Comment:

This class was hard. That being said, I have never learned so much from a professor or from a class. He was an extremely opinionated and hard to like human being and he grades tough. Honestly if you read the packet and book before quizzes and have him proofread your paper, you should pass with an A while learning a lot too.

I personally liked Dr. Loomis. If you are respectful to him then you will be fine. Turn in all of your assignments on time and you should not have a problem. Put thought into your papers and proof read. There were a few mistakes in some of my papers that he overlooked because they were minor. Not hard to pass his class, just do assignments.

Class overall isn't that hard, however Loomis is unresponsive to emails for help, does not use the ecompanion site at all for grades(do go ask him what your grade is either that really ticks him off, don't ask questions in class because you'll be made out to be stupid. Basically the class was not hard, except for Loomis and his ever changing mind

Decent Teacher. Interacts with students a lot in class, but he picks favorites. Tests are hard, but there's only one or two. We watch movies often so its cool. 5 papers from what I know. We spend days in class just critiquing other papers too. Def fun to talk to

Did not like him at all!!! I never understood what our papers were supposed to be about and when you asked him he wont flat out tell you. Goes off on bad random tangents. Dread going to his class because I always feel like it is a complete waste of my time!

DO NOT TAKE FOR INTRO TO LIT!!! His study guides and home made packet for the class is incomprehensible. I get headaches just trying to figure out what is written let alone comprehend it. questions on quizzes are weighted unfairly. Extremely sensitive! must read and take quiz on all assignments. i dread going to his class! AVOID IF POSSIBLE!

Loomis is one of the most passionate teachers I have ever had. He's a goofy old man, who is very knowledgeable of his subject. With that said, he is tough. His tests are almost all essay, and you will read. If your interested in Literature, definitely take Loosmis.

Took for Composition 2. Is a fair teacher, and has the entire semester planned out in the syllabus, so you can finish early on your essays if you want. He is a nice, but silly old man, and sometimes gets pushed around by the class. Not a hard class if you respect him.

He is a very fair teacher. He tells you what he expects out of you and gives good examples of papers he expects you to write. There is no set amount you have to write for each paper; just long enough to get your point across. We even watched movies in his class.

You have to have the right attitude when dealing with him. He is very hard to understand and what he wants isn't always clear. I will say a little brown nosing never hurt, it was evident in this class. He has his days, somedays he is extremely happy, others he will yell at the whole class. DO NOT bring your laptop to his class, he gets furious.

Very understanding guy, if you go to him for help, have gone to class consistently, and remotely pay attention in class, he will do anything to help you out. If you do not write well he will help you fix whatever your problem is. Three research type essays, as well as a couple creative type essays throughout the semester.

Personally I LOVED THE GUY..!! He was really cool and down to earth. Loved cracking jokes with us, guess you could say we had a good group. Way to intelligent though. You ask him a question and he pretty much gives you an answer as if you were one of his grad students or he repeats what he just said. Great teacher I highly recommend him!!

Awful. Sings musicals. Gets off topic a lot. Only grades well if you write the way he does. Thinks his writing is the best and always uses it as examples.Likes to hear the sound of his own voice. Haven't learned asingle thing in the class except to research all my professors before signing up for classes.DONT TAKE HIM IF YOU CAN TAKE ANOTHER PROF!

Comment:

If willing to work, so is he. Knowledgeable. If you come to him for help, instead of just complaining and whining about it, he'll help you. Passionate, can't help but want to try. High expectations.Goodness forbid you actually have to work for something. Listen, pay attention, and put forth the effort, and you'll succeed.Don't expect an easy class.
