Review #1 / Course: ENGL 1001 / Instructor: GAGE R
First day of Gage's class I thought he was crazy, but once the semester went on I realized he really is a good guy. He is very intelligent and keeps you awake with his class discussions. You don't have to do too much in this class.

Gage is the WORST teacher i've ever had at LSU. He spends more time rambling than he does teaching. He is impossible to get intouch with because he does not even have the internet. DO NOT TAKE GAGE!!!!! fair warning

Dr. Gage may be very political and funny, but if you don't take yourself and himself too seriously, you'll enjoy him.

Dr. Gage is not a very understanding person. He is also extremely Liberal. If you are Greek and the least bit Conservative, do not take GAGE! Every discussion was about the Presidential election, and the fighting got so bad people walked out..

Review #7 / Course: ENGL 1002 / Instructor: GAGE R
His class is really easy, but if you are a Republican beware! He's very opinionated and will shove views onto you. Easy A if you can write on the level of a freshman in high school.

This is a level 2 course and he makes it more like a level 4- he makes it much harder than it should be- the term paper is a killer- he's a weirdo too-don't take him

Review #9 / Course: ENGL 2029 / Instructor: GAGE R
I do not recommend this Teacher! He obviously has "tenure", because he says whatever he wants in class regardless if it offends anyone. Worst case of adult ADD I have ever seen.

Dr. Gage is a brilliant English teacher, I enjoyed going to his class everyday. These other students do not know what they are talking about.

The negative comments about Gage were obviously made by students that were lazy, he was entertaining in an unusual way but he was fair and helpful if you made the effort. Great man!

Review #17 / Course: ENGL 2002 / Instructor: GAGE R
The man has definitely dropped his basket. He is very strange. He's very nit-picky and grades everything really hard and his classes are excrutiatingly long and boring. I dreaded it every day.

Don't make the mistake of taking Gage, either you're going to drop or regret it. He grades terribly and is as boring as hell and he makes you do a report that takes months, he's not worth it at all.

You have to read 12 books.; Can only miss 4 classes or he docks your grade; He reads his lectures from a piece of paper, but the books were good.
