COURSE TAKEN: Postmodern Culture (Honors). Greg is easily one of the most engaging teachers on campus. He is insightful and hilarious, and you learn a lot without even knowing it. Class feels fun and open, while at the same time it's rigorous enough to significantly improve your writing. His postmodern culture class was challenging, and it articulated a lot of things I was curious about. Ever since I took it, it's been my favorite class. I highly recommend taking a class with Greg, he has standards that he'll encourage you to meet without stress, and you'll be amazed at your own capabilities. And he makes class a blast.

Honest, EC3 is one of the most useful classes you will ever take in college. Greg has done a wonderful job. He does not have many assignments and he helps you through each one. And you can basically write about anything you want as long as what you write is a social/cultural commentary. Writing something you really like makes writing fun. Greg's reading are very interesting and funny. Take him if you have the chance. Great guy, great class.

Winter 2019 - Hated this class, hated the professor more. He's basically what happens when that annoying kid in your philosophy class grows up. It's pretty evident from the first class you take with him that he loves being thought of as the quirky teacher, which basically just means he's willing to swear during class and throw in a few jokes. He also consistently interrupted students during the class, often to make fun of their points of view.

Greg is an excellent professor. I took his Honors 11W class, Postmodern Society and Culture (not listed on the drop-down list), and it was quite enjoyable. He is very passionate and knowledgeable about the subject, and the discussions he held in class with the students were always thought-provoking. The readings were shocking and strange and interesting, and the three papers I had to write for the quarter were really fun in that students were able to structure them in their own style. Participation is important, so throw out any and all ideas you have about the readings!

I took HC Postmodern Culture with Greg and it was an amazing experience. It was a lot of reading, but other than that not too much work. We had to write 3 papers. For two of the papers we wrote a rough draft and went over it with him. This was very helpful. For our other paper we read a rough draft of it aloud to the class. This was much less frighting than expected. It's such a small class that you know everyone really well. I highly recommend this class to anyone who needs a Writing II/English GE credit. It's a blast and super interesting.

Greg was a great professor. I am an engineering major and his class was a nice change of pace from what I normally do. I thoroughly enjoyed our discussions about social policy, economics, or whatever else we all thought was relevant. I also really appreciated that he was always willing to meet me outside of class to review my writing or presentations multiple times before the due date. He was also very flexible with due dates and assignment content, so it made the class that much more enjoyable. Definitely take this guy!
