Teachers

Hey I just registered for classes a few days ago as freshmen, and my teachers are Chris Constas for Honors Class, Robin Lyndenberg for Poetry, Ian Halbert for Intermediate Latin, and Timothy Duket for a Humanities Research Lab. So does anyone know about these teachers or classes? Any advice, info, or opinions would be appreciated.

i love constas. he grades blind, meaning you put a code on the top of your papers so he does not know who writes them. he believes that this prevents him from grade inflation or deflation based on how much he likes you.

he can be harsh. be prepared to have you self esteem trampled on once during the year but you will learn a lot.

oh and it is all about sex

I had Halbert for Latin last semester. He's young and really chill. Calls on you to translate so either prepare the night before, be good at Latin, or be okay with looking like a jackass hehe.

Chris Constas for Honors Class
- An excellent professor. The roommate that had him has nothing but praise for him.

Robin Lyndenberg for Poetry,
- No clue.

Ian Halbert for Intermediate Latin
- Nice guy. Pretty easy.

Timothy Duket
- He is very knowledgeable, but he has a difficult time expressing complex idea. Since this is a lab class, I'm not too concern. If you are taking him for WestCult on the other hand, prepare for a lot of Odyssey and Dante.
