Additional Comments |
Dr. Tom is definitely the most demanding writing professor in the English department, so it makes sense for him to teach this capstone course. He assigns a pretty daunting semester-long writing project, and you'll get to pick your poison: poetry, fiction, or creative non-fiction. While the material seems a little overwhelming, the class structure is actually very laid-back and even enjoyable. The majority of classes are set up as workshops, where you basically sit in a circle and discuss/critique work.
In my opinion, Dr. Tom is one of the toughest graders I had at Western, but that just made me more determined; it depends on your attitude, I guess. He's always available to meet with outside of class to discuss how to improve your writing, and I highly recommend taking advantage of that.
Overall, this is a course that you'll either sink or swim in; you have to do the work to pass. By the end of the semester, Dr. Tom will make you see what you're really capable of after 4 years at WKU.
