He's an adorable little old man, and though he rambles a lot in class he holds interesting conversations and the course is easy.

A brilliant man with an extraordinary depth of feeling. One of the best teachers I've ever had and someone who guided me, gently, firmly, along my own course when I needed it most. Thank you Dr. Kasten.

Nice guy good professor. Not very clear for essays or assignments but in class is a very good teacher and tries to get you involved. The more you get involved the better you will be in his class.

Comment:
Vance has a very unique style that not all may connect with. He is comfortable with silence, and loves to entertain ideas. He won't spoon feed you- you better be prepared to do some hard thinking. He always has time for students- You might not get what you went into his office looking for, but you will come out with lots to think about.

Comment:
Encourage the students a lot, and willing to have a discussion section for their papers. This course is not too difficult if you do all the readings. He taught the class a great philosophical word - "consecutional" (which he said the Dao of the class taught him that).

VCK is a crazy man. He can be boring a lot, but he's got cool stories, and he threatened a kid with a chair once too. All around cool guy, if not a little wierd.

Kind of boring, except when he goes off on some crazy story. Also hard to understand because he trails off at the end of every sentence... if you have an option, go with Seligman, but overall a good prof
