This guy is all over the place. Quite the rambling man. Loves to talk about sex and spends most of his time trying to work his computer. Would avoid taking this guy if possible.

Gary is passionate and an incredible resource. If you need anything, he will help. His wisdom is evident in his teachings of poetry and cinema. His personal films are stunning, and his love for the cinema permeates his classrooms and any student willing to open their mind and experience new and wonderful poetry and film.

Wow, he's still showing the slaughterhouse film? I attended Alb back in the 80's and he was doing it then. Thought he'd get some new material! GARY!

Comment:

Not helpful or willing to discuss grades. Sometimes difficult to understand his grading techniques and very difficult to get ahold of. mandatory film screenings to attend just about every tuesday night. Choices of films are not interesting, and sometimes inappropriate. I would not take this class again if i was given the option.

definitely enjoyed the movie clips he showed in class, but for GODS SAKE PUT AWAY THE LASER POINTER!!! that was really annoying. the reading was pretty boring, but the tests fairly easy if you knew the main info. beware of his slaughterhouse film he made back in god knows when. ugh.

He makes films so he knows how to teach them, yet he some times gets caught in the tidel wave of his own thought.

One of the best profs at Albright; his class developed for me a respect for poetry that I didn't have before I took it. He really knows his subject.
