Comment:
Not a good teacher. I'm surprised by all the good ratings because in my 4 years at MSU he was easily the worst teacher in every quantifiable metric. Avoid at all costs if you actually want to LEARN about CREATIVE writing.

Comment:
People seemed to like him. I didn't, which was a surprise because I was looking forward to this class. Beware, if you attempt to actually be creative he will most likely fixate on the least important details and offer no constructive comments to help you merge your style with something that would work.

Great class, great teacher, interesting, and good if you want to be a creative writer. Also, George doesn't hurt your eyes...if you know what I mean, but sexism aside, he is a good teacher.

Comment:
Contrary to the other posts, George Hovis' creative writing class is stale. The only reason this class will make you a better writer is because you're forced to practice. It won't be because of any illuminating lectures or insightful writing excercise
