Super chill professor. He gives really good feedback on essays, which there are only three. He grades fairly, and it's not hard to get an A if you just come to class and turn in your assignments. He really makes his students feel comfortable and is pretty forgiving/understanding of personal circumstances.
Such a loving guy and a good lecturer. There are useful take-aways. He grades fairly, 50% on how much effort you spent and 50% on your actual work. He mentioned in the first class that if all works were done on an average level, then you are expected to get an A-. But it is not hard to get an A. His one-on-one meetings are really helpful!
I loved taking a class with Baron! He was caring, funny, & the classroom environment was really fun to be in. One of my all time favorite classes & the readings were interesting, so I could actually get through them! I'll be looking for other classes he's teaching & trying to get into them lol
Probably my favorite class I've taken so far! (I'm a 2nd year.) He's just such a lovely person and super accommodating. It's rare for me to find a class where so many of the readings are so good. His class had a really good balance of lecture and discussion. Take his classes! Take them!
It was a class with fun reading material. 2 essays: 1 about 750 words and a final paper about 1500 words. Prompts were easy to comprehend & he gives great feedback. A lot of reading material (as expected from a UD English class), MUST attend class (will call u out if u skip), & participation definitely matters (sometimes cold-calls you in class).
Lectures were very interesting and was one of my favorite classes so far loved the book selection for detective fiction!!
