Comment:

Browning is such a sweet teacher and he makes class so fun it really depends on your classmates. He gives three papers and usually you can create your own topic. This class is an Easy A and you will learn something about Lit Phil.

Comment:

he is a really nice guy, but his class is so boring it makes me want to scream..he will talk about assignments in detail that are going to take place at the end of semester, but hardly talks about current assignment..focuses way to much on how hard a grader he is.. he is very difficult to impress, and to pessimistic for me..

Comment:

I never used my text for this class EVER! Its all the same boring stuff we learned in high school, i used most of my papers from high school and passed with flying colors. I had to redo some of my papers but it took me like 20 mins! I WOULD take this class if you want an easy A, and sit through broing lectures.

Comment:

Lectures are pretty dull, but Browning is a really nice and easygoing teacher. One of my classmates had trouble getting email responses from him, but I never had any problems. He tries to be funny but it's usually dry humor. May be hard to pay attention in class, but it's an easy A with this professor.

Don't do it. I got A's on all my papers and still ended up with an A-. He doesn't respond to emails and he always uses lame excuses. Worst waste of time ever. Save yourself the pain of Gerald.

Comment:

I think most of the negative comments come from people who didn't put in the effort to get a good grade, you know, the ones who slack off. Mr. Browning is a superb teacher who was VERY helpful to me. He understood if I had problems and needed help. I EASILY made an A, no revisions necessary, simply by following his instructions. Take him!

Comment:

Browning is absolutely horrible. It's impossible to get anything out of his lectures. He rambles about the same crap every single day. I had to redo almost every paper to get an A, although it's easy to fix your grades. I would rather have a harder teacher than sit through any of his lectures again. It's painfully boring. Don't take him.

This class was extremely easy. You can pretty much get at least a B no matter how terrible your papers are.

Comment:

OMG, this class was so painfully boring. It took several class sessions to explain 1 assignment. Maybe it was because there were a few people in the class that I have no clue why they were admitted into the school. Need more public speaking assignments.

Don't go to lecture. There is no point. But he grades so easy. We had 4 essay papers and a research paper to do, I only did 1 essay and the research paper and I got a B+.

Comment:

OMG it was so hard to listen to this guy. I was playing games on my computer most of the time. He tells you no new information, and he's boring. Although you did often get out of class like 20 minutes early. His grading was harsher than I thought a bland professor like that could be. Overall, he was alright..

Tries to hard to be funny. He is very easy but also extremely boring. Easy grader but assaignments are hard to follow. He gives you a lot of bust work that is not graded but you have to do.

I thought this class was awesome, he was very nice and helpful. He was also very funny. It's not a class you will be stressed out about.
