I took Dr. Tom's ENG200 class online and it was the best decision I have ever made. I previously failed the course with another professor who was awful. Dr. Tom's readings were actually interesting and I didn't mind spending the time to read them. If you do your group discussions and turn in your essays, you'll be fine!

Comment:
Dr. Tom's classes are very laidback. He is a good professor for ENG 203, but I wouldn't take him for an advanced creative writing specific class. There's normally a pop quiz each week. The first half of the semester is devoted to learning the basics of poetry, fiction, and non-fiction writing. The second half is focused on writing and workshopping.

Comment:
Hunley is a very chill professor. There was a lot of reading in the course, but the reading selections were actually very interesting. Despite this being ENG200 we never wrote a single paper the entire course. All of the grades were in class quizzes and a single test. Overall a very easy class to pass with a high grade.

Fave prof in the dept (my major). Stereotypical poetry teacher: has you call him Dr. Tom; super chill but will call people out on their BS; makes dad jokes. Quizzes a lot in the beginning but announces them all. But the reading's interesting anyway. Really knows his stuff. Lets you have lots of input on the 3 big assignments near end of semester.

Fave prof in the dept (my major). Stereotypical poetry teacher: has you call him Dr. Tom; super chill but will call people out on their BS; has you write an excuse poem to get an absence excused; makes dad jokes. Really knows his stuff. No quizzestestspapers in this class. Just show effort and turn things in on timetalk to him if you can't.

Comment:
I've loved taking American Poetry with Dr. Tom! He knows literally everything about poetry and poets. It's not an easy class exactly, but if you actually read the poems and listen you should be fine. The only big paper is a self-chosen topic, so you can do something you really care abouthave interest in. Quizzes are announced, but DON'T miss them.

If you have ever wanted to take a course where the prof plays favorites, doesn't teach, gives poor feedback, hates women, and you read relatively nothing in the course, this is this class for you. If you want to learn anything, take this class with someone else.

Dr. Tom, as he has you call him, is awesome! Really nice guy. Clearly knows and is interested in what he's talking about. Half the semester we workshopped in small groups, and half as a full class. He gives great feedback on poems. Gives lots of time to write in class. Class was easy AND interesting, and I learned a lot! Highly recommend!

Comment:
Dr. Hunley is a good guy. But there is something all kinds of wrong with this class. Oftentimes I found myself pressed to write poems off of prompts I had no interest in and then graded according to the quality of those poems. I think it would be much better to provide students with tools to write and give objective tests. Too much subjectivity.

Everybody passes! The work is not as important as making sure nobody's feelings are hurt.
