David Austin's class is intriguing. He knows what he's talking about, but he doesn't seem to care much. He always comes in late, tired, monotone teaching voice, and always ends class early (yay! ) I took Poetry and Social Change with him, it was very interesting, I just wish he made the teaching interesting as well. Other than that, the evaluations are stupid easy, the project's fun, he ends class early, he's a walking meme, the list goes on. If you don't care about the teacher and want an easy & fun humanities course, this is IT.
