Professor Bodiford talks EXTREMELY FAST. If you want to get down everything he says, bring a tape recorder or have other students distract him with questions while you finish writing what he said five minutes ago. Overall though, his class was challenging, but not impossible. His midterm and final were pretty easy, if you can write well and fast. But on the research paper, don't expect too much for your grade. He seems to have become more lenient grade-wise though, after reading some of these old posts. Who knows, maybe he's read them :D
