Don't listen to these other comments that are negative. This guy knows his stuff, he just does not know how to teach. Do your work on time, take notes, study like you are supposed to and you will do fine. I walked away with an A and it was EASY. Bring your laptop to class so you don't fall asleep.

I really enjoyed this class. He was a really good and helpful teacher, just boring at times. You can use your notes on quizes and his tests comes straight from the study guides he gives. With some studying and actually going to class you should do fine. I ended up with an A.

The first 3 ratings on him are incredibly inaccurate. Snook knows his stuff, but he is extremely monotone and boring. He looks like Peter Griffin and he makes some dry jokes sometimes and laughs at them. He is a nice guy and does not make the class difficult. If you are not lazy, come to class, take notes and study it is so easy. I got an A.

Good Prof. He's a nice guy who knows his stuff and is willing to work with students to make sure they get what they need out of his classes. Class can seem haphazard sometimes, but really by the end of the semester, you have the information that the class was meant to give you.

Professor Snook is an awesome professor and the most down to earth professor in the department. His background is in statistics so he likes to uses graphs and numbers and always is well versed on current events. His projects can be rather lengthy but they are always current and allow the student to express their own thoughts. Great Professor.

Certainly enjoyed his class! Great proffessor and interesting class. One word of advice... dont get behind on your term paper!

Professor Snook tries to make this class interesting, but the material as a whole is dry. Quizzes are open notes and are mainly vocab-related. Midterm and final exams are pretty basic multiple choice. The term paper is a rather significant part of the grade, but you don't have to write one if you take this class over the summer.

Great professor. Obviously passionate about the material he teaches. Not outwardly liberal like many other professors. Obfuscates his conservative beliefs, which is unfortunate. Definitely recommend taking over the summer.

The guy is a very very reasonable teacher and great communicator. He doesn't really make eye contact with the class while teaching, none the less his lectures are clear and his view points are rational and practical. He's a bit of a jokester too. Go to class and get the book(s) as all the quiz material is from the readings and notes.

Snook is a good guy and teacher all around! He talks about current topic and makes class enjoyable, rather than droning on. He jokes around and is very helpful if a student has a problem or is not understand the course work.

He's very sarcastic and funny. His lectures are serious and he makes them interesting. You do have a LOT of reading and you need to read to pass the tests. Also you have discussions due every two weeks. He's a pretty good teacher overall.

Prof Snook is nice and you can tell he enjoys what he does. He really wants his students to be engaged and gets upset when they arent, but his lectures are long and dry. I stopped going to class bc it was too hard to pay attention, but I still got decent grades. All tests online, one book report, a quiz or 2. Its pretty easy. Lots of books to buy.

We had a LOT of online tests. Pay attention to the windows that they are open. He was kind enough to open up a midterm that I missed, but this is rare and not to be expected.

Bruh. There's a 20 page paper due at the end of the semester that was not well planned for. Other research courses slowly build on the amount of pages, but he only checks 5 pages and then the other 15 are due at the end of the semester. Not fun. AT ALL. I wish he assigned an annotated bibliography, something you can actually USE when writing

Can be a tough grader on the essays, but it is more because he has high expectations for what he wants. Does give high grades for well constructed and thoroughly thought out papers. Lectures can be extremely boring.

Great professor if you actually are interested in political science and want to learn. Assigns a lot of work, but is an extremely easy grader. He is a super nice guy and wants everyone in the class to succeed. 2 papers, 10 online discussions, 4 online quizzes and a final. There is a good bit of reading but it's all interesting. Take him!

Professor Snook is light hearted and easy going. You'll write papers and have a few quizzes with an optional final. He's a very good grader and is more worried about giving you feedback to learn with as long as you cover the points he wants, not out to get you with grading. Participation and going to class help but the roll came around rarely.

This guy was great. He had reviews before every test. Tests are online. Makes fun of politicians all the time. Pro Tip: know the key terms in the book, and you'll be set. At first the class seems hard, but he grades kind of easy.

At first I thought I wasn't going to pass this class, but with help of your class mates and basically DO the research paper! and the four exam and discussion and essay you will pass. JUST DO THE WORK. The research paper is not hard and he doesnt grade hard on it, as long as you have your work citation and the paper is in the right format.

I personally loved Professor Snook. Although his lectures can be a bit boring and he seems to just talk, his humor lightens the mood. 10 quizzes, 10 discussion posts, a midterm & final and a 3 page paper, all which are online and easy. Attendance isn't mandatory, but he does help with quizzes if you go, and gives extra credit sometimes as well.

I took Professor Snook's online class. He uploaded his lectures online, which were very boring. He provided slides for the material covered in the chapters, which helped as a good summary. Quizzes weren't too hard. The "big" essay isn't that big, and actually seems pretty decent. Overall, easy class.

Great Teacher, and extremely caring I could not comment enough praises for this man. will work with you and your schedule he truly cares about his students and their grades.

This class was an easy A. No test, besides your midterm and final. 10 Discussions post and 10 quizzes. I would suggest getting the textbook because some questions on the quizzes will ask for the books definition of a word. Come to class, even tho he is really boring, he is a petty attendance taker.

He is a great teacher, boring at times but still good. Come to class cause he will take attendance for extra credit points if he sees a good bit of the class not there. Dont take a quiz before he reviews. Wait till he reviews for quizzes because he will give you the answers basically. Midterm was questions from the quizzes

I am awful at Government stuff, but this was the easiest class ever. Can be boring at times, but tests and quizzes are open notes and online. If you go to class the day before the quiz he tells you what will be on it. Great teacher!

Lots of reading. Nothing too difficult. Clear material and he's a nice guy.

This was the easiest class I could ever take. I never paid attention to his lectures and people even stopped showing up to his class and we all still received an A. Everything's online that means you quizzes, midterm, and Final. I never read the book once. Tho he does blab on and on about some unrelated stuff. You don't need alot of effort here.

It is a Methods class. That being said, there will be a substantial paper. Secondly the paper is broken into chunks and well explained, so if you use your time wisely, it will feel less like a 15 page paper and more like three 5 page papers. Be prepared to write and challenge yourself and show up to class! Follow the rubric! Cheers!

He's a good professor objectively. I had a difficult time because I found his voice boring therefore couldn't pay attention well. You don't need to go to every class - go some. He only takes attendance half the time and all the slides get posted online. Tests are all online. (I took hybrid course)

You will have a discussion question every 1-1/2 to 2 weeks dues. He did current event quizzes and these were an easy A. He also has a quiz after 2-3 chapters in each book. His questions on the quizzes, midterm, and final can be somewhat tricky so you really need to understand what you're learning in order to do well.

Hardest part was regression but to be fair we were moved to online so he couldn't really teach it. The research paper is 12-15 pgs & 25% but it's easy to do well if you listen to his feedback (got a 98). 2 pgs are due 1st, then 6, then 4 so it isn't all at once. My lowest grade was an 88 on a video assignment (easy btw) and he gives good feedback

He his a very relaxed guy all the quiz can be found on google and the current event quizzes are very mainstream questions. The final and the quiz can be a little challenging but from a guy that never did anything but the discussion post and quizzes, it should be an easy A for anyone who studies. All the quizzes and test are online and not lockdown.

As long as you take notes on the lectures & pay attention you'll be fine. The only thing is, pretty much every assignment is a quiz. Every two weeks we have a discussion, current events quiz, & quiz. They're easy if you study. Professor Snook is really calm & kind. He really enjoys the topics he's teaching, which makes the class better.

The class consits of eight modules, a midterm, and a final exam. The modules have a discussion, a quiz, and current events quiz. He gives you two weeks to complete each module which for me is plenty of time. If you know the key terms for each chapter in the textbook this class should be an easy A.

prof. snook's class wasn't difficult, though (imo) poorly laid out. majority of his quizzes were only 5 questions, making it easy to fail. the textbook is listed as required, though i never opened it and still pulled a B in the course. if you are someone who is interested in polisci, you will enjoy his class.

Take him online!!! He was very clear up front of the assignments. No lockdown browser, but read the slides. His information is much more helpful. Every other week there was a quiz, discussion, and a current events quiz. DO THE CURRENT EVENTS ASAP. As long as you do the discussion, you will get a 100.

Professor Snook's class is very simple. In class you just cover power points for lecture. You have a discussion and a 4-5 question quiz every two weeks. If you do the discussion you get a 100.There is a midterm and final. Both are open note, but you have limited time to take them. Overall this is probably the easiest class I have taken at KSU.

Dr. Snook cares about his students success and he does try to help you do so. His paper feedback is pretty harsh, but his grading is fair.

Chill. Everything online, no lockdown. Easy A with minimal effort. Cool guy too.

My favorite teacher! The easiest class for an A+. He gives so much extra credit if you attend class, make sure you come to his lectures. He does random attendance checks. It's impossible not to get an A+. Open book quizzes and exams. He will review the exams in class before the exam. Attend to get the answers! One essay paper, super easy grader.

I had him for an online summer class as an incoming freshman and he was great! He had open note tests and quizzes, some discussion posts, and one project. He gave great lectures and I found it to be a great class to start with!

Dr. Snook was a good guy. His lectures were kind of all over the place but the tests were all fairly easy. Participation in class doesn't really matter but there are discussion posts you have to answer biweekly online. Feedback is clear and precise when asked for. If you're looking for an easy A this is the class for you.

Passionate about teaching and a kind person. Graded off of quizzes, exams, and discussion posts, but most were pretty easy. Definitely get the textbook since it'll help with the powerpoints. Only thing is his lectures are not very engaging and attendance was mandatory.

He was fine no good or bad things to say.

I am confused on most of these ratings but the best Polysci professor I have had. Also one of the easiest and enjoyable classes I have ever taken!! I highly recommend taking him for Polysci 1101.

Easy grader, gives really great feedback and is also a fast grader. His lectures are a tad hard to follow but overall had a good experience in his class.The workload isn't super heavy, it's all writing but you're given a week if not more to do one assignment.
