I took vegan lit, he is an amazing lecturer and very insightful. The course is really interesting, and he offers lots of extra credit. You NEED to do the readings! Not a difficult class if you pay attention and read. I could not recommend this class more.

He was a good professor, but you HAVE to do the readings or else you won't pass. This is not an easy A class so don't take it if that's what you're looking for.

He is super passionate about this class! It is super interesting, but do not take it if you do not go to class, or you do not do reading.

Prof. Larue is very passionate about vegan Literature, he really loves what he does, and you can really tell through his awesome lectures. Exams were all handwritten, 6 SAQs and one essay. There were 3 exams total, you definitely need to do all the readings and take notes on lectures if you want to get an A in the class.

I took vegan lit (CLIT 186FL) and I loved it. This class may have been better than other classes with him because he has a passion for vegan literature and has written a book about it so he might be different in other classes, but I had a great experience. He is very knowledgeable but not pretentious or preachy, funny, and very approachable
