Fall 2015 - Professor Asquer is a straightforward instructor, who gives his students a clear ideal about his expectations. Class is composed of a midterm final and the forum posts which you have to post on moodle. I received an A-, but could have easily got A+. did not put enough work. Overall, the class is interesting and teaches a lot about European politics and the way European Union operates. If you concentrate in Comparative Politics filed, take this class. Relatively easy A. also I am selling the textbook for it cheap **********

Fall 2024 - This is a really fun and easy class if you are interested in European Politics. Even tho I am not the most interested in some of the topics that were covered in this class I still felt like I learned a lot and was never really stressed about the class. The exams were online and open note with a fair amount of time to answer all the questions. The TAs were really nice and helpful like the professor. Some of the voting systems you may already have heard of just from interest in politics like I did but the class overall should be an easy A. There is one textbook but you can find it online pretty easily and there isn’t much reading. The reading is gone over in class and the professor encourages participation and asking questions. It is a class I would definitely recommend. Also he gave extra credit on the final exam so I think I got like over 100% as a grade in this class. Professor Homola’s classes I expect to become as hard to get as Bransetter’s in the near future so take them while you can.
