Comment:

I took his Literary Analysis class and absolutely loved it!! By far favorite class and professor at Davidson so far!! He's is so accessible outside of class and very helpful and insightful. 100% suggest taking a class taught by him. He isn't an easy grader but very fair.

Dr. Ingram is hands down one of the best professors I have ever had. He makes class fun and engaging, and class always flew by. He is incredibly knowledgeable and made me love the material. His intro to Shakespeare class is amazing and even if you don't have much of an interest, you will get into it. Would highly recommend taking his classes.

Randy is the best professor I have ever had. He is a great guy and is always willing to help you when you need it. He will routinely expand office hours to help students and will bring candy to class. The one caveat is that he is a tough grader, but if you work with him, he will always help you out. If you ever have the chance, take Randy!

Dr. Ingram is arguably one of the best professors I have taken at Davidson. He is very knowledgable about anything Shakespeare and his Intro to Shakespeare class is amazing! He's not easy but not too difficult to do well. You just have to put in effort and if you genuinely enjoy Shakespeare it helps alot! He's also amazing to casually chat with!

Dr. Ingram is easily one of the best teachers I've ever had. He made both class and typically dry readings thoroughly enjoyable. He's hilarious and will have you laughing the whole class period. DEFINITELY take this class!!

Considering this was not my favorite subject matter, Dr. Ingram made this class fantastic. I loved every minute of it...even having to do the readings I hated. One of the best professors I've ever had.

Each of Randy's Brit Lit classes is organized around a clear thesis. Listen for it - it will help you along. Randy makes this otherwise boring material worthwhile. Wonderful, hilarious professor. Randy is a MUST for english majors and the overall davidson experience.

Comment:

Average lecturer & capricious grader w/very unclear expectations of written work. Some long, very dry, and boring readings. Class would've been a complete chore if he weren't at least likeable as a human being. As a prof., I've definitely had better; his appearance, dinners, movies, etc., don't change that. I'm not a fan.

Dr. Ingram is an excellent professor. Unfortunately, I don't think I got the most of him as one because our class was a seminar. I wish he had said more and my classmates less. Nonetheless, he got us excited about Shakespeare. The evening movie showings and dinner at his house were a nice touch.

Incredible. Inspired, witty, brilliant--easily the best professor I've had. You'll work hard but he's worth it. His class always felt like something out the "Dead Poet's Society." On sabbitical 05-06.

Amazing professor. Very funny. Knows what he's talking about. Very fair, though tough, grader. Very interested in the material. Has us over for movies and dinner classes. Bottom line: The kind of prof you came here for.
