Roger Russi

I really enjoyed class with professor Russi! Even though I dont really have much interest in literature, the way he went about describing the texts and his enthusiasm made discussion very interesting. We are able to get points back on papers through rewrites (which are just small edits), and it makes the whole class just feel very chill and low pressure. A nice addition to your schedule if you take hard classes and need a CW requirement!

It was very interesting and genuine fun class. He's a good advisor too. If you have trouble with Grammer triple check it since he does grade more harshly on it. We do get to see some cool clips in the class as well. I would recommend choosing a typical popular story to research if you don't want to spend a crazy amount of time in the library. As the less common tales resources are either in German, French, or on barrow system with other libraries in a non timely manner.

Professor Russi is very knowledgeable on the topic of Fairy Tales. However, his classes were not always interesting, and many students clearly didn't read but got away with it. There were a handful of students that were engaged everyday, and by the end of the year they answered nearly 100% of the Professor's questions.
