Walter Hesford really cares about his students and puts allot of extra effort into his class. He can be a little hard to comprehend, but overall I had a good experience in his class. His essays can be tough though.

Comment:
My feelings about the uselessness of this class aside, Walter is such a mix. He takes forever to clearly explain assignments (sometimes until the class before it's due) and is hard to understand overall. However, he is very nice and easy to work with.

Dr. Hesford is a great professor so far and he really cares about his class. There is lots of reading as is to be expected for a literature class, but he will really help you to understand it.

Comment:
This is the second class I've taken from Walter (the first being ENGL 215) and I hated both of them. He would mumble a lot in class, and he often got side-tracked. Will not take his class again. There's tons of reading for each class. If he specifies a certain book, get that one, because there's usually an extra reading in it that you'll need.

There is a lot of reading for this class, usually 100-150 pages a day. Although he's the embodiment of the Absent Minded Professor, Walter is intelligent, insightful, and nice!

great discussions, but there are no rhetorical questions (even if it seems so), so if you take him, beware!
