Comment:
RH 330 is not a terribly interesting course. House, however, will help you get through it. He might be a bit challenging at times, but so long as you have an interest and enjoy learning from him, you will do just fine. As another thought, check out his other courses, too.

He's really enthused about teaching. Class will always be fun and keep you interested. The reading is a little heavy, but it pays off when having an enthralling conversation. I'd definitely choose him again.

Totally useless class, biggest waste of money at Rose. Paid $60 for a 6 digit number for an online text w/ a ton of errors, read more than do anything productive, and learned the useful things (like resumes) in high school. House grades hard, assigns 1/3 of the book a night, and help, well you can ask, not like it's useful. Never take his class!

AHHHH!!! Way too much to read. I spent more time reading for his class than I did on homework for three other classes. He grades papers very hard. Great for in class discussion.

Quoting The Girl Next Door, "This guy's the****". Really he's an awesome prof. Easy to get a "B" with average effort. Does a lot of class discussion. I am in my first class with him and i'm taking him again in the fall. He's just a really cool guy that would be fun to hang out with outside of school. The A's tough, but House is a ****

Tech comm with House is very similar to RH131 with him. Expect to get a B with average effort, if you want the A you've got to work for it. He's extremely nice and understanding.

Comment:
House was very helpful and his quizzes were easy if you read the material. He got the class involved in his lectures, so he never just stood up in front of the class the whole time. The books we read were interesting and there was only one that wasn't enjoyable. His reaing assignments can be kind of long, but it's worth it.

Dr. House is really entertaining in class, so he makes you want to learn the material so you can participate in his always amusing lectures. He's really good at getting to know his students, as well.

He's a good professor, and that's the bottom line. He grades relatively hard, but it's fair, and it his grading actually makes you a better writer.
