Kershaw is absolutely amazing. He is an enthusiastic lecturer (he NEVER stops moving). He's really funny. He loves his topic, and he really enjoys teaching and talking to students. You cannot go wrong by taking his class. It does require a fair amount of effort and you MUST go to lecture and discussion if you want an A. 1 midterm 1 final and 4-5 papers each about 4-5 pages long. John Terry is a great TA and a fair grader (take him if you can).

This was a great class! There's not a huge amount of work, but you still learn a ton. Kershaw is a very engaging lecturer. If you can, get John Terry as a TA--he's enthusiastic and really cares about how you're doing in the class.
