Comment:
Nicest guy you'll ever meet, but if you essay or paper isn't exactly what HE would've answered, despite any evidence you present to back up your claim, he will give you a C. I liked Shakespeare prior to taking this class, now not so much.

If you take Dean you will regret it. Every essay you write must be PERFECT if you want to get a C+ on it. Anytime you answer his questions on your rough drafts he simply finds more questions to ask... Impossibly to please. Would not recommend to friend or foe...

Dr. Baldwin was awesome! I took his class many years ago and what he taught still sticks with me. His class on King Lear is very powerful. I wish there were more Dean Baldwins in this world. He's tough but fair and he's never turned away a student who was truly interested in learning.

Comment:
If you don't enjoy a bit of history along with reading a TON, avoid this class. If you can get into it though, and are prepared to read and take notes on the reading every single day for a daily quiz, it's really not so bad as it is made out to be. You will either love it or hate it. Not recommended if you have a heavy workload semester lined up.

Harder if you are not an English major, most of the grading in this class are based on in class essay tests. The best way to pass the class is go to every class, participation does boost a not so good grade.

Class is once a week for 50 minutes-As long as you turn in the homework assignments and read the cover article to Newsweek which he provides, you'll ace the course. From what I've heard about other first year seminars, Baldwin's course is too easy. Fun guy, take this class if you need it.

he is not a fair teacher. he doesn't help you if you need help and he makes you feel like you are stupid when you ask for it. the lectures were good and the class was fun but his grading is atrocious and if you ask for help it seems like you just signed your death sentence

He knows his stuff and makes class interesting for the most part, but if you want an easy General Education Class, this is not for you. It is very, very hard and time consuming. I am an engineering major and spend more time on his homework and projects than I do on engineering homework. Expect to spend 2-3 hours on work outside of class per class.
