Professor Jay is one of the greatest professors out there. He is truly passionate on his crafts and loves telling stories. This class is extremely easy and one of the most valuable classes that I've taken. It is mainly just class discussion on what we read, and we get into deep conversations. I only had like 3 papers in the semester, and even then, it wasn't crazy

This was a great class; it might've been Parini's last time teaching, but the class was better than advertised. He would start each class with a long and interesting story from his life. We got to hear about his interactions with famous authors, filmmakers, and poets throughout his life. He would spend the rest of the class reading his favorite poems, accompanied by a backstory on the poet, including some insight into characters or events the poets might be referring to in their poems. Our only homework was to read a few assigned poems, and then he would open the floor to open discussion.

Parini was such a good guy. He loved poetry and loved teaching that class. Everyday he would give us a insane funny story about his incredible life. He loved to make people laugh and he did every class. He was super knowledgable about poetry and the poets we read and seemed to always have an anecdote. He cherished his time in the classroom and the observations of his students
