Arrogrant? Yes. Pompous? You bet. Self-absorbed? Probably. But if I could lecture like that, I would be a bit full of myself too. An engaging public speaker, a fascinating story teller, a demanding professor. This class is as good as it gets. If you want the easy grade, if you want to hide in class, if you just want your C just stay away and take a

I don't know how anyone can not like Dr. Carter. His lectures are engaging and fascinating. He is the best English professor at CSUB, and I'm sorry to see him go. He will be missed.

Dr. Carter is awesome. He expects intelligence. These "Accommodate me Now!" morons are scary.

Comment:

He sure likes the sound of his voice a lot more than I do. Bring a tape recorder to class and reguritate what he says on your papers; independent analysis of literature is not welcome in his class, which makes him the stereotypical know-it-all with enough ego to fill a hot-air balloon.

Comment:

Carter is passionate about what he teaches. His enthusiasm makes the already great material, even greater. The class will be difficult if you struggle with writing. Tip: Take really good notes, with particular focus on his interpretation of the material. They are the key to the midterm & final.

Comment:

He doesn't care about the students. He is more concerned with himself. He loves to give D and D+ on papers. It is his favorite two grades. Then he will give you a C on the Final paper. It will also be your final grade, since he doesn't keep a gradeboo

A dynamic lecturer. Basically only a midterm and a final paper. Did not get the midterm back until the last week of class, so if you have not had him before, you are writing your final paper with no idea of how he grades and how he will like your writing

very original, intelligent, and funny. A great teacher. Students will not get an A without working hard and showing some interest, and that's a good thing.

Yes, he is a hard grader but his lectures are awesome and he knows just about everything one could ever know about literature, grammar, and the english language. An INCREDIBLE teacher. If you take his class, you will be challenged...but it is worth it

Comment:

Read all the books, did both papers, and still got a C. Class consists of two papers. Bad thing is, you don't know what it takes to pass the class until you've done the first paper. likes to give Ds on that first paper. Dont recommend.
