Gene is such an amazing professor. He is the sweetest old man you will ever meet. His lectures are entertaining and he talks your ear off. Grades easy as long as you do you work. Is lenient on late work.

The classwork was not hard for this class, the problem I had that it was an online course for CAUS students, who are mostly working adults with families. We take online classes for the convenience. However with Professor Farrington his course due dates were insane. Something was due in JOULE everyday.

Comment:
The classes could be better because they are required for certain majors and minors. I really do not like classes in which you can just "get through". For what I pay at Notre Dame, I want to learn. He's a funny guy but takes forever to grade papers.

Gene is a wonderful person who is honest, straight-forward, and down-to-earth. He is very knowledgeable of his subject and will do anything to help his students. He cusses a lot but it's pretty refreshing.

Gene is hilarious, out there, wild, and will tell you how things are. He's a joker, and sometimes even seems crude, but an excellent teacher...one who you can't just let drift away :)

I love Gene. I had him for Shakespeare and am now in his Creative Writing class. He definitely is not a structured teacher and he has a mouth and is blunt, but he's different and that's definitely needed. Participate in his classes and try to show some interest, and he'll open up a whole new world for you. Wonderful teacher and mentor.

Comment:
Class was always interesting, but I may have been the only person in my entire evening adult course to actually read Shakespeare. I was offended by the repeated references to his sexuality and random diatribes regarding how superior liberals are in all matters of the world. If you voice an opposing opinion, you will be ridiculed.

Eccentric for sure, I still don't like Shakespeare, but with spark notes and going to a play, manageable.

UMM...what can I say. He def. loves the "F" word. Only got 2 out of about 8 papers back. Cancelled class about 3 times, got out early frequently. I have no idea what my grade will be. See one of his plays and apparently you'll get a good grade. Very humerous man!

Gene is definitely passionate about his classes. He can be very blunt, but he knows who he can pick on and who he can't. Although he usually isn't very PC, it's all in good fun. I would reccomend any class with Gene just for the experience. Gene will make the class comfortable and entertaining. He understands that stuff comes up and life, so he goes with the flow. If you need structure in a class, his might not be the one for you. Otherwise, go for it...you won't regret it.
