The second best butt in the department!

Any professor who lets me write a paper on the movie "Dazed and Confused" gets a good vote from me. If you know how to write a decent paper you'll have no problem in his class.

Prof. Wilson is a very demanding teacher. Some of his in class comments might seem rude, however, he seems to be a nice guy. He is very good at making time for individual help and if you decide to talk to him individually about a papper he is extremely helpful.

He's arrogant and pompous but most of the time he's right about papers. If you take this course it WILL demand work not the average BS that is acceptable with most other teachers. Advice if you like a challenge go for it if not switch teachers.

Most people don't like Chris, but this is only because they are still used to high school half-ass work. He is gonna make fun of you and he is gonna be harsh, but this is his motivational tool. He knows you aren't gonna learn if he babies you. The class isn't easy, but hard work gets decent grade

He does give everyone C's on their papers and no matter what there is always something that he wants you to fix.You cannot get an A!He made me feel like an idiot and yeah he makes fun of everyone, I did not like going to that class!

He was super specific on what he wanted in each paper. Which actually made it easier to write. Just fill in the blanks of what he wanted. He is extremely helpful on papers and wants all his students to do well. I got an A. Go into this class expecting to learn how to write.

Exceptional teacher, but a challenging class. Take this class if you want to learn how to write well. His sarcasm and wit make for a very fun class room experience. Cheers to Chris

Chris is/was an ****. His class is hilarious, I loved his sarcasm and wit. He wants you to do well in class, just ask for help. He won't bite off your head, even though he seems like he will. If you work hard it shows if not he'll make fun of you.

I had Chris for freshman English in Fall '99 and he was the one who taught me how to write a paper! The knowledge I got in that class helped me every single semester of my 7 years at MU. He was the best teacher I ever had. If your grade on a paper is poor, speak with him at office hours and he will help you earn that A. He wants you to succeed.

He made the class interesting. Was sarcastic and merciless, but fair. If you did the work, he stayed away from you, but if you didn't, watch out!

Great Teacher, Very nice Guy. Very understanding and interacts with the students

doesn't return papers very fast and gives 3 essays but no tests or quizes. I had basically no clue what my grade was until it was on myzou.

He definately taught us how to write but the class is extremely difficult. Would not take another english teacher, just expect a drop in your GPA after the class. Great learning experience though.

He seemed to know what he spoke about, but I took World Lit, so there was little writing. He is a smarta** but it actually gets my attention. He doesn't use the Internet for anything, but explains everything pretty well in class. He is verbatim from the text book, so do the reading assignments. He makes you actually work and you begin to appreciate the value of an actual A. If you start the class slacking, just drop-you will probably not pass. Be on your toes! Good class.

This guy is definitely not for overly sensitive ppl, his humor is mean but awesome. Easy class if you do the reading and show up, he likes pop quizzes. If you embrace his humor, you'll love it. Though he even says himself that he's rough on ENG 1000 students.

tough personality, funny, but hard to get along with. hav a walking discussion with him to your next class and youre on his good side. be a good student and youll be ok.

Professor Wilson has been my absolute favorite teacher since I've been at Mizzou. His class is interesting and he is hilarious. He genuinely cares about his students if they put in the effort, and wants you to get a good grade. You have to put in a good amount of work to get the A, though. Beware.

Difficult class but hands down I have learned the most from Chris. He is a great guy that will help you if you ask for it. Definitely worth taking.

You will learn a lot, but your grade won't show it. Sorry... Nice enough guy if you try to get to know him.

Professor Wilson was the best professor I had at Mizzou. I was in his freshman English class and he essentially taught me everything I know about writing. His class is hard, but SO worth it. Not to mention, he will write a hell of a rec letter later in life. He is a great guy, take ADVANTAGE of his office hours, he WANTS to help you.

Wilson's a beast, he's a tough grader but that's because kids come to expect easy A's on papers. He's a funny guy and is down to talking sports with you after class. Definitely Recommended.

Yes, Professor Wilson is sarcastic, arrogant, and a tough grader. However, it is not impossible to do well in his class, as long as you put the work in. I attended every class and paid attention and participated. That's what he expects of you and it is rewarding at the end. He will notice your hard work. Not a bad class IF you put in the effort.

He is a great teacher. Very sarcastic and makes the classroom a fun place to be in. He is a tough grader and makes you work for a good grade. Doesn't just let you get by easy like most English teachers do. He is challenging but taught me so much. Highly recommend

I really enjoyed English Lit with Professor Wilson. He is very intimidating at first, but once he gets used to the class and you get used to him, he is very entertaining. You have to go to class, and you have to do the readings because he gives lots of pop quizzes. And participation is big! But don't be afraid to speak up, he likes it! Good luck!

Professor Wilson is a funny, sarcastic guy. I actually didn't like him at first in the beginning of the semester, but he grew on me and he tries to make the class fun by sharing stories and being a jokester. As far as the class, I ended up with a low B. He is VERY SPECIFIC to what he wants on essays, which I guess makes it easier to do well.

Yeah he can be sarcastic and a bit condescending, but he's honestly one of my favorite professors. Get him alone and talking about something other than class and he's absolutely wonderful! He's passionate about you really leaning something, so he does grade hard. He basically gives you what you need to know for tests, and if you read you'll do fine

In class he can be very in your face and rude, however; he is hilarious and really gets you interested in the class. You can miss up to four classes but highly not recommended you will miss a pop quizzes that are essential to passing. The entire class is 500 points. Going into office hours will surely help!

Fantastic teacher. At first he came off as quite condescending/over the top, but he grows on you throughout the semester. He makes the class enjoyable and is very clear about what you need to do in order to do well. Would highly recommend taking a class with him.

I honestly never though I would enjoy a literature class until I took this one. He's humor is sometimes random but the sarcasm honestly it made the class so enjoyable. His lectures are actually interesting and he's a great guy He's a tough grader and expects a lot on tests and essays so take some really good notes.

Do your best, turn in assignments on time, and you shouldn't get less than a B. He just wants to know you are trying.

Very sarcastic and can come off as rude but all around a good teacher and hilarious guy. If you don't read you're not going to do well but as long as you do and you pay attention in class, he's very clear on what you need to do to do well.

Prof Wilson has hands down taught me better than any other English teacher. Sure, he is a hard grader. But if you show him that you want to do well, by showing up to class, actually participating, and going to office hours, you can get an A. He wants to know that you're trying, and you will definitely become a better writer after this class.

You definitely have to do the reading to pass, but it's okay because the reading is interesting. He's very sarcastic and funny! I learned a lot from this class. He's very specific in his grading but if you pay attention in lecture you can easily pass. Your grade is based on three quizzes, one paper, and class participation. 10/10 would recommend!

Wilson is a super hard grader, but usually if he's "mean" in class it's for good reason. A lot of students in English 1000 don't take it seriously. I wasn't a fan of his teaching in 1000, but he was absolutely AMAZING in English 1310. I was so intrigued by every word he said. Also, he's super nice when you talk to him during his office hours!

Not going to lie, Professor Wilsons eng1000 course is challenging for what it is. Some see him as sarcastic and sometimes rude, but it is never with malicious intent. YOU must READ directions! He docks a lot for errors. You need to show up to class or your grades will suffer. Not many assignments. Great guy to talk to during office hours!

lowkey loved him he makes class entertaining you can never be bored or he will call you out in front of everyone
