Comment:

Most of my professors had no idea what they were doing online and had zero appreciation of the stress that students were under this semester, as we moved home or into quarantine. David was understanding, flexible and went out of his way for individual online meetings with students and he helped us make our way through the new version of college

Comment:

There's a quip a minute as Professor Handschuh does his standup in front of the class, but what you don't realize is how much you are learning about Journalism, Photojournalism, the business of Journalism and the continuing need to keep up with the technology. David truly cares about the students and you'd be fortunate to get into his class.

Comment:

I had Prof. Handschuh for Photojournalism almost nine years ago. I'm now working full time as a journalist and looking back at his class, I realized:1-He told and taught us things that NO other professor in ANY journalism class brought up for discussion and2-He was spot on, 100 percent RIGHT on his assessment of Journalism as a career.THANKS David

Comment:

Professor Handschuh is a caring, entertaining and informative educator. While the class is Photojournalism, he teaches about the business of photojournalism and emotional care for journalists and how to market yourself as a photographer or writer and this is really valuable information. Highly recommended class!

Comment:

Brought good resources into the class from being a photojournalist, but judging by his effort this is clearly his side job. Means well but I was definitely expecting more guidance.

Comment:

Professor Handschuh is a real working journalist and his classroom lectures have helped me understand the world of journalism in ways that no other instructor have in four years of college. He has a great sense of humor and really can teach his students how to be a better journalist and photojournalist.

Really cares about his students. Great practical advice for journalism students, not just photojournalism. One of the best professors I've had at NYU.
