Schramm is moving on to teach in the graduate program. Get his class while you still can. Just finished the greatest class I ever took. He is just the best teacher in the world. I am a life-long Schrammanian now and forever. May this man be blessed now and forever.

He's a really great professor that eventually becomes a person you can call a friend after you're done. He's been through a lot in his life (good and bad) but he uses those experiences to help anybody who wants to be helped. 100% take his class even if you think you're going to fail.

no homework entertaining lectures. he tells us real life cases he has done. very open to talk to. reviews each quiz although they're super easy. he makes you want to come to class to pass you with an A. a few easy quizzes a mid term and final he also reviews for. optional final paper for extra credit

What an amazing professor. This is a Summer Masters course and Dr. Schramm knows what he teaches. He just might be the best professor that I have had in college or my graduate program. If you want to learn about Foresic assessment take this man. All of my classmates have shared similar feelings about his mastery of the topic & teaching skill.

My first graduate class at JJay as a transfer student and this professor is the bomb. What an inspirational man. He teaches with the essence of the consummate professional and brought his career work right to the classroom. Classy guy, no hangups and a solid ego that epitomizes professionalism, competence and a lifetime of caring. Do not miss.

My last class at jjay and wish I had found this professor earlier in my time here. I actually might consider taking graduate course here so I can experience Dr Schramm's teaching again. He's just the best. My chimes are ringing to start into a career that can bode well for my future. Sorry class is coming to an end. Do not miss this professor.

Professor Schramm will rock your world! He's a great teacher, but more importantly, he made every class a true learning experience with in-class projects and real case interviews to let us know what being a professional counselor might be like. First upper level class and hope to take him again.

Prof Schramm defies any written synopsis beyond simply being the BEST. As a teacher.. As a human being. A patriot. A mentor. A mensch. This is a man not to be missed. You will not be disappointed. Check him out since every class he teaches is usually closed as soon as it is made available. I will def take him again.

Winter Intersession that is a grinder 26 sessions in 12 days but Prof Schramm pulls it off. What a truly wonderful experience being in his class. He taught our Capstone class as a prelude to graduate school. All of his Spring classes were filled but he'll over-tally his senior year students. Take him! Incredible class and professor.

It's not an exaggeration to say Dr. Schramm is a true master of his craft. If you are considering forensics or mental health counseling, you will have made up your mind one way or the other after taking his courses. Do not take his warnings on attendance lightly. Participation and attendance are HUGE.

Very excellent Professor who clearly knows a lot about the field. He does talk for a while and uses up all of the class time but it is worth it, each story and case study is relevant and interesting. Do the work, fairly easy assignments can even be done in one sitting honestly if you pay attention. Highly recommend

Dr. Schramm is the best professor I have ever taken. Period. The only way to rate him less than 5.0 is to have missed some of his incredible classes or have other issues. The work represented his actual clinical cases. We made a binder to help build a real clinical practice. Do not miss taking course, best at John Jay. Thank you for your expertise!
