Elizabeth Sutherland
The single-semester option for meeting the first writing requirement-- intended to be taken during the first year of study-- this course approaches writing as a way of generating, representing, and reflecting on critical inquiry. Graded A, B, C, or NC. Students whose last names end in A-K must take ENWR 1510 in the fall; those with last names ending in L-Z take it in the spring.
"Difficulty 3.4, Hotness 5. If you want to take ENWR 1510, and Elizabeth Fox is teaching it this semester, don’t hesitate and take it. Eliza 真的是目前为止我在UVA遇到过最好的老师。一开始是因为这节课的主题Ghost story而选的,但是上完之后很想再上Eliza教的其他的课 (and I’m not a fan of literature or English writing)。 她上课的时候特别有活力,给的reading也很有趣,一周20-40页,跟很多ENWR的老师比起来算是非常良心了,上课讲writing要点的时候特别有条理,而且下课找office hour的时候会愿意帮你简化你的claim,或者理顺reasoning。虽然first year writing requirement可以用SAT抵掉,但是通过这一个学期的ENWR课,感觉在build a claim and proof it方面受益匪浅,真的是在大学四年以及之后的日子里都有用的东西。"
with Elizabeth Fox:这节课的话题是ghost stories。读的东西挺有趣的,基本都是鬼故事或鬼故事分析。教授非常热情和蔼可亲,喜欢鼓励同学,只要去office hour就会很耐心的帮你,所以essay写不好一定要去找她!打分的话我个人觉得不严格,我是每篇essay都去找她问问题,成绩大概在A-和A之间浮动。
