I have much respect for this professor I like that he's very organized and the syllabus he hands out the first day of the semester has everything about the class and answers all your questions you have. I have 2 more months for the semester to end but I found his class pretty easy and not hard to manage just don't forget the due dates

This was one of the best professors I have ever taken. He made class extremely enjoyable and although he is strict when it comes to deadlines, he cares about all his students and wants everyone to succeed. His class is very easy, I don't think I have every learned so much from a professor. I would definitely recommend this class! :)

I took Mr. Calabrese for both ENC 1101 and 1102, he was by far one of the best teachers I have ever taken. He is super strict on the deadlines, but gives ample amounts of time to finish each assignment. He was very kind and lighthearted and tried to make his class as interesting as possible. If you try you will pass

Professor Calabrese is super organized and makes the course easy to manage. The syllabus has all the details, and his instructions are clear. I found unstuck AI and ChatGPT really helpful for preparing. Overall, a great class!

If you like to work at your own pace, take his classes. You can turn in your essays throughout the semester, and if you turn them in before the due date and you have errors, he allows you to fix them with infinite tries. Attendance is also a grade and mandatory. I had him for Comp 1 and just finished Comp 2 so I recommend it.

He's enthusiastic about literature, he gives actual feedback on discussion posts. He has one deadline for 4 essays+ and lets you know at the beginning of the course, so please please DO NOTTTT PROCRASINATE! He offers extra credit so take advantage!!!!!!!!!!! Overall, his class was fun and lemme just say: I've had enough Bob Dylan for a lifetime.

Best professor Ive ever had. Super funny and was creative with the assignments and didn't grade assignments harshly. If your taking comp 2 choose him he is awesome and you will pass as long as you go to class and do majority work.

Show up to class, turn in assignments early rather than later, and do the extra credit! Everything you need to know is in the syllabus! Overall, an easy class.

Professor Calabrese is great. His class was fairly easy and fun. Just make sure to do the extra credit and don't wait like I did to turn in essays, finish them early. If you do the extra credit and stay on top of assignments, you might not even need to take the final. Don't leave the reading journal for the last minute, you'll regret it.

If you need to take a comp class take Professor Calabrese. I love his class he makes composition easy and understandable. He finds creative ways to make us write where we actually enjoy it. His class is based on points and are end there's a total of 110 points which makes the final optional. He also gives good feedback and is ready to help.

The class is very straightforward and the professor is hilarious. The workload isn't hard and doesn't take much time. I enjoyed it enough to take him again next semester. If you can do the work that's given to you to do then you should be set.
