Wow, word should already be out on this one, but just in case you are hidding under a rock, reminder I do not recomend taking these classes unless you CAN NOT avoid them b/c of your major. Please listen to the warnings:)

Comment:
First of all, first guy OUTSIDE of class. However, his lectures are boring and he mostly rambles. His tests are INSANE. I can handle challenge, but at least have your lectures match your tests, come on. Difficult grader on papers, but I always got perfects on the essay portion of the tests.

His assignments are ok, but he butchers your work. Doesn't tell you what he wants from you and is a very hard grader. Loves his red ink pen. He definately has his favorites. I definately would not take this class unless it is a requirement.

This class was awesome ... so much so that I'm doing it for a living. Buchholz may not be the most favored, but without him, I wouldn't be as happy as I am today.

Boring subject, for sure. Needed for major/minor in Journalism. Does not connect with students well.

He made me feel stupid for asking questions, I didn't like him and I'm not looking forward to the rest of my Journalism program if he's involved... Make sure you read the school paper and put everything in AP style.

Comment:
He treats us like small children and is very boring. He makes me feel stupid and isn't very helpful. However, I know people that just adore him, so whatever. This class isn't hard to pass, just make sure everything is AP style or he freaks out with the red pen...

A short little egomaniac. Brusque, Obviously hates his job and considers himself above everyone else. Has little time for students.

His attitude is the problem, not the subject he attempts to teach.

If very nick-picky on some, what we think, is trivial stuff.

Media Law assignments are not hard. But the tests are crazy and do not always reflect the content gone over in class.
