Comment:
Fantastic professor. Very knowledgeable and understanding, promotes an environment of respect for all opinions. Tends to be a little longwinded sometimes, but he knows what he is talking about. He puts a lot of work into the class and into giving students feedback. He is very supportive of independent writing projects. Highly recommended.

Unbelievable prof. Gave educated advice on how to better my stories, and worked with me to do the same. I would recommend him to anyone.

Comment:
Interesting topics, texts, etc., however, he is incredibly self concerned and relates most things back to himself. I will say, though, that he tries and puts a lot into class. Probably not the greatest class or greatest guy, but not so bad either. I would take another class with him -- especially because of his good text choices.

Comment:
Complete d*ck. Seems fine in class, but outside of it... The class seems easy while taking it, until he slams down 10 page paper this and 7 page that with ambiguous foci. One prompt was, "Pick a topic that you are passionate about and write 8-12 pages about it." Lectures were boring and mainly focused on his personal views of the world.

It was Coming of Age in America. It was so boring and not worth going to! DO NOT TAKE IT!

I really enjoyed this course. I felt that he put a lot of thought into the material we read in class. I took the class a year ago now and i still talk about the books we read. He also had us watch some great movies.

The material that he chose for this course was disturbingly violent and twisted. I wondered why this entertained him. . . He didn't return papers on time and was unclear about what he expected from us. Never never again.

Worst english prof I've ever had. Class was pointless, not worth attending at all. He was unfocused, disorganized, and uninterested in the students.

Lots of tangents about things that had nothing to do with anything! He spent most of the class talking about what we would be talking about that class!
