Selected Quotes and Course Ratings
Alex is an amazing instructor. He makes sure to include everyone in discussions and really listens what we have to say. He made class enjoyable and made students want to participate by incorporating little fun activities. My favorite instructor by far.
This was a fantastic course. I loved the guest speakers (especially having the police officer come in), the type of assignments, the questions for weekly essays, and the in-class activities..."
I really enjoyed both doing and listening to other case studies and mock trials. I have talked to others in the class who also felt this was one of their favorite parts.
Alex was one of the best instructors I have had at the UO. He is truly a remarkable teacher, and I wish I could take more of his classes.

Selected Quotes
"Alex is great instructor who is very engaging and informed on all of the topics we covered. He does a good job of leading discussions without taking over the conversation."
"I really loved this class and have hopes that it will be taught again for others in the future. The seminar setting is a great way to learn and engage with professors and peers."
"Alex facilitated discussions really well, allowing for students to bring their own interests and perspectives to each class while still maintaining a coherent theme through out the class. Every reading and assignment was exactly enough to engage in the material in depth while not wasting students times with little meaningless assignments. Alex also provided an exceptional amount of support to students."
