Seriously, run for your life. This guy was horrible. I had Romanticism at 8am and he would be like screaming with anger or enthusiasm about Wordsworth or Wollstonecraft--way to early for that kind of teaching. He quizzed us every morning at the beginning of class and that's how he took attendance. Also, for the final research essay, DUDE GAVE US HIS MASTERS THESIS AS AN EXAMPLE TO LIVE UP TO. And I quote the following: "I want to see your thesis in the abstract, and then never see it again!" or "I want you to mention your research, and then never see it again!" When I asked him for help on finding good research/sources after I said my efforts were futile to live up to his standards, he said "well then I don't know, you shouldn't be an English major then. This is what we do." Really? I'm a transfer student doing English Honors and am in FIVE different honors societies, AND GRADUATING WITHIN A YEAR'S TIME and you're telling me I should change my major? Cool bro. And to top it off, he emailed us our final grade before they came out. DUDE PROMISED ME AN A- AND I GOT A B+ WTF
