Comment:
You might mistake his passion for pomposity because he talks like a perfectly grammatical essay, but he really loves what he teaches. His tests are intimidating, but manageable if you've kept up with the readings and followed the lecture/study guides.

Absolutely WONDERFUL! I'm almost through with grad school (after taking a break) and I still remember things I learned in Dr. Dixon's class. He was always available to help with anything imaginable, always courteous, and always concerned for the students' success.

Comment:
If you want one "right" interpretation that you must "learn" and then regurgitate, Dixon is the professor for you. If you would like room to think freely and explore varying viewpoints, he won't be your favorite GCC prof at all. My main impression of this man is that he comes off as arrogant and self-absorbed.

I looked forward to every class. Oral Interp is classic stories, poems, and dramas read to you everyday. Stressful when it's your time to perform, but the enviorment is sooo supportive! It was amazing. World Drama offered a lot of insight and a relaxed atmosphere. Dr. Dixon is such an asset to our deparment! What a wonderful man and prof.

Very good lectures, nicest possible human being. He obviously loves what he does. Never fear required performances (as in Shakespeare) even if you aren't the acting type - he never embarrasses anyone.
