Reviews of professor Joshua Held

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
If you are an athlete and taking Prof. Held's course, good luck. No matter what reasoning you have for missing class, he will penalize you the same. I had a mid semester grade report of a B. Held gave me an extension on the final paper because of a game, he then took off 30%.He lied to my face. He is rude, sarcastic and is not approachable.

I can easily say that this was the most frustrating class I have taken to this day in my college career. For a fiction gen-ed course, this seemed like a 300 level class with literature that fails to truly grab your attention and half the time, he will read the material in greek rather than english.

I was an English Ed major. He is very well read but doesnt understand why a class of English majors would want to talk about the context, history or meaning of a story. Once he spent an entire class period discussing whether or not a comma at the end of a line of poetry was in the original manuscript or not. It was infuriating.
