Comment:

I took Professor Coleman's classes at Northwestern quite awhile ago, but I remember him well--he was really personable, smart, and well organized. He had lots of things to say. He helped me with my writing, and helped clarify for me what it was we had to do in college papers. Great insights about literature and detailed comments on papers.

Bible as Lit... no interest in taking this course, but Dr. Coleman made it more interesting than I would have expected.

Prof. Coleman is the nicest guy in the whole world. I had an 8am with him this semester and it could get a little boring but he is super helpful and really tries to connect with his students. Great teacher!

Comment:

I took this class about 15 years ago and it remains one of my all-time favorites. The professor was great and the course was outstanding. This is high praise coming from me since I have a Ph.D. in Mathematics (and have been rated on this site at another school!) and the material for this course wasn't exactly related to my main areas of interest.

I thought the class was going to be a bore but he really brought up many good points that made you think. As long as you take notes and listen in class you should get good grades on your papers. (No TESTS!)

Great teacher and great class! He is helpful and honest. His was actually my very first college class. He always graded fair and though was a bit dull at times, was very informational. A+!

Comment:

Dr. Coleman is my favorite professor of all time. And I beg to differ with one of the other posters, Dr. Coleman taught Renaissance Literature in the fall of 1997, because I had him.

Comment:

I spent several semesters as a Lit Major and had Dr. Chapman as an advisor at one point. Don't lie to him about why you missed class - he can smell your fear. Thank you, Dr. Chapman. : )

I really like Dr. Coleman. He really knows what he's talking about. I had him for Classical Lit. The class is just a TON of reading.

While I agree with the previous commenter that Coleman is a good prof., he/she is obviously a fake, since Coleman does not teach Renaissance lit, Ivic does.

In a college of low standards and mediocrity, Coleman is a true intellectual who maintains high standards and rigor in his courses. Take Coleman and Tyler-forget the rest!!!!!!!

I really enjoyed Dr. Coleman as a professor, as he managed to infect all of his students with his love of English Literature. His classes were always interesting and fun because of his great sense of humor. He is what I strive to be.

I took Bible Lit and did an independent study with him on Shakespeare and Music. He is incredibly knowledgable in so many different areas. I grew as a future teacher and as a person becuase of him. I will never forget him.
