His classes are interesting/entertaining. Very old school lit- reads classics and discusses major and broad themes. Unlike many professors in YU, no post-modernism. He is also very skeptical toward systems of thought and dogmatism. To those who are concerned, he is a heretic. He's also pretty left-wing politically, although he recognizes the liberals' shortcomings. He pushes students to think and poses challenging questions. Sometimes allows for students to rewrite papers. Workload is manageable. Recommend (but too difficult for Comp I). | |
