Comment:
Amazing professor. Really in love with poetry & knows what he's talking about. His class was so interesting & refreshing, I was so upset we had to change to online this semester. It was my first poetry class & I hope to take more with him. No HW, 3 papers. All basically reflections/opinions on poems. Fair grader. Show up to class & you'll be fine.

Boring. No group discussion. Lectures for full 45min and always goes overtime. Major snoozefest. Didnt learn anything.

There are four papers in the class, so if you don't like writing then don't take it. The professor is enthusiastic about contemporary poetry, and encourages conversation during class. I would recommend this class for anyone with an interest in contemporary poetry not just english majors.

You are expected to turn in an original poem every week - he provides optional but fun prompts - and 3 essays during the semester. He makes it easy for his students to apply his criticisms to better their craft. Nice, laid back guy. You will leave the class a better writer, guaranteed. If you can't get into his class, K. Graber is amazing as well!

Interesting guy, fun class, very fun to listen do -- BUT -- for poetry wokshops, he needs help watching the clock!! Otherwise, some people will get 20 minutes and the rest just 5. That was annoying.

He really keeps the subject matter fresh. He's also really excited about our workshops, and provides very useful feedback.

I don't think he really understands the new polyphonic chthonism, but he did help me understand why those white chickens were there.
