Comment:
He is extremely intelligent. He gives great lectures which really make the material assessable for every student. He is more than fair when it comes to grading, and he will give useful feedback on every assignment you turn in. So if you can't get a good grade in his class then you have no one to blame but yourself. I would definitely recommend him.

Comment:
Milton is boring. Paradise Lost is the bomb. This is naturally a difficult course, but Scroggins is a brilliant professor. He tries to make the exams as straightforward as possible, identification and an essay. There are 2 brief papers as well, but this course is a lot of interpreting what you read. Not an easy course, but Scroggins is worth it.

Comment:
Dr. Scroggins is a respected research scholar, he's passionate and intelligent. His lectures are very engaging and holds your interest. His assignments are typically 1-2 pages, but make certain the format is on point. Very reasonable grader, do the reading or you will not be able to write your papers. He hates filler and he knows if you read or not

Amazing teacher , brilliant man. I am glad I had him for my first semester ever at FAU. Intro to lit study was 3 essays no quiz no test . Teaching style is very conversational , does not sit and lecture on and on . Will go off topic is conversation leads that way . Hard but fair grader. Willing to help

It is surprising that "Dr. Weiss" does not teach Latino Literature, since he knows A WHOLE LOT about Latin America.

Comment:
Scroggins is brilliant & eccentric--don't take his class if you're easily offended or already know everything. He will challenge you more than you'll think is possible, but if you've read and were attentive in class, you'll understand by the end. This dude is Ivy-league level.

Scroggins is great, completely sadistic texts in the middle of the semester, but he made up for it at the end. Very helpful and has the patience of an angel. Only he could make Tender Buttons comprehensible. TAKE EVERY CLASS HE TEACHES!!

Comment:
Mr. Scroggins is an excellent teacher. He is brilliant, hilarious and overall a really quality person and teacher. He makes the most boring subjects (poetry) interesting and if you come to class, do the readings and pay attention, you will do well. 3 papers with a wide range of interesting topics and multiple EASY quizzes. Take him! He is wonderful

Pretty interesting guy, he's got very strong views but a wide vocabulary and is very intelligent, you'll want to listen to him. Poetry is a pretty boring subject, but he teaches you to really appreciate literature. He expects a lot from your writing but clearly states what he expects. I learned a lot from him, but you HAVE to go to class!

Professor Scroggins was one of my very favorites at FAU. I would have taken every class he taught. (I can't remember the class section, but it was a workshop)

Scroggins is brilliant. He really wants you to learn in class and is there to help you if you need it. He's pretty hilarious, in a scholarly kind of way. I didn't read either of the books, just came to class and took good notes and got low A's on both tests. 2 tests 1 paper no quizzes. Interesting, quirky, smart & funny. I'd def take him again

Mr. Scroggins is a really interesting guy and helped me read the Iliad and the Odyssey in a totally different light than I had before. At first I thought he was weird, but he is really smart and that makes him kind of sexy in a crazy professor way...

Comment:
poetry workshop was very cool. very interesting & entertaining when "teaching." his "ironical" (not sarcastic) manner is funny & would only offend uptight people. Gives very solid comments & suggestions for your writing & lets you do what you want in form and style. The readings were very different and difficult, but interesting.

Comment:
Professor Scroggins is a brillant man. His sarcastic nature spices up his lectures. I agree with the comments below, if you are unable to handle and/or get offended by saracasm than do not take him. Due to his laidback nature, his class was one of the most compelling courses that I have taken thus far. His intellect is inspiring.

Comment:
Good professor. VERY Smart and sarcastic (if you like sarcasm, he's your guy!). The actual class was pretty boring and I didn't like the readings but I didn't find him a terribly hard grader and he kept class more interesting by his jokes, sarcasm and (jokingly) picking on students. I would probably take him again. Class is all essay based.

He is really tough on his papers, but I did well on his exams which consisted of multiple choice and essays. He is sarcastic and hilarious, but he isn't degrading at all. If you can't take sarcasm, avoid him at all costs. If you can live a little, go for it! I recommend him!

Ever since I took this course I can't stop thinking about him. Hot, hot, hot. Erudite. Sexy. A pretty good teacher, too, I think. I was just having a hard time paying attention because it was all really working for me.
