Horrible professor. You learn how to review a movie. A completely useless task. Also the movies are horrible.

Comment:

He epitomizes absentmindedness. This guy is beyond tough, he is ridiculous. It was a nonsensical course that had absolutely nothing to do with English. He took ill numerous times, kept us in class for a mere half hour, and took an eternity grading papers. I will report him because evidently, he is threatened by those with an ounce of talent.

Comment:

He is a nice guy, but his class is somewhat pointless. He isnt specific on what he wants in his papers and he takes forever to give you your essays back... He always says he is sick too! Thats a lie... but his class just uses movies for essays and you only turn in 4 papers the entire semester. Not alot of stuff to do, but he grades hard

Comment:

In his 102 class all you do is watch movies, and then write reports on the said movies. It is a horrible english class and is very frustrating. I am good at english but the class simply did not EVER keep me interested.

Comment:

You will write a number of essays in this class and never get one back. He also takes a journal twice during the semester and it is a big part of your grade. His classes consisted mostly of discussion of movies and current events and had absolutely nothing to do with the essays. I do not reccomend him.

Comment:

In this class we completed 4 essays, symposium, and a moot court. We were also required to keep a journal entry each week of which we get a story from three different sources that he will give you.. Keep up with the journals... if you don't you will be screwed.. He grades pretty hard.. so if you don't write well... don't take the class!

stidham isn't a very good "english" professor....he would be a great current events professor because he is so into the news and politics that it interfers with his teaching.. i will never take him again

Comment:

his class is stupid, all you talk about is the news. you don't get your papers back so you have no idea what your grade is the entire semester. he's a nice person but he's lazy and you will get extremely frusterated with having no idea what you get on your papers.

Comment:

This class was simple. The papers are not difficult, be sure to write in your journal every week, it will help your grade. Prepare for the symposiums, they are worth a lot of your grade. He is nice, the class is not very boring.

Nice guy, has some good topics in class..but the essays are tough and you really have to work hard to get a good grade. If you have good attendance and show intrest he'll most likely help you out a bit extra to get the grade you want. Dont forget to write in the journal every week! it Helps your grade BIGTIME!

Cool teacher. Has interesting lectures on a variety of things and not just your typical literature. Essay topics are fun and different. You may not see one paper the whole semester, but if you put forth just a little effort you'll do just fine...at worse a B.

This guy is cool as Hell. I hope he actually is able to teach a film class one day as well. I had him for 101 and 102. Class consists of weekly one page journal entry session with your ASSIGNED groups that yuo sit with and work with daily. Put a lo tof effort into yuor papers! Be warned, you will be lucky to get 1 of them back.

Really cool guy, not you're average English teacher. Good variety and only work is writing. DOES NOT RETURN PAPERS and does not answer class questions, only asks "what do you think?" Don't BS papers, he does grade them at the end. Grade= A b/c I'm very experienced at writing and show effort.
