In spite of the comments on here Prof. Grow ended up being a lot better and easier than I anticipated. I found his class and assignments to be easy. I didn't get to complete the research paper that everyone was freaking out about and still managed to get a B as a final class grade. I actually found his dry humor quite entertaining. I would def

Horrible teacher! The assignments were 4 essays and 1 research paper, his grading is so unfair. Attendance is a must, thats probably the biggest paragraph he talks about in his syllabus. There is no extra credit whatsoever. I pulled him aside like 3 times but I still ended up dropping his class. What a waste, I feel so behind now. =/

Scrolling through the other opinions and I must say I agree with 95% of what is written. Yes, he is anal, he will waste one week discussing his pen and paper requirements, and don't even THINK about being late. All that said, it was an extremely easy class! Be on-time, don't miss more than 3 days, and you'll pass with flying colors. I got an A.

He gave my class a pop quiz one day about the previous night's reading assignment and only about 6 out of 30 people passed it. For a writing class not much writing goes on but just make sure you follow what he says to do on the writing assignments and you'll be fine
