Comment:

Only graded on 3 papers, so if you like to write definitely take this class. No you don't need to be a baseball fan to take this class, I'm not. I'm not a great writer and thought 10pg papers would be super challenging but everything you need are in the books he assigns and you have plenty of time to write them.

Even though class in not mandatory, you will want to sit in class with Prof. Pease. He knows what he's talking about and he makes it interesting to learn about. Be prepared to read for papers but nonetheless, a very non-stress inducing class and a pleasure to be there.

Comment:

Dr Pease is one of the best professors you could take in the history department. Do not expect class participation: he has a lecture prepared any many points to discuss. However, he is VERY receptive to questions. In many of his upper level courses, be warned. Your grade comes from only 3 papers, he is old school in that way.

Comment:

Professor Pease was a good lecturer but was frequently off topic. His lectures were filled with information but that information was not usually found on the exam. All of his exams were exam based but you were given the possible exam questions a week before the exam. You were given 4 and 2 would show up. You then had one hour to write two exams.

Professor Pease is an amazing professor. He was always willing to help you out with the material when you were confused. As long as you dedicate yourself, there's no reason you shouldn't get passing grades on almost every exam. Your grade does rely heavily on the exams but Professor Pease provides you with so many ways to pass the exam.

I love history but lectures are a joke. I learned more, and the discussions are worth more than the lecture. However perfect attendence and partipation in discussion is not gonna help boost your grades. Plus TA doesnt post grades on d2l. There are 3 tests and all written exams. I got majority Bs and a few As on tests but got a B for the class.

I took this class as a freshman and loved it. His lectures are incredibly interesting and do help for the exams. There are two midterms and a final, so that is honestly your only work load. Would recommend to anyone and would take again! I'm a nursing major, yet loved this course.

I highly recommend taking a class with him. I've had him for both Western Civ. and the History of baseball and he is great. Very minimal use of the textbooks and his lectures are very interesting. Just make sure you go to class most of the time and you'll do fine and also you'll learn something without being bored to death.

Great prof! He's quite animated during lecture it makes it a little more interesting. TA grades the papers but it's not too hard if you do the reading.

Pease is the best professor I have ever had. I am a history major so I love history but even if you hate history and need to take a course take him, he is very knowledgable, passionate, and funny. I would not by the book because if you attend the lectures you should ace this course witghout doing the readings.

This prof is awesome. He isn't like others in the sense that he is very passionate and often gains your attention and interest. Exams are essay questions that you get a week before. So there is nothing on the exam that you won't know about. He loves teaching and is very interesting. Highly recommend taking him as a prof. One of my favorites ever.

Neal Pease is honestly one of my favorite professors at UWM. He is every passionate about what he teaches and he has a bit of a corny humor which makes the class fun.. Always willing to answer questions and sends out emails for those who want more info on a certain topic.

I wish I could take every class with Prof. Pease!! If you go to lecture and take notes you basically have perfect answers to the essay tests. He explains thoroughly and genuinely seems to care
