Professor Stohl is a terrible lecturer he rambles about one topic for so long and ends up confusing everyone. His lectures are hard to follow and so boring. Class attendance was 10% because most students did not go. Your grade consisted of 2 papers with the final paper being about 25 pages.

Grades relatively hard on papers, nothing too crazy, but there's a lot of papers throughout the quarter. Fortunately these are "take home" though. Lectures tend to feel like droning on and on and it's easy to space out, fortunately, he doesn't test on minute details, but it's hard to get the motivation to go to lecture sometimes.

I haven't even finished the quarter yet and this class is insane. I have gotten A's on both of the exams, but the class is so DRY. I cannot sit and watch his lectures for more than 30 min at a time. Don't even get me started on the papers. The 16 page term paper and the final are due a week apart. Only take this class if you enjoy politics.

This class was an interesting class and Professor Stohl has a lot knowlege when it comes to global communication/ politics, but I have never written so much in so little time. Huge paper (15 pages) due week before the final, then a take home final consisting of two 4 page papers. It was just too much so don't take if your not an essay person.

I tried my best to avoid a Stohl class, but it was inevitable. Lecture is dull like Stohl's personality; 1.5hrs of extreme boredom. Material won't click if you're uninterested in politics, which is roughly the majority of students. He reads off Powerpoints and has a sign-in sheet. 3 essays are assigned (midterm, final, additional essay). Rely on TA

People are scared of this class because of the 15 page research paper, but Stohl is an extremely intelligent and interesting professor. I learned a lot from this class and really enjoyed his lectures. He is funny and really knows his stuff. Not an easy class by any means, but a great class. Take him! Don't be scared!
