This was one of my more interesting courses at HBU. Really enjoyed having Dr. Wilson as a professor as he is extremely passionate about what he teaches. This will be one of the courses that change your life and outlook on life.

Cons: look at comments below. there really aren't any pros though.
ATTITUDE: Dr Dwain Wilson's attitude toward students are that they are completely oblivious to the outside world, stupid, and immature. We are solely this way because apparently high school "messes" us up and makes us believe that receiving an A is a normal thing. GRADING: his grading is completely subjective, Only having about 50 multiple choice questions for the test that are obviously copied and pasted from an upper level class and the other half essay. This gives plenty of room for him to grade according to either if he favors the student or not, and if he feels like grading well or not. Same goes for his reaction papers that are due every tuesday. Completely subjective. Personally, I've written 8 pages that took me about 3 hours and I still receive a B. He expects that you supply a personal answer applied from a book answer but requires a strict book answer in class discussion. LECTURE: he doesn't. He puts people randomly into groups and group discussion is his lecture. yea. I don't get it either. EMAIL: So, due to his subjective grading techniques, I've emailed him politely and asked respectfully how I may receive an A: writing my life away doesn't help and neither does writing sufficiently. He replied as: "I don't have your paper in front of me. I don't have anyone's scores memorized. Feedback on written work needs to be done live........High school really messed most people up, making you believe an A was average". Personally I took that as rude and replied just as such. PROFESSIONALISM: in account of that email, he noted to the class that he may come off "snarky" and we need to just "push" him back. This, in my opinion is neither professional or helpful. All this does is make the student mad. Goodluck.
