Reviews of professor Erick Burdock

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
definitely not my favorite class. He tries almost too hard to make this class interesting. He bases it around monsters which I don't really take interest in. His grading is terrible, he waits until the last week of the semester to finally grade assignments so you never know what your grade is. I wouldn't take this class again!

Does not get grades in in a timely manner, assigns unnecessary amount of homework, and takes points off for attendance

He is not good at grading at all. You will not know your grade in the class until the semester is over, and he is very forgetful about what students tell him. He also says he will have things graded a certain day and they will still not be done two weeks later. The class is easy, but his grading can be very harsh.

Mr. Burdock teaches material well and the workload is not too difficult. The problem is that the attendance policy was HARSH. Every missed class will bring your entire grade down slightly and classwork cannot be made up if a class is missed, so missing one class can potentially be a grade tanker.

I think he did the best he could with your basic freshman English class. Tried to make it more interesting with readings about monsters and letting you choose your topics for papers. Grading took a while but was always fair. As long as you show up and do the work you'll be fine.

This class was a huge source of stress for me.

Burdock was one of my favorite professors in my 7 years of college courses. He was always willing to work with us so long as we were willing to work with him.

His attendance policy is one sided.  He will lower your grade each time for a missed class but he himself has cancelled 4 classes this semester at the last moment!

Be prepared to be behind in this class. In just the 16 weeks I had of this class, it was cancelled 9 times, which may sound nice, but it makes it difficult to stay on track. It was frustrating knowing how much I'm paying for this class just for it to never happen. Class time is not utilized fully, meaning most of the work is done outside of class.

Eric is so fun in class. There are no tests, just group and solo projects that are all pretty much up to you on creativity. Don't miss class or you'll be behind and miss participation points. 100% would take any of his classes again and I'm not even a film/English major

Burdock is such a great film professor. His enthusiasm and knowledge of film made this my favorite class. In class discussions are low key and easy to participate in. Its the same homework every week so there's no surprises when it comes to assignments. It can take a bit to get papers back because he genuinely enjoys what his students have to say.
