The class was unbearbly dumbed-down to appeal to the lowest echelon of the Suffolk student body. He decided, for some reason far beyond me, to NOT give any essay assignments for an EG81 (Modern Literature) class, under the premise that the "Modern" period is far to disjointed to write about.

Professor Linker is one of the best teachers at SCCC. I took for Eng 102 and 215, he makes boring material very interesting. He understands not everything is a lot of fun but he still is very good at retaining everyone's attention. He gives quizzes and papers weekly but they are anything to worry about, he enjoys teaching which makes class go fast

Truly the best professor that I've ever had- in any subject. I voluntarily took him for three classes, so his effectiveness as a professor is pretty self explanatory. I'm so grateful to him for believing in me, encouraging me to "find my voice" and for constantly being there for moral support. I honestly miss being in his class. Love Linker!!!!

If you're contemplating taking this class, do it. He's very funny, very helpful and it is obvious he cares about his students. Mini essay & a mini quiz every week, but it is not as bad as it sounds at all. It actually helps to have more grades than only a few. There's a lot of books but to be honest I didn't read them towards the end and I did fine
