    "comment": "I took African Story Teller 210 back in 1992-1993, this was by far the worst class taken.  Prof Scheub used to be good but after getting a bad review from Rolling Stones of it being an easy push off class, he became hardcore around my time of taking his lecture.  If you don't agree with his viewpoint of the MOTIF literature he will fail you period.",

I struggled to take notes because he literally wants you to only use his analysis of the stories and nothing else, but in the end I just said exactly what he wanted and got an A. I also did the extra honors paper, which was 2 drafts.",
