Really made me think about topics not normally approached in class and helped me understand such a complex author. Very organized and fair in grading &amp; reading exception, yet open to flexibility with paper topics &amp; class discussions. Thank you!<\/p>\n<p>\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663 Ken did an excel job teaching such a tough piece of text. I definitely liked how the text was broken up, how he provided worksheets, and group talks. Reading\u00a0<i>Paradise Lost\u00a0<\/i>wasn\u2019t painful at all!<\/p>\n<p>\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663 Professor Hiltner\u2019s class was very engaging. I enjoyed the class discussion and Prof. Hiltner\u2019s attentiveness to his students\u2019 input and thoughts. He is very approachable and accessible. Overall the class was very interesting and I learned so much about Milton and feel the class is a must for English majors.<\/p>\n<p>\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663 Professor Hiltner\u2019s structure of the course and utilization of classroom participation allows students to assimilate the course material effectively. Students are given the opportunity to voice their opinions and arrive at conclusions with the Professor\u2019s guidance.<\/p>\n<p>\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663 I thoroughly enjoyed taking this course with Professor Hiltner. The overall teaching style he utilized was extremely helpful for the content we covered. I would absolutely love to take another course with him.<\/p>\n<p>\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663 I came into this class with very little knowledge of or interest in Milton, and simply took the class because Ken hinter is a great professor. I left enjoying Milton greatly, and credit Mr. Hiltner\u2019s great lecturing.<\/p>\n<p>\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663 I really admired the structure of our class. It was a supportive atmosphere and we always engaged in thought provoking class discussions. Overall, really enjoyed the class!<\/p>\n<p>\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663 The class was very interesting and in combination with the teaching was extremely insightful. The discussions were engaging and I found myself more into the material than I thought I would be.<\/p>\n<p>\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663 Great, enjoyable class. See modern day examples all the time from pop culture.<\/p>\n<p>\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663\u2663 Interesting class and intuitive professor.
