Dr. Cunningham grades you on your ability to understand the text rather than your ability to repeat his opinions about the text/topic/whatever. His class is a nice change if you're willing to show up

Comment:

Richard calls individuals out and puts you on the spot when it is time to answer questions about the books you have read, and it is very intimidating. He is very clear about what he expects from his students and teaches you well. I learned more in a 6-hour course with him than I did in all of high-school. Over all a good prof.

Richard is the most laid back and down to watch professor I've ever had. The frequent dropping of the F-Bomb and his killer explanations of old English works keep my attention and interest throughout the whole class.

Comment:

Cunningham is my favourite prof in the English department. I've taken a class entirely because he was teaching it. He's interesting, hilarious, and really knows his stuff. I actually really liked his assignment/class structures. Just an excellent prof all around; I recommend him to all of my friends!

Great man, amazing prof. He's tough, and you actually have to work to earn his respect, but he values hard work and what you learn is invaluable. Intelligent and humorous... keeps the class interested. I highly reccommend him.

Never thought I'd like Paradise Lost until I got into this class. Never thought I'd hear the verb "boinking" used to describe what Adam and Eve did. Funny class, but tough. Who says great is easy?
