be put in groups day 1 and stay in them all year.

I love this man! This is his last year teaching, so please take him if you can! Has so many great stories to tell and is well-rounded in every way. He wants the best for his students. Does not assign too many papers or tasks, just asks that you work well in a group setting and give your greatest effort. He is very wise and thoughtful.

Dr. Jon is the best man and professor that I have ever met. He is so passionate and intelligent when it comes to his work and he truly wants you to succeed. It's difficult to make students interested in his topics (at least for me) but he managed to do it anyways. I would absolutely take him again!

I took Dr. Jon for my honors National Security Sequence and I loved him! He made coming to class something I looked forward to. You're not graded on much in the class, so make sure you do a good job on the assignments you actually do get a grade for.

Dr. Jon is the nicest professor I've had at GV. National Security is one of the easiest sequences to take, and he really cares about his students. He wants everyone to succeed and always tells us how we're going to be "the future leaders." Take his class!

Dr. Jon is a saint. He was considerate when it came to assignments and tried his best to make sure that everyone understood the material. He's passionate about teaching and really cares for his students. He made learning about Greek fighting formations fun. He grades you based on the work you put in. If you put in some effort, you get an A.

Dr Jon is easily the nicest person I have met in my life. He sincerely cares about his students. His class is relatively easy compared to a majority of the honors sequences. There is a bit of writing that you should do to excell.

Professor White is incredible. He genuinely cares for his students and is always willing to help you if you need help. He makes you work for the A, but If you put in A grade effort you WILL receive an A. He is fair and is the best professor I have had at Grand Valley

Dr. Jon is loves teaching. He gave huge confidence boosts after grading papers and presentations. The grade for this class was made up of 4 papers and a final presentation. Classes consisted of lectures and moviesclips and 4 books were referenced. (Everything was on blackboard) Loved him, nicest guy you'll ever meet.

Comment:

I'll just be echoing past comments on here, but one of the most dedicated professors a university could ever have. Truly wants students to succeed, and his background in the field contributes to what you would want out of the "traditional college lecture". Three tests, bases some questions off the book so it's helpful to get it!
