WRIT2 . Schranck J B 8 Days Ago

If you show up and do the homework you will get a good grade. Very fair grader and extremely nice guy. Learned so much in this class (and it was only like 20 kids!).

He is on quite the power-trip, also likes to single out one student and critique them in front of the class.

Really great teacher overall. Gives detailed feedback on the essays assigned. Classes were chill and the workload was extremely light. Attendance is mandatory though.

WRIT2 . Schranck J B 1 Year, 7 Months Ago

I do NOT recommend this professor. I received an A on essays and major assignments and after meeting with him during office hours, he indicated I would pass, only to send me an email over the summer writing that he forgot about a clause in the syllabus that if you miss a SINGLE assignment you fail the class. It was shocking.

I loved his class. He is such a nice guy. You can tell that he genuinely cares about his students.

He's super nice. He always tries to look at things from the students' perspective and is really considerate of the fact that we have work outside of his class. He also gives really detailed and helpful feedback on essays. His curriculum is way more interesting than other Writing 2 classes.
