Roger Russi
CMLT
Professor Russi is very passionate about fairy tales. The lectures can be boring, but he tries to lighten the mood. The stories are overall interesting. He is an easy grader for reader responses, but not for papers.
Professor Russi truly seems enthusiastic about this class and its material. The class in itself isn't difficult just sometimes a bore to get through. The readings can sometimes be interesting but other times I'm falling asleep. He is also super picky about papers and peoples writing. He's a harsh grader and will absolutely humble you with his feedback. He is super nice and welcoming in class, but the discussions can be quite slow and exhausting.

Prof. Russi clearly loves to talk about fairy tales and spent every class lecturing about the reading from the night before. The readings themselves were very entertaining, and I liked the comparative approach that the course takes. We got to write our own fairy tales which I really enjoyed.
