Reviews of professor Scott Selden

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Great choice for this class, especially if it's an elective. This class is basically like writing a bunch of poems and stories and sitting around and critiquing them with the class. He's really easy going and funny if you reach out. Assigns lots of poems/stories to read before classes, but they're not hard reads at all. Fun class altogether.

Selden is a bit awkward but he's pretty nice and you can tell he cares. Assigns TONS of written work but it's an Honors class. If you put in good effort and submit on time you will do well, but it's a time-consuming class. He went too slow at the start and spent a lot of class days on workshopping essays so the last month was pretty crammed.

Prof. Selden is a good guy who is enthusiastic about his subject. Requires three 7-8 page papers. Has a lot of homework, but a lot of it gets worked into your papers (1-2 assignments a week; usually 1.5-3 pages in length). In-class assignments are kind of boring though. Kind of passive-aggressive when irritated, but, overall, he's a good person.
