    This class has completely changed my perspective on literature classes. Only Mason Schoen could manage to make Beowulf interesting! He's engaging, young, and manages to be light-hearted and humorous throughout class while also going on tangents discussing serious issues. This class is interesting, engaging, and actually FUN to go to! he doesn't take attendance and he says he'll give quizzes and then doesn't. You don't have to come to class but its a fun class.

    TIshna genuinely cares about her students in terms of how they are doing in her class AND truly makes an effort to get personal with them. There were about 4 books we needed to read, I never read a whole book but it wouldve helped. 2 essays and a couple short responses were the only assignments. Attendance is mandatory but not bad. Go to her office hours and optional lectures. ...Continue reading

    This class has completely changed my perspective on literature classes. Only Mason Schoen could manage to make Beowulf interesting! He's engaging, young, and manages to be light-hearted and humorous throughout class while also going on tangents discussing serious issues. This class is interesting, engaging, and actually FUN to go to! he doesn't take attendance and he says he'll give quizzes and then doesn't. You don't have to come to class but its a fun class. He goes off on tangents a lot, and he does a lot of swearing and preaching, but its usually lighthearted. also he talks about getting high a lot... ...Continue reading
