What a great professor! Both HIST201 and 202 are classes all taught as lectures. There are two 5-7pg papers and multiple book discussions. I really loved both classes, and Striner looks great in his vintage suits. I love hearing the stories behind each piece!

LOVE Striner. He is a big lecturer but his inflections are such that I'm never bored listening to him talk. You have the option of either writing two papers or writing one and taking the final and you also have to lead one supplementary reading discussion but that's basically it. He is a stickler for attendance but his lectures are v. interesting.

Dr Striner is intelligent, helpful, and kind. He also wrote a very nice rec letter for me once. I would love to do one for him as well.

I took all of Prof. Strieners classes! I LOVED them all. They were interesting and vibrant. He is such a great guy. His class was not hard, but maybe thats becuase he made learning so much fun. His film classes are great!

Wow, my thesis advisor and one of hte best dressed men on the planet. I love his book, and hope he has or will write another one. I took nearly every class with him I could and even audited a couple of his film classes! While many say he is easy... its false. Maybe its easy to get a C+ or B but you have to WORK for an A and if you put into his class you will leave with a wealth of historical knowledge. His stories and the intonation of his voice made his lectures both entertaining and interesting.

This professor is the man. Easy as anything in every class I've had with him, he nonetheless shows that strenuous testing is not required for the students to learn anything. He also has the best wardrobe, and doesn't mind explaining it to the class

Prof. Striner is the BEST teacher at WAC. He always kept me awake and had some awesome stories. Plus he was into learning for learning's sake instead of inundating students with petty work. Plus he looks and talks like Richard Dreyfuss!

I hate history, but if you have to take it, take it with Striner. He is an excellent prof, and hes very interesting, he doesn't just lecture he throws in his opinions too (which are reason alone to take the class).

Fabulous teacher! Dresses in clothes from the 1920s and other periods of the 20th century. SO much fun. Can´t wait to take more classes with him... like progressivism and the twenties!

I've never had Striner, but he is one of THE coolest guys I've ever seen. He always wears the best outfits, with his fedora hat, 3 piece suit, and 2-tone shoes. He's classy, he's dapper-- he's another reason why WAC is such a unique place.
