Weekly discussion posts, that were intensive, but as long as you did them to the best of abilities you were totally fine. We also planned+ wrote a short story-- took some effort but not too bad. Very caring and accommodating prof and interesting class! ",

    "comment": "Porter was great! His lectures were fun and usually involved an activity (for attendance, but could be prob be done virtually). He chooses books by lesser known, smaller authors, often local, who then speak in class. Creative writing assignments are done in tandem w/ the reading. Group work is limited to small group discussion. Take this class!",
