Professor Keller's lectures are amazing and were honestly the best part of my week. She is extremely caring and willing to help you. However, there is a lot of reading and if you do not genuinely enjoy literature you will not enjoy this class. If you aren't looking for a challenge and just something to satisfy comm B I would go with something else.Rate My Professors ↗

Prof. Keller's lectures are an absolute bore and she expects everyone to have the same amount of passion for her class as she does (even though most people are just in it for satisfying a com b). Also if you dont want to read 50-60 pages a night, turn back now.Rate My Professors ↗

Lectures are actually interesting and the required novels/short readings are very interesting.Rate My Professors ↗

Took this class for Comm B and lit credit. Obviously it is a lot of reading if it fulfills those two things. Lecture did get boring, but if literally all you did was read, attend lecture, and spend at least three good hours on both papers you should be fine in the class. Overall it made me think, and I enjoyed it.Rate My Professors ↗

Go to class, get the attendance grade. Read the material. Give up half way through. Decide to buy audible. Hate yourself because you spent your weekends reading and not getting lit. Pass because you attended lecture.Rate My Professors ↗

Typical literature class. Lots of reading and lots of analyzing particular texts and specific passages, words, or sentences.Rate My Professors ↗
