JAN MIERNOWSKI

Best class I have taken at UW Madison. Miernowski is undoubtedly extremely knowledgeable, but also helpful, kind, encouraging and funny. He knows *every* student by face and makes it obvious that he deeply cares about them. I have nothing but the highest praise for Miernowski and the content, structure and pacing of the class. Bravo.

Great professor! For a 3 credit course, there is a lot of reading, but the class is fairly simple so long as you actually take the time to understand it. He does cold call, but it's not very serious, and it seems he mostly does this to keep people engaged. You can tell he cares about his students, the way he stresses how he's open to helping.

as 3 credit lit classes go this was not easy per se - lots of readings you actually have to read/understand. but he is honestly great, he does cold call everyday but its lighthearted. idek how to describe him. he's kind of insane in a good way. if you're actually interested in the topic take 303, if you want no work maybe look elsewhere.

Incredibly rude and unhelpful. He clearly has favorites and if you're not one of them you might as well drop the class. Expects you to put ALL your time into his class regardless of jobs, classes or illness. Shames you in front of everyone if you do not answer correctly or quickly enough. Tests are confusing and he changes schedule without saying.

Cares so much about his students and French literature. Could not have asked for a more interesting and fun class. Yes, there is work but he makes it easy for you to want to do the work if that makes sense. Such a fun class I loved it.

Dude is insane but lowkey chill at the same time. He's always in a rush yet somehow never late for anything. He seems to have 48 hours in a day with all the effort he puts in.
