Review:
This class is by far one of the most frustratingly boring classes I have ever taken. Professor Whitney's choice of material could not be more out dated. To date we have read books that were written in the early 1900's, a book about whales, and are now beginning to read fairytales. Furthermore, perhaps the one thing that has bothered us all the most is her sheer fakeness. She will proceed to criticize while maintaining a smile. If only I had be warned beforehand this would be a class that all 20 students would dread attending.

Workload:
Response Paper for every class (we meet twice a week) which must be 250 words long. This is not bad at all unless she gives you not only the response paper but also a research paper due on the same day, which has occurred twice. We have had six papers up to date all at roughly 1750 words. Some readings are fairly straightforward whereas others are extremely confusing. Furthermore the readings are very outdated, I had expected to read books more of this century. The assignments seemed simple but no one ever knew what to expect from the Prof. grading wise.
