Dylan Carpenter ENGL282 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/09/2024	I took ENGL282 as a general education requirement. The readings are 20 pages long due each class and the text is not easy to read but you can probably get through the class with just skimming the text. There is no lecture set up; he just talks and you have to read through the lines and pick up the relevant information. Nice guy for sure. Was not really receptive to my questions and did not make me feel like I could ask questions especially about assignment requirements or content. Take it if you have to but if you have another option definitely go for that instead.
Dylan Carpenter ENGL282 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/06/2024	This class was honestly really enjoyable. The discussion each meeting was engaging and made the readings bearable despite their length. He was very nice and showed true concern for his students. Also, his grading is so lenient as far as regular assignments go. On essays he can be somewhat picky when it comes to feedback, but it's only because of passion. It hardly reflects on your grade. If you want to take 282, Dylan is your only option. (He's also really funny!)
Alexis Walston ENGL282 Expecting an A Anonymous 01/19/2024	Professor Lexi is great! She's so kind and is quite flexible. She legit spells out the class for you through her Google docs and is extremely organized, which believe it or not, most professors aren't. The class isn't terribly difficult though there is a fair amount of reading and writing. Every class there was a 300 word discussion due on the chapter assigned the night before. Most of the assignments during the class period were group work which was also quite great. For essays there is a checklist you must complete to get an A. If you read and do the discussion and participate you'll do well!
Michael Israel ENGL282 Expecting an A Anonymous 05/18/2023	Professor Israel's classed lacked structure and he often went on tangents that left us feeling like we hadn't learnt much. There are a lot of readings and it's important to keep up with these as they are tested on in the midterm and the final exam. It often felt like we didn't really learn much in class. I can't say I'd recommend this class to someone in the future.
