Comment:

Prof. Weizer uses Inquizitive, which basically requires you to spend another $60 for access to the website and book, and requires you to read 3 pages and provide correct word for word answers to receive full credit for a question. The Prof has good communication and is understanding. I will never take a class that uses Inquizitve EVER again.

Comment:

Moot Court is something that you take when you're looking to have some sort of career involving law. Do not take this if you don't want to work for your grade, you will get out exactly what you put in. As long as you do the work in the first few weeks of class, you'll pass, it gets much easier later on. He's also super accessible outside of class.

Poor feedback if you meet problem in the college. I feel he is working on behalf on his benefit rather than students'. Not helpful at all.

First amendment with this professor. Easy class if your a criminal justice major looking for an elective. Average about 5 case briefs throughout the year due at different times, along with a research/book report. three essay tests on each of the 1st amendment rights. Trust me, for me to say it was easy, it is easy. AF

Very difficult class!!! Knows what he's talking about, but unless youare a history buff/ history major, it will be a very tough class. A very tough class for the average student.

Weizer Knows his subject area, but I think thats all! I had him last semester and it was the worst class I have ever taken (including college, high school, and so on) Hes very smart and expects everyone elts to be at his level. If you have a problem its almost like he doesnt care!! Class was so extreamly difficult!!! I was lucky to pass!!

Comment:

Weizer knows his stuff about government, I think a student COULD learn alot. Its just he has this attitude of Im so great and better then everyone elts. Hes willing to give extra help but it counts for so little and you spend a massive amount of time on it. The work load is tremendous! Too much info for one 3 credit class. Show him that your try
