Quarter: N/A
Grade: N/A
Nov. 14, 2008

Taken: Study of the American Novel

Rundown:

the professor: funny, likable, very friendly, encourages student participation, loves to get to know his students personally even though there are so many, one of the few college professors you will come across that can name students in a 100 person lecture

the lectures: disorganized, mott has a powerpoint, but its pretty much useless, he loves to talk and have a good time so he often digresses and goes off on weird tangents that are completely unhelpful

the discussions: mandatory, will actually help you understand the readings a lot better. glen is a great TA

the material: books are different each quarter depending on what mott feels like, they are sometimes interesting, sometimes really boring, but you get a nice eclectic mixture

the grading: not an easy GE, grade based on two essays, one midterm and one final; essays are graded harder than I thought they should be, and its hard to finish the tests in the time allotted

So take this class if you enjoy reading and especially writing. But be prepared, Mott may be a great guy, but not the most effective professor. And I heard his honors section is fun, and helps towards understanding the material.
