As a people, do we really want to live under Jim Sherow laws? No, says this one.

As a people, do we want to continue living under Tim Huelskamp and the disaster he has been for this state?  No, says this one.

His survey post-1877 or whatever history class was ridiculous.  And bizarrely difficult.

I enjoyed his History of Kansas. Really threw a lot of the hayseeds in the class for a loop. Tests were pretty involved. Very particular snippets from pages upon pages of reading. I went into most thinking I did poorly (like, D, F) and usually did well.

Had him for the same class in the summer along with B.J. Finney. B.J. had trouble understanding the concept of a gay Christian. Was a pretty easy A. No term paper. He's definitely the most knowledgeable person on KS/K-State history that I've ever met. I particularly enjoyed the section of the class about Manhattan/K-State.

I had him for the History of Native Americans. I enjoyed it in that he didn't focus on tribes names, dates, etc (it would be hard to date things anyways cause there was no written history) and it was more of a combo archaeological history of what we knew of Native Americans before Columbus, and then Native American-American relations post contact. I felt he kept it fairly objective and source based for all the periods of US history especially from colonial times through manifest destiny to modern day. Also it was cool to learn that european traders often married into tribes as a way to gain access to trading rights with tribes, as an ancestor on my dad's side married a tribal chief's daughter, so it was a nice little personal connection to the whole class.

I would say that I did notice his very liberal point of view shining though more than it may have should, but in a history of Kansas class I think that is important and not necessarily a net minus. Most of the kids in that class have no clue of the progressive roots of early Kansas.

Any context that you can offer for this opinion?

I didn't really pick up on that. Maybe that's because I've had some very liberal professors in polysci and philosophy

Did he tell you about the mandans lining up the women to sec Lewis or Clark's slave?

Maybe it's because I compared him to KSU's biggest history stud (hands down) Charles Sanders, who taught the pre 1877 history survey.

Well, yeah. It's not really fair to compare anyone to Chuck Sanders.

Don't rough ridin' try to big time me. It was a comparison between basically every other class I've taken, and Sherow's. There is a noticeable difference between the two.
