Winter 2024 - After reading reviews of Dr. Shuger from previous terms, I was a little nervous about taking this course, especially as it was my first upper-division class in the English major. After having completed it, however, and staying connected with Dr. Shuger to pursue individual research interests post-quarter, I cannot sing her praises enough. Dr. Shuger is a wonderfully thoughtful professor who, though occasionally zany and slightly too brilliant for the average human to comprehend, truly cares about her students and their education. After noticing that students were unable to make her in-person office hours, Dr. Shuger scheduled additional evening office hours for students to ask questions about confusing portions of the text. She also responds quickly to emails and provided her phone number for us to text questions if need be. Though the quizzes are not "easy," consistent participation ensures they are not hard, either. I felt she was a fair grader on the two assigned papers, as well. Overall, this class has greatly influenced the future of my educational career--I am now considering pursuing a PhD in Early Modern Literature, largely thanks to Dr. Shuger!
