He's a pretty cool professor, and funny. About 5 papers to write the whole semester.

Good Professor. Funny, interesting, knows what he is talking about and is willing to drop the midterm or paper if you negotiate with him! Not bad to look at either!

Very knowledgeable, skilled and respectable professor. He is a fair grader as long as he sees that you put effort into your work.

Well this professor is hard at times, he is very helpful and infomative with vast amounts of english literature

He's not easy, awesome to listen to -- his classes were my favorite. The dumb thing to do is to start babbling before you had a chance to think about what you want to say. Comments, like your papers, better have a strong point. Moreland rocks.

Moreland is probably the best Eng Prof i've ever had. You will learn so much from any of his classes. He is extremely knowledgeable on everything and knows when you are bsing.Hes always there for students who need help and hes a very fair grader.

It was fun to be in his class. My writing has improved and he appreciates a show of improvement. Even if you dont have his class, he is still willing to help you with your english papers. His papers are fair. Lets just say i had him twice. Now you choose!

Wow, he might seem sort of hard at first, but he's just REALLY smart (Colombia Graduate) and he's helpful with your papers. He knows his stuff and he's interesting-I liked his course a lot!

He's such a good professor and he teaches from the heart.

Moreland was wonderful. Very funny and extremely knowledgeable. My favorite Professor by far.

Hes a good prof.His class doesnt make my head hurt.He wants u to participate & theres not much written work.U should keep up with the reading.Hes very understandable & he makes it enjoyable.U'll like his class

He's really funny and smart. Not that hard but there is a lot of reading.

Cool cat. He's often deemed disorganized and criticized for his teaching ability because students too often expect answers to be handed to them. Moreland encourages you to think for yourself and consider all possibilities of whatever you're reading, not just regurgitate the text.

Tough guy on the outside ,soft on the inside --really wants to help his students

Moreland seems intimidating, but he's not really that bad. His lectures are interesting and he gets the class involved. He is a fair grader and lets you re-write papers. He gives a lot of reading, but I have missed a lot of it. You usually only need to read the material for his papers.

Professor Moreland is amazing. He is an absolutely wonderful teacher who appreciates students' hard work. He wants you to dig deep into the readings that he gives you. He actually sits there and takes his time explaining issues to you. He has big heart for his students. Moreland wants you to think.

he is brilliant, one of the smartest profs in the entire college!!! class is very entertaining, and you learn a lot. i only wosh he taught more classes for non majors!! highly recommeneded!!

He is a great teacher! You have to work hard on your papers and they aren't easy, but he is very helpful and answers all your questions.

I had him twice and he never lets me down. This professor is the best I've seen at QC thus far. He really knows his stuff and he's really interesting to listen to- a funny guy! At the least you will enjoy lectures. Papers can be tough, but he's willing to help you out. Definitely tAke him!

Still in his class, but love him! Don't fail to take his class b/c of poor comments on this site. Great personality, fun, fair grader, very helpful, challenging- material is great!

He is great. He says it like it is. If you don't have a thick skin, he isnt for you. The material he covers is really interesting and he provides a lot of feedback on your papers. He is real funny and makes the 3 hour lecture fly by. I would definitely take him again.

he is a very funny guy, who if you have any questions would be gladly to help you, and the papers that we have to hand in, are very easy, he explains with clarity what he reads and you'll never get bored with the class.

Such a good class!! I would take him again.

he has a gr8 sense of humor and is a really nice guy. lets you rewrite for a better grade even though you prob wont need it. explains very clearly wat each paper is about. i def want to take him again! o ya and he has a kick ass afro!!

HES the best No doubt .... wish all my profesors were like him

One of the greatest professors in QC. If you ever have an opportunity to take his class do so. I agree with previous commentary hes wonderful but if you are not willing to be responsible and open minded then youll totally miss the experience.

Entertaining and easy. Enjoyed his discussions of Frost and Dickinson. I hardly read and skipped a bunch of classes, yet somehow managed to get an A-. Course work consists of a few short papers and a final.

Great sense of humor and easy going. Just make sue you do the work!

great prof. great sense of humor. totally hot.

Madd cool dude. Not a stickler. Easy-going. Make sure u do the work. Good debater. (lol) I had a lot of fun in his class. He's a funny guy.

Awsome Guy!! Some of the best class discussions I have every had in a college classroom. Keep up with the readings, if not for anything else, but to be able to engage in the class discussion.

Professor Moreland is an extremely nice guy. Class discussions are enjoyable. He chooses interesting authors and the reading is fun. He is also very helpful. NO MIDTERM. 2/3 papers and a final exam. He tells you exactly what would be on the finals. He just wants to know that you have some understanding of the reading.

One of the best ENG professors I have taken at QC. His lectures are interesting and he basically wants to know that you have some interest in the class. Even if you are a shy person, you would feel comfortable to participate in class discussions. He tells you exactly what he wants on the paper and what to expect on the final exam.

he wasnt the greatest, but hes good...i actualy got a B in the end when i didnt do so great on the papers...got like a C, C- then a B-....and i didnt participate that much...but hes not as bad as everyone says hes actually a cool guy

i've had him 2 times and i just love him! all you have to do is the reading and 3 papers and a final. he's very intelligent and will give you so much insight. i feel like ive learned more from him than all of my profs here combined! you will def learn, and it will def be interesting. he may seem intimidating but such a cool prof :]

Im taking him right now, he seems pretty easy, 5 papers, not necessarily long for all 5. skips class once in a while... funky hair and class is not boring. he's good

No Comments

A cool teacher, he can be somewhat sarcastic but he knows his stuff. I took him twice.

He is amazing, taking him again in the future. He is funny, charming and extremely intelligent, everything that comes out of his mouth is worth listening to, it pays off at the end of it all. His class one of the best experiences i've had at QC yet!

Amazing, brilliant Professor -do yourself a favor and take at least one class with him. Caring and super cool, he gives a unique important perspective on the reading material, which can be extremely complex. Easy to talk to and goes out of his way to help you understand the ideas presented in the text. always available to speak with students.

One of the naturally smartest people that i've ever had the pleasure of conversing with. An excellent professor. I highly recomend taking his classes.

The man is a god.

finally, a real professor. probably the nicest and most caring professor who has a genuine interest in his students. he's not a cake walk but his class kicks all the other professors'

Professor is clear, detailed and humorous! During the semester we read approximately 6 novels and did three papers, very fair coursework! Highly recommeneded!

I want to have his babies!

I love him. By far, he is the best professor in Queens College, period. Extremely intelligent, fair coursework. Read about 6 books, three papers. He's amazing. I definitely intend to take him again, and you should too!!

Best professor on Queens Campus. He is totally down to earth and speaks in a language that everyone will understand (not like other professors who talk like students are inferior). His coursework is rather easier than expected. Definitely recommend and will enjoy having him as my professor again!

Professor Moreland is one of the best professors at QC. He is funny, down to earth and extremely smart and witty. I would defenitely take him again. Coursework is fair and he makes the subject very interesting.

Gets class to participate under threat of extra exams. Was absent twice with no warning, no email, nothing-- a drag considering I traveled to QC from another borough and it was freezing outside. However, the class discussion is very interesting, he likes engaging w/you if you really stand behind what you're saying.

The funniest and most sarcastic prof I've met so far. The guy knows his stuff and then some. Gives anecdotal stories that help with understanding key points of the text. Great class, great prof

Tough but fair. Encourages class discussion and participation. Does tend to look for particular interpretations but if you can defend your POV, you are fine. Expects reading/writing on college level, shock, awe! If you cannot use grammar, you will fail. Allows rewrites of papers (of which there are ~3) and does make-up. Great guy. Taking him again!

Great guy, taking him again! Nice, friendly, lets you rewrite papers, gives second chances. He has a great heart, awesome professor!

awesome professor. doesnt always attend class. very humorous. easy grader. just do the reading and youll get good grade

he's very complex. he demands you have an opinion and forces you to really think about what you're reading on a deeper level which is good. but he's a harsh grader when it comes to essays and like to give random test when he feels like the class is slacking

I'd what these other people are complaining abut. This man is a great professor and person. He shouldn't be demeaned for challenging you. I learned a lot in his class and got a few jokes on the way.

great guy very funny took his class last semester. you just have to do the readings and participate a good amount. make him learn your name and youll do great as long as you can write a decent paper.

Professor Moreland is an extremely educated man but he uses his education in many fields to create a funny and energetic environment within the classroom. There was a dull moment, always laughing and learning in his class. I would definitely take him again if I have the chance.

Hes not a bad professor. Your papers have to make sense to him. He breaks down the readings and always ask you questions to make sure you understand. Hes a little intimidating at first but overall its not a bad class.

Professor Moreland is a great professor! I will admit he may come off as a bit brash when you first meet him but he has an opinion and is very insightful. He makes you really think about the readings and challenges you to form a clear, strong point of view. He has a laid back attitude when it comes to teaching. Just do the work!

Great professor. Very freindly, knows a lot. The books are intersting. No quizzes, but if he feels you don't read he will give quizzes. A lot he goes off topic. Really enjoyed my timed in this class

I love him!

Quite intimidating, but a good professor nonetheless. Tough grader, but don't be afraid to ask for help or clarification. No tests unless he feels like you aren't reading. Humor can be tough to digest, but he's not REALLY mean. A lot of work, but worth it. Would take again!

Prof. Moreland is that man. He made class enjoyable and funny. Just be prepared to read.

I've taken Moreland for a couple of classes and enjoyed all of them. The readings he assigns are amazing. He is a tough grader, but if you show up on time, participate, and put effort into your papers you'll do fine. He's funny and relaxed, but don't mistake that for an easy A. It's clear he loves literature, I deff recommend him for Eng. majors.

Super down to earth and curses you will def pass BUT if your like me and like to get As he will not give it to you no matter what. Only Bs. A lot of reading but overall cool and fun doesn't feel like class

Wayne Moreland is a great professor. He cares about his students and he is a funny guy. I had a good time writing narratives and poems in his class. The group workshops were fun as well. You must take creative writing with him -- you won't regret it! :D

Insightful and hilarious guy. There's plenty of reading but what else do you expect from an english class? No tests unless he feels like you don't read so either participate or prepare to fail the quiz. His papers aren't easy, but he isn't unreasonable. If you go to his office he will help. Honest and down to earth. Looks like Morgan Freeman too.

Took him before and hes always a pleasure to listen to in class about the books we read in class. Very nice guy, would take again

If you do not like to participate, do not take him. He's reasonable and honestly, hilarious. His classes do not feel like classes, rather jokes and discussing the books. His readings are fun- but his papers are tough. He's a reasonable grader. Participate, show that you care about the class, and you'll have a chill class. He's a chill guy.

Be ready to read and to participate. Other than participation there are only 3 papers to make up your grade. That being said, if that's okay with you his class is great. He loves to joke around, but you can tell he also really cares about the material and you'll learn a lot. He can be a little intimidating, but he's really a good guy. Take him!

Moreland is a great professor. I took him twice, purposefully, and enjoyed the class and content both times. He'll also help you meet people in the department, he literally took me around the English dept. and introduced me to people. He'll also help you with your writing outside of his class. Great guy and definitely worth taking at least once.

In a world where most professors stray away from the meat of what studying literature is, Professor Moreland presents the opportunity to really just confront the materials in and of themselves with no extraneous agendas to be accounted for. He is a relaxed guy, hilarious and certainly creates the proper environment for enjoying works of art.

Really funny to take, very fun to listen to. All you have to do is read, talk in class, and then do the papers. Very worth your time.

Honestly Professor Moreland is the best professor I've had at Queens College so far

Professor Moreland is a really good English professor. We often had really interesting class discussions about the pieces we've read. All you need to do is participate and read what he assigns and you'll be fine !

really liked him. lots of reading but his discussions are so interesting. very funny, genuinely cares. good guy, very up-front, it can seem like a lot at first. he always assigns good readings. take him if you can

He is a great professor, took him for intro to poetry. He is strict with deadlines, so make sure to give in your work at the right time. His humor makes class enjoyable.

Professor Moreland is pretty chill and hilarious one thing is that you'll never be bored in his class. he's pretty chill doesn't assign a lot of work but he does assign essays which there's a page limit but its pretty easy. you don't need to buy the text you can find all poem online on google. overall pretty chill would take him again

He is super fun! super fair! and has a lot of experience in teaching. He will meet you where you're at, and has incredible stories, TAKE HIM BEFORE HE RETIRES!

He makes class fun. You have to actually read the books and have something in mind for the class. He evaluates if you actually read the books and your critical thinking. The questions asked in class are difficult but that is because the subject matter is complex. He is retiring at the end of this semester. He was a great professor.
