Comment:

Mr. Griffith is an amazing teacher. You think he forces opinions??Wrong. It is ironic that the required text for his class is Oleanna yet you accuse him of forcing beliefs on you. A play about learning HOW to think, not what to think. He has high expectations of his students, so yes his class will be hard. I am a straight A student because of him.

Comment:

He is a terrible excuse for a teacher. He's rude, forces his opinions and beliefs on you, and he excepts you to know everything with out teaching you anything. He is the worst teacher I have ever had in my life. As a straight A student, I dropped out of his class because he was that bad. Don't sign up for this class.

Comment:

Mr. Griffith needs to teach a different class. He shouldn't be teaching students who are in English 100. His style of teaching is through ridicule and through massive amounts of homework and classwork which he hardly goes over. Don't bother asking a question in class. He'll just stomp all over you and make you look like an idiot. He enjoys humility

OMFG!! Hes the worst teacher! Doesnt care about you and also always has his point of view never listens to what you say! He talks about things that arent related to English in any way accept the long boring speech of his. We start the semester with 35 students and 4 weeks later had 5 student! RUN, FAST!

Comment:

I've never had a teacher this bad in my life! All he talked about was his EXTREME LEFT WING agenda. This is an ENGLISH class not political science. I CAME TO LEARN ENGLISH!! If someone opposes him, he uses his learned use of English and Rhetoric to pound the student into the ground. Even if the discussion was valid, he doesn't allow fair arguement

Comment:

A VERY BAD MAN! All he does is **** about President Bush and conservatives in general, he's anti-military, pro-bolshevick. If you want to be indoctrinated to be a communist take him, otherwise get Ms. Murphy. 90% of the class dropped because of his elitist demeanor. It seems a****taught him how to teach, actually a****would be better.

This man is a monster. He barekly rtalks about English and only cares about promting his liberal politics. He is a pinko commi who doesnt shut up on politics and wont teach English. He singles people out lambasts them for their political views. Does not teach test material and then blame sthe class for a low score. NEVER HAVE GRIFFTH

Avoid him like the pest.He just talks about politics.He is a neoliberal or some right wing denomination pushing an agenda.He is an egotistical maniac and despises non english speakers,affirmative action among other things(cell phones, go figure why...)He really shouldn't be a teacher but one of those homeless nuts complaining about the world.AVOID

Comment:

Terrible+VERY boring. Uses class to push own political views. 2/3 of my class dropped. Extremely hard. I'm a student at UCD and aced english class there but barely passed his. Basically if he disagrees with your opinion in an essay he gives you a D. Depressing hearing another class having a good time next door while I wanted to run out screaming.

Comment:

One word: Patronizing. Wait, condescending and elitist too. So three words. Smartest man I've ever encountered in college. Brilliant man utterly lacking in people skills. Do not think you can take this class and coast through. This is not a coasting class. you have been warned.

Comment:

He is pretty hard but his lectures and assigned books make you really think. He is always willing to help students out & pushes back due dates. He is interested with you learning something...if came to college to gain some knowledge, definitely take him. He was one of the best professors I've ever taken!
