Comment:
The only people who really have a problem with this guy are stupid. Hands down, the most well-versed in his field I've ever had the privilege of learning from. I took six consecutive semesters with him and I'll always be grateful for his help as my adviser. This man will help you succeed. If you really like the material, he'll be your hero too.

Comment:
Agree with him no matter what. You have no other option. Also, he talks forever and ever and ever and just when you think it will end, you look up at the clock and it has only been 15 minutes. Participation is important but not necessary. His paper are 350 words which you think is easy but you have to be very clear and concise. Good luck.

Comment:
God bless him, he's a very easy grader. Gives no tests, really. Just projects and papers. Very lax. Does not take himself seriously. He can be mind-numbingly boring, though I just do other homework when I get really bored, and he doesn't seem to mind. WORST THING is NO electronics and no food. Will not let you have your laptop.

Professor Wilson is really sweet and knows his stuff. His classes tend to be discussion-based, so perhaps he's not for everyone. He is an easy grader and approachable outside of class.

Comment:
I've had Wilson for four classes, including upper-division. He is quiet and a bit slow while talking, so morning classes are tough. But he is absolutely brilliant and laid-back. I considered him for my SMP adviser, and I actively seek his advice in my cross-major SMP. He is the professor my friends and I quote the most; he is a really funny guy.

Nice guy, but for the love of God do not take his classes unless you have to. You will sleep. Especially at 8 am -- he has an incredibly quiet voice and does NOT hold your attention at all. As I said, a nice guy but a BAD professor.

Most boring professor I've ever had. Don't take him just because he's easy -- I needed like a 4 hour nap after each class just to recover.

To start off, Prof. Wilson is brilliant! He really is an intelligent man and is passionate about his work, however this doesn't mean he is a great professor. He is a fairly hard grader and assigns a lot of, sometimes boring, readings. Other than that he is a delightful man who (if you ask) is willing always willing to help!

Made me hate my own major. Very unclear, along with being extremely demanding. Tough grader. Basically he made me frustrated enough to actually create an account on this site and rate him.

The best teacher I ever had! Anyone who says that they are bored with his teaching style is missing the subtle humor and genius of this man. I admit, when I first took his class, I remember feeling like I didnt learn anything in the classroom. However,

Aww Bruce is a really sweet guy, but theres something about his 8AM class that just rocks me to sleep. Obvious literature at this hour in the morning for a college student isn't ideal, but I'm sure a little more pizazz in his presentation would really help future students taking this class. Rock on.

Probably THE most boring class I've taken at St. Mary's. And it was at 8am, which made it especially painful. But, Dr. Wilson is a nice guy, and was relatively kind with his grading.

This class has been pretty bad. Everything is so vague, and his teaching style could use a lot of improvement. I would highly recommend not taking him at all, get someone else or just wait!

I took one class with him and never again. Very boring, always sounds like he's high, your grade is based mostly on how much you talk in class. His grading seemed arbitrary. I doubt he actually read any of our papers.

He is the most brilliant man I have ever met. He is simply a well of knowledge and has an extreme passion for teaching. One of the best English professors at St. Mary's.

One of the nicest professors you'll ever meet, but his kindness is rivaled only by how BORING he is. His 8AM classes are typically used as naptime, if anyone attends them at all. But he's totally sweet.
