Comment:
Take both 341 and 342. I was not in the COMM school, I was a politics major, but these were by far the best classes that I took while at UVA. Wheeler is great at explaining things and the material is very interesting. JUST DON'T MULTITASK! HE WILL FLIP OUT. And he gives you fair warning that it makes him mad, so no excuses.

Comment:
Wheeler is the greatest professor at this University. The class is almost exactly like Comm Law I. It talks more about property law which personally I liked Comm Law I better. But Wheeler still makes the class a lot of fun and interesting. Pretty easy, just follow the lecture notes that he sends out for exams.

Comment:
Wheeler is a great professor and really loves teaching law. He only uses the board to lecture from, but he uses a lot of great examples so that you really remember this stuff. He gives a oral exam at the beginning of every class, but it's really easy as long as you go to class. The midterm is pretty hard, but the final pretty easy.

Wheeler is a little weird, but passionate about law and teaching. I think that learned more from my two semesters with him than any other class at UVA.

Comment:
His class is very useful, he is extremely entertaining, and a great lecturer. Most importantly, you learn about all sorts of things that directly affect your life. BEWARE, do not try to multi-task in class. He get very angry. If you take notes on a laptop, don't check your email, he has spies. Email him to be a designated note taker to use comp

Comment:
Professor Wheeler is one of the most self-important professors i've had. He has a nervous breakdown any time a student does anything unrelated to his class and storms out of the room. His class is interesting but its unfortunate that thinks its necessary to be so unreasonably strict about meaningless things like doing crossword puzzles or reading.

Comment:
the material isn't necessarily easy for everybody, but the grading definitely is. look at the grade distribution for this and for comm 342 on the course forum... and then take both classes. in 342, i had a 101 average going into the final, but i still think that i got more out of these classes than i have out of most (and im not in the comm school)

Comment:
Wheeler is crazy. Literally. He'll flip in class if you read... even if you think you're being sneaky HE WILL SEE YOU and his reaction will scare you. It makes him pretty unapproachable, but luckily the subject matter is great. His lectures are interesting. Dont buy book- take good notes.

Wheeler is awesome - but for anyone yet to take him, some advice - under NO circumstances should you read the newspaper in class, because even if it's somewhere where you think it's hidden, it's not - and Wheeler will unexpectedly flip out and you and the rest of the class will be scared. people make this mistake every year, so don't let it be you.

Best classes every - got an A in both sections and all I did was show up and take notes. Judging the UVA moot court teams is fun too! Not sure that it will prepare you for law school, but Wheeler's still great!

Great all around... one of the best prof's i've ever had. But he misleads you with his midterm... just get the old exams and it's an easy 100.
