Comment:
Professor Saccamano is a pleasure to listen to in lectures. While the material can sometimes get quite dry, he makes up for this by his unique in depth analysis of the plays we read; we viewed them through religious, political, sexual, and various other fascinating lenses. Really makes you think about the impact of identification with theatrics.

I got the idea that this guy was a phony. I did fine in the course, but he seemed more interested in showing off than anything else.

Comment:
I graduated with honors in English in 2001 -- this was the one class I couldn't stand even though I did well in it. The prof's not actually that bad, but the readings were endless and he gave quizzes to see that we'd read all 1,000,000 pages of Tom Jones and Clarissa. I wanted to kill myself.

This professor genuinely cares about the students, and he is passionate about the literature he covers. He's one of those instructors you never forget; he was my professor in 1988-89!

The lectures were entertaining and provided fascinating background. The professor is totally great-- he chooses interesting material and presents it well and doesn't take crap from stupid kids. Woo-Hoo.
