Schleicher is great. He is definitely knowledgeable about comms and wants to see his students succeed.

Professor Schleicher easily the best professor at MC. He is extremely friendly and cares about his students, trying to get to know you and telling many stories about himself. His classes are engaging, and offers you more than what you can get from the textbook. Thank you, professor Schleicher! (I'll never forget the basketball dance)

Take this class!!. I took him for summer 2 and the class was easy going. I was nervous to speak but he was very kind and understanding. We has two speeches to do. One was an informative speech. I gave information on that speech and other was a persuasive speech I had to peruse my audience on what i think is correct. The class is fun.

Professor Schleicher is amazing! Took him for COMM108 online and his quizzes are easy. Just read the chapters, do the discussions and you can not get anything else other than a A/B. He's super sweet and kind! I really enjoyed having him as a professor as he somehow elevates the mood of the room when you're feeling down.

Such a good professor, so caring and respectful of all students. His lectures were nice and the class was interactive. Didn't give too much homework, you just have to keep up with the class lectures. I would take the class again if he was my professor.

Professor Schleicher is absolutely awesome! He truly cares for the wellbeing of his students and makes the class environment always comfy despite being online. There are a about 2-3 speaking presentations, a group project and 2-3 papers. His weekly quizzes reflect the lectures that he goes over during class and I genuinely enjoyed having him!

I've got a lot of social anxiety, but Prof Schleicher made public speaking unintimidating. He made 3 hour class enjoyable and really connected with the students, and was open and happy to answer questions. Tests based directly off lectures/textbook, easy to keep up with if you mind the due dates, he sticks closely to the (really great) syllabus.

Prof. Schleicher is amazing! I actually looked forward to my 3-hour lecture once a week. Course material is interesting, and I truly learned how to communicate better. Prof. Schleicher's ability to make the classroom feel like a community was incredible. He's funny, understanding, and patient. If you're taking COMM108, you have to take it with him!

Very kind, understanding, and encouraging professor. Instructions and due dates for every assignment are very clear. Fostered a comfortable environment even in a 3 hour online night class and kept us engaged. Open book quizzes and exams, textbook is available in MC e-library. Handily the best communications professor.
