Comment:
Steve is a wonderful professor. He is highly intelligent, charismatic, and engaging. ENG 271 is a text-heavy course, and you should expect to read roughly 40 pages each night. There is also one paper, several journal entries, and an essay-based final. It's a difficult class, but it's also rewarding. Plus, Steve is easily THE hottest professor. ;)

Comment:
I had Professor Evans for ENG 271 and, while I wasn't really sure what to expect going into the class, I really enjoyed it. It was definitely a different type of English class than I'm used to, but I really enjoyed the course content (despite the number of reading assignments) and always found the class discussions interesting and enjoyable.

Comment:
Professor Evans was incredibly intelligent and it was obvious that he was very prepared. I feel that I learned a lot about film from his class, and the content was really fun. My issue with him is that he calls on many students to speak every single lecture. With social anxiety it's a nightmare and made me really dread going to class.

Comment:
He's a lot of fun and he loves his subject. Not a particularly difficult grader and, in my experience, mostly looks for true and honest effort. Very approachable so if you're struggling stop by office hours. Only complaint would be how reading intensive this course was, but that's to be expected. Plan your schedule so you have enough time for it.

Great professor who really cares about his students. Willing to help and can make reading something dull really enjoyable. A great class, would take many more classes with him if I could

Comment:
Evans is a brilliant teacher. He takes a class that could be extremely tedious and makes it engaging and relevant; on top of that, he's charming, kind, and deeply intelligent. Be prepared for a great deal of reading and for really useful feedback on your writing. I adored his class.

I have mixed feelings when it comes to Evans. His classes are interesting, and he does a great job of at least seeming structured and prepared. He's not one to (harshly) disagree with any of your insights. However I get the feeling that he isn't very "genuine". I'd be interested to see how he grades each of his students.

What an awesome professor, very smart, comedic, and more than willing to help you get the grade you want for his class. But I would brush up on my SAT vocabulary because its difficult to keep up otherwise! It IS a class that requires effort and work, but it is rewarding, and you are much smarter for it!

Steve Evans is both an intimidating and fascinating individual. The subject matter of the class I took with him was a struggle for me, but he always made class interesting, and he was always available to help you. He is also incredibly attractive and possibly the best-dressed professor on campus.

Prof. Evans did a great job of making a class I wasn't initially interested in very engaging. He usually conducted a very stimulating class, and while course work was tough, he was extremely fair with his grading. I would recommend taking a class with him.

He is very passionate, knowledgable, and dedicated to his field. He struggled a little bit at first to figure out what he wanted the class to do. But he is an asset to the English Department.

Evans is indeed an obnoxious professor, and almost a terrible one: very unclear about grading procedures and what he expects on papers and homework assignments. Worst final I have ever had. Very unprepared. Pretends to be your pal, but I question his genuineness.

Pretentious and fond of forcing participating to create an artificial dialogue. Not a terrible professor, but an obnoxious one.

Smart, funny, charming, and compassionate. Cares about his students, knows his subject matter well, and will make you laugh. Easy to talk to if you're having problems. Makes you want to do your best. Take ANY class taught by him. Worth it.

Steve Evans taught me that wrong life cannot be lived rightly. Consequently, I just do drugs and have sex all the time. Thanks, Steve!
