Comment:
Took him for con law.. He makes you write case-briefs with no clear requirements and doesn't tell you how to improve them. I tried reaching out to him and he had a tantrum. I got the same grade for every brief. Do not take him

con-law is amazing! His multifacted teaching method in this class keeps motivation peeked. Whether Preparing briefs, holding mock panels, or working with his diverse and superiorly planned out list of crucial con-law cases, the opportunity to experience the power of the judiciary is offered no where else in academia like it is here. TAKE THIS CLASS

Comment:
Dr. Paulson is tough but simply brilliant. He will teach you alot but it comes wih the price of discipline and effort. So if you're not serious about learning you probably should take a fluff professor.But if you're serious and want a last chance at receiving an Ivy league type education than take his classes...Seriously!

He likes to yell in the middle of a lecture; not that it's a bad thing- he's just really passionate about what he teaches. Nice guy, I missed the final due to the flu and he was more than willing to accommodate a retake or incomplete. Notes are a little hard to take, but he makes the subject matter pretty interesting. Good professor.

Comment:
As a professor Paulson does know his stuff, however as a person he is very rude and makes his not favorite students feel like they have no brains. Even if you are older and successful, he will still talk to you as if you know nothing and he knows everything. Its professors like this that make me hate polisci

After taking other PSC 100 courses I can honestly say this is the most worth while, you will actually learn something and he is a fair grader.

rude, discouraging, and if your not one of his favorite students which all happen to be extremely liberal, he will try and corner you and knock you down for not sharing a common opinion...just another liberal college professor trying to indoctrinate vulnerable studnets.

Probably one of the best instructors I had all through college! Loved the class and his lectures were always so relevant, so interesting. I don't remember if he yelled, but he sure seemed to love the subject he was teaching, so he would get really involved with the topic.

Incredible Professor. He took a subject I truly love and made it so much more interesting. He opens you up to a wide variety of world views, and lets you sort them out on your own, rather then tell you which is the "right" one. I strongly reccomend him.

Comment:
Paulson was a fair professor. As a freshman taking the class I felt like a lot of the other students were older and more knowledgeable, but I studied hard and tried to do well. I came out with a decent grade but not the grade I wished to receive. Overall Paulson's class wasn't demanding, but is kinda hard if you're clueless in the subject.

Very strange, he likes to yell in the middle of class for no apparent reason. You do't have to got to class b/c he doesn't take attendence & the suff he talks about in class has nothing to do w.the test. If you read the books/knoe political science well you'll do fine.
