I took this course in the summer. I'm not a big fan of english classes but she made it really interesting. Classes were mostly discussion, with some lecture on elements of the literature. Our grade was made up of daily homework and a take-home final. All the discussion and lecture points were useful for the final.

I've taken Writing 2, Engl 10, Engl 115, Engl 187, and an Independent Studies class with her. She is by far the best professor in the English department. She care more about your interest level than a stressful work-load. If you get the chance, take a class from her, even if it doesn't sound interesting.

I found her mother-ly. She cares for the overall well-bring of her students, academic or nonacademic issues. Good storyteller and relates life lessons to subject material. Might be intimidating at first, but shes totally approachable. She'll reach out to you if you reach out to her first.

Took her for summer.. really nice and loving teacher. She teaches both at CC and here. If you do all the work (which is easy) and coem to class every day. Its gauranteed A+.

Great class, great teacher. The books were fun to read and gave great insight into America and into the people who helped to shape it. Assignments were short and consistant; a bunch of 2-pagers, no big papers. All papers were personal responses, a great way to develop individual writing style. Reccomend this class, and any other taught by Cynthia.
