Great insights and point of view; good historical example, witty, expert.POL1001 2023-05-24 19:37:24 +0000 UTC
Hates CJ majors so keep that under the radar, extremely liberal but does not grade unfairly. Does make an attempt to make everything you read and write about his own views rather than challenging ideas. Did not fail me but I got B's on everything which seems a little extreme seeing as I got over 50 grades over two classes all being in B range.GOV101 2019-04-17 02:48:24 +0000 UTC
Dr. Slaner is a brilliant professor, I enjoyed his class very much. He made me love the complexities of American government and the politics behind it. Definately take a class with him!AMERICANGOVT 2006-04-21 20:13:16 +0000 UTC
This professor although thought provoking, was not responsive to numerous attempts for individual emails. I sent him emails for clarification on things that I was not graded well on, and never received a response. Also seemed too biased andnto me it seemed that it would reflect in the way he graded you. (Can't confirm since he didn't respond!)POL1001 2014-08-10 01:39:08 +0000 UTC
american gov. and politics. one of the most thought provoking classes i've ever takenGOV101 2012-11-17 00:11:46 +0000 UTC
An excellent professor, definately one of the best in the department. His class discussions are some of the best I have ever been involved with. He succsessfully incorporates current events into the intricacies of our American Govt. The class was very well taught and I hope to have him again for another class.AMERICANGOVT 2006-04-21 20:03:10 +0000 UTC
