Very funny. Very old. He did a great job of promoting intelligent discussion in class with out people just shouting out their beliefs. Take him before he kick the bucket.

Comment:
A wonderful professor, with a great sense of humor. I really enjoyed his teaching style. Also, if you do bad on one of his exams (there are three), the end essays (we have to write two) are a nice way to redeem yourself. I made a C- on the first test but I got an A overall.

He's an old wallygagga. This class might be okay if this guy had a voicebox. I'd rather jump off of fox hall than take his class again.

When taking his tests use examples from the text. He gave us 3 exams. For the first one, we were given the questions ahead of time. For the second, it was a take home. The third exam is simmilar to the first but without questions given ahead of time. Write down what he says in class and you don't have to read the text. Take notes!

Soooo boring. If you took American Lit in high school you'll be bored. He's a funny little old man. He tries to make it interesting, but you will fall asleep by the end of the course. He's a fair grader, though.

He is very nice and responds to emails and questions. But you need good attendance in order to know what is going on. If you go to class you don't really need to do the readings. The tests are okay as long as you do the study questions. TAKE NOTES!

He is a very nice, funny man, and his class lectures are informative and useful. If you take great notes, you'll get an A. He can lean towards the boring side, but so do most lectures.
