    Quarter Taken: Fall 2022 In-Person
    Grade: A+

    This is a great writing 2 class. Robert is truly so passionate about his students and their success, and he puts so much effort into giving good feedback on essays. The class grade was based on two essays, but we only ended up doing one essay because of the TA strike. The readings were very engaging and were mostly contemporary, which I think makes this class worthwhile even if you're not an English major.
