Comment:
I had Dr. Strojan in the mid 90s and he was hard as heck. But worth it! He taught me everything I needed to know about writing papers. In fact, I got top-notch scores with papers in every subject thanks to him. Professors like Dr. Strojan are one of a kind. If you were lucky enough to be his student, consider yourself blessed.

Dr. Strojan is one of the best professors I've had thus far. He grades hard, but you will learn so much from this man, and he's always more than willing to help you revise a paper for a better grade. I'm sure going to miss him!

It's a tough class...take good notes in class and you get to use them on exams. You better be a good writer or you wont do good in his class! Friendly guy but demands alot.

Wonderful man... Strojan is demanding, but extremely fair and goes out of his way to make assignments clear. He's also a great advisor outside of the classroom. Participate in class, people. You get what you give.

Comment:
He grades very hard, and I was never sure what exactly he was looking for in my answers. You'll usually find more on your papers in red than what you actually wrote/typed. I'm fairly certain he's related to Satan. I've always done good in classes, but did horrible in his. Avoid taking.

Comment:
The greatest professor I've ever had. He's demanding, but not overly so. Makes every learning moment your own, instead of lecturing ad infinum. A tremendous guy. His voice is kind of soft, though, so if you're hard of hearing, sit up front.

Dr. Strojan is my favorite prof. He knows his stuff, and assigns great books, stories, etc. Take him, even if its just as a gen ed requirement, you won't regret it. Tests are in essay format though.
