This is the toughest class i've taken so far. Class consists mostly of joking around about his own life and occasionally you'll analyze a reading hes having you do. The readings are very difficult to understand and his papers are even harder. All this being said, out of any subject, this one's improved me the most.

He spends WAY more time discussing his personal life than he does teaching the confusing material. I went to his office and he all he did was belittle my ideas. Afterward, I still had no idea how to approach my project. He regularly blames us for his mistakes. I've been at WCU for 3 years and have never experienced such awkwardly painful discourse.

Don't take this class if you don't have to. He's a really nice guy and makes you laugh but it's extremely challenging. I spent two weeks working on a paper and felt so good about it, and considering he said you fail if it's turned in late or you do not reach the minimum words, I thought I'd at least pass but got a 50!! Hardest class ever:(

Personality wise, he's a funny guy and he's got interesting stories to tell about his life and his girlfriends. But when it comes down to the writing assignments, the prompts are SO difficult to understand. and he's so picky with what he wants.

He can be difficult with his prompts, but they are grad school essays and definitely help in the long run. If you ask for help, he's more than willing to give it.

He is a very nice professor but he just has too many stories about his personal life that conflict with the class. It feels as though you can never understand anything you read because the essays are very hard to understand. When you go to him for help he doesnt really help at all, just tells you its right/wrong (doesn't give any direction).

His assignments are difficult but he requires meetings before the papers are due in which he helps ALOT to clear things up. Class is honestly a waste of time... he has ADHD to the extreme and you only learn for about 15 mins of the hour and 15 mins. He's entertaining but class is pointless.

This professor isn't for everyone. His sense of humor definitely takes some getting used to.. and he does seem to get off topic a lot. The papers were never 100% clear, however if you try to follow the guidelines and apply what you've learned from the readings, you should be okay. I wouldn't take him again.

He goes off topic almost the whole time. He is very very relaxed and jokes around a lot; however, he will help you to write a good paper. Schedule meetings with him and come prepared to them. Class is helpful but the meetings will get you an A in the class. I didn't learn much about writing, but I enjoyed having him as a Gen Ed professor.

No textbook. No mandatory attendance. He assigns a few essays, but guides you through them very well and meets with every student to give personal attention to their writing. He wants everyone to get an A, so if you put in the effort you will succeed. Classes are fun because he goes off topic and likes to joke around. My writing improved so much.

The class is real easy, no textbook, if you can string together a sentence you already have an A. That said, Cream is an adult hipster. He switches between talking to you like you're a dull kindergartener and trying to relate to you by swearing like Jay from Clerks. It's sometimes funny, but mostly sad. Take the class, sleep through it, move on.

Randall was awesome. As a first semester freshman, he was definitely my favorite teacher. I barely took notes, but going to class was crucial to being able to write a quality paper for his class. Whenever I met with him to discuss my paper, he didn't sugar coat it, but that also made it a lot easier to revise my writing so I could get an A.

This class is so easy! There are 3 essays but you can do a prezi instead. Once he assigns an essay you do not have class until it's due. He is also very funny. He can get a little off topic sometimes but who cares! The worksheet that explains his essays are unclear, but he explains them better in person. Take him if you can.

One of the first things Cream tells his students is that he wants to give them an A. For WRT200 spring2016 While we work on the essay class was canceled( 2-4 weeks). If you get a better grade on the 2nd essay than the first the grade is replaced by the second and if you get a b+ or better on the 2nd essay you didnt have to do the 3rd easy A. TAKE!

Dr. Cream is a very nice professor. He will never attempt to guide the discussion, he just rolls with it, on topic or not. You will be expected to write a paper even if you only discussed three lines of the reading in class. Class time didn't do much for me. A nice guy all around with plenty of knowledge to share if you seek it yourself. Do endorse

My only complaint is that, at least for individual meetings, he can get quite backed up. It can be inconvenient if you scheduled your meeting right before a class or event.

Never have I had a professor that wasted as much time as Randall Cream. His instructions for his assignments were so vague and asking questions didn't even help much. Then in conferences, he would act confused about why you didn't write what he wanted before he would get sidetracked talking about something random and waste more of your time.

Randall Cream was funny, but going to class felt like a waste because he goes on lots of tangents. His instructions for projects were also very vague and unclear, and he always acted very condescending/blamed it on me for not understanding something when I asked questions. Take him for gen-eds, but try and avoid him for major required courses.

Prof.Cream is like Yoda, you do not see the extent of his knowledge until you look past his tangents. With patience, he has a lot to offer his students. His one-on-one meetings provide an amazing amount of insight in terms of writing analysis. He clearly loves his job, and is a fun professor overall. Just be prepared for numerous F-bombs in class.

I had him for ENG 201 and our class itself was disengaged and oftentimes combative, but he did such a great job remaining patient and responsive. He is a hilarious professor and despite his tangents, he truly goes out of his way to make sure our projects were progressing well. His conferences are genuinely fun, and he gives valuable feedback.

Dr.Cream was a fantastic teacher. He was extremely "real" and never asked us to write too much. His class is an easy A. His directions are super clear and if you jave any questions hes very easy to get in contact with. He also made me a better writer. r. Hes got a sick hat aswell, I always see him @ greek truck.

Professor cream is overall a great professor. He offers many extra credit opportunities and I suggest you going to the lectures to get your attendance taken. Trust me it will help you in the end. Absolutely love the lectures and I would take him again if I had to. 10/10 I definitely would recommend

This man simply doesn't teach. He assigns projects and papers and makes you conference with him to improve them, but his comments are very difficult to understand. Avoid the headache if you can. If you can't you'll probably still do fine.

His instruction can be a little unclear but is definitely worth going to class even though it's kind of a waste of time. He grades so much easier than he makes it sound. I really liked him! The one on one conferences were nerve racking at first but honestly he is such a great help and really only does it to help you succeed.

I've taken his classes 3 times! Really like him. A few group projects before the final proj, aren't too hard but kinda felt like doing the same thing over and over. Make sure you pick a good group at the start. Doesnt really teach and the conferences get annoying but he tells you exactly how to get an A if you take them seriously. You'll be fine!!

This class was so confusing. He barely gives any context on prompts and they were extremely difficult. He cancels some classes a lot which was nice but overall this was the hardest class I had taken. I thought I was a good writer until this class.

He is very accessible but the workload is a lot. There are several group projects and he starts off with the hardest one which is literally defining an area of theory that you did not learn in class but read from a textbook. Unfortunately, this is the better option than previous classes, but maybe consider taking another core class if possible.

The course material itself was very difficult and the instructions were never really clear. The meetings with him were somewhat productive, try to do it on Zoom because in person he gets distracted easily. There are a lot of tangents, and the class relies on you to understand your theory. He's very disrespectful of views that do not align with his.

Dr Cream is a great guy and I thought his class was pretty manageable. We had weekly assignments that were pretty simple and only 2 big essay projects for the whole semester. Class wasn't mandatory and for the most part class is super straight forward. He's a very entertaining guy and gets distracted pretty easily but its not bad at all.

ProfCream can be unpredictable. One week your writing is great; the next, it all of a sudden needs work. Be nice, or expect indirect comments in front of the whole class. If you're a strong writer, don't stress his constant criticism; if not, take his advice and ask for help. He wants effort and success. Stay sharp and finish assignments on time

If you show up to every class, you are exempt from everything except the 2 projects. They are papers that ask you to interpret the stories and movies for the class. It can be confusing, but his conferences help. Books and movies were interesting. Lectures were pointless, but he let you out early and talk a lot about his personal life. Big swearer.

Dr. Cream is such a character. He's so kind, and he never puts too much pressure on his students. I feel like the advice he gave me on my papers was very straightforward and actually made me a better writer. He makes his expectations clear, and his class is enjoyable for writers and non-writers alike.

I had him for LIT100 not 165 but it wasn't an option. It was easy, obviously a 100-level class. Dude is great, super nice and quirky. He is very open to working with students and is relaxed when it comes to attendance (gives you a couple "passes"). I'd take him again for sure.

Had this class with him last semester, and he taught me twice—both times were great experiences. He's very communicative and transparent with his students. Very chill with attendance, offers opportunities for extra credit. Has a particular sense of humor, gets distracted easily, and yaps, but you get a lot out of the class regardless.

*HAD FOR LIT100 JUST WASN'T A CHOICE* Dr. Cream is funny and easy to talk to. There's only one homework assignment a week and you get to pick what you do to complete it. Attendance is part of your overall grade, but you can make up missed classes by scheduling meetings with him. Just note that he normally only holds class for 20/75 scheduled mins.

This class was super easy there's 2 big papers and 1 project. As well as, 3 little writing assignments that are a paragraph each. He often cancels class at least once a week but it's because you have to have a zoom or in person meeting with him to give feedback on your paper/project. Classes are boring but you get extra credit for going.
