Business Communication is such a useful class that walks you through the process of writing a CV/cover letter, being interviewed, managing a crisis, writing professional emails and more. I always looked forward to this class.

I took Burton for Biz Com as a 103 english course. I really enjoyed the class and suggest it to anyone that isn't interested in something like eroticism in poetry. The readings are lengthy but the class makes up for it by not haveing actual essays due but projects like writing a CV or cover letter. Super interesting class!!!

Do the readings thoroughly, there is almost always a quiz that is very precise.

He is an extremely nice teacher that cars a lot for his students and the class.. He knows what he is talking about. A side note: To get a good grade in this course you have to follow his instructions explicitly and be brief and concise in your writing. I do suggest taking him.

Amazing teacher. Burton is very clear with what he expects of you for the essays. There is a lot of in-class group work, but it only counts for participation and to further understand the course material.
