Class was not hectic, very well organized. Professor seemed passionate about his work, he did his best to get students engaged and to work with him in office hours. See him in office hours overall, very engaging.

If you show up and do the homework you will get a good grade. Very fair grader and extremely nice guy. Learned so much in this class (and it was only like 20 kids!).

He is on quite the power-trip, also likes to single out one student and critique them in front of the class.

Really great teacher overall. Gives detailed feedback on the essays assigned. Classes were chill and the workload was extremely light. Attendance is mandatory though.

This class was extremely rewarding! Dr. Schranck provides very detailed assignment instructions and feedback so the expectations were clear and there was a lot to learn. The course was designed around real-world applicable skills such as popular science articles. Dr. Schranck is a dynamic and fun lecturer, would definitely recommend!

I do NOT recommend this professor. I received an A on essays and major assignments and after meeting with him during office hours, he indicated I would pass, only to send me an email over the summer writing that he forgot about a clause in the syllabus that if you miss a SINGLE assignment you fail the class. It was shocking.
