If you needs a professor with flashy iclickers and complicated presentations, this is not the class for you. Professor Strongman is a old fashioned professor who just talks to you the whole class about the book and the themes present. One book a week (anywhere from 100-250 pages) and a reading response due at the end of the week.

The entire grading is based on the TA, so you better luck out. The professor is really boring and lectures in what seems like slow motion. He takes attendance during the lecture with a piece of paper and he really does not care about his students as he did not round up my 93.86% to a 94%. Also, he has 94% as an A and anything under is an A- :((

Strongman is a great professor who cares about the subjects he talks about. The course was very heavy with reading (one novel a week around 100-250 pages), but the books were enjoyable and very interesting. Grading all depends on one weekly response that is 500 words, and one final paper. Attendance is graded in both the lecture and the section.

A good professor that will draw you into the material. Reading is heavy, but most of the time, a simple summary and logical thinking are enough to understand and answer the questions given.

Professor rambles a lot during lecture, yet forces attendance. I had a funeral to attend on the same day as lecture. When I asked for an excused absence, he said I could join Zoom from my phone. At a funeral. 200-300 word books to read a week plus a two page writeup. Easy TA = Easy A. My TA was very particular; I had to really work to get my grade.

This class seems like alot at first with weekly readings which can be kind of long and a weekly written assignment but it wasn't too bad. I was able to get the reading and assignment done in a day. His lectures are full with information and he goes over the weekly assignment questions. Overall this class wasn't difficult at all as long as you read.
