Urgent FWS question!

Colleges and Universities A-Z Cornell University

<p>Is there a website where students can rate and/or comment on their freshman writing seminar experiences? So that we are not only relying only on the short description the website provides? I'm looking for any information - professors, workload, material, classes themselves...</p>

<p>And if there isn't, do you have any comments on:
1.Philosophical Conversations: Parfit's Reasons and Persons
2.”The Things I Have Seen”: Literature and Human Rights
3.From Fairy Tales to the Uncanny: Exploring the Romantic Consciousness
4.The Mystery in the Story</p>

<p>

FWS are usually taught by grad students, and as far as I know, there isn’t any website where students rate classes that they took…</p>

3

<p>you mustve done none of your own research because those sound like the hardest FWS you could choose</p>

4

<p>and where are you getting that from? I was under the impression that the fairy tale course was not too difficult and I cannot seem to find a solid source for the others, so if you know of a location for me to be doing my research, please, let me know</p>

<p>fairy tales is pretty popular but pobrably not the easiest? i dont know. like many have said before not the same prof teaches every year. </p>

<p>take what fits :smiley: and stick with it…</p>

<p>its always said that english department fws are the hardest, but if youre really into it, those wont be bad</p>

7

<p>my friend claims a native american one he took was easy lol…</p>

<p>for those into competitions i think every FWS is allowed to submit someone’s work for a small scholarship/recognition? not sure if they still do that :)</p>

<p>^ Yeah, each FWS instructor can select 2 (maybe 3?) students per class for each essay/portfolio competition. You get a monetary prize if you win, and I think you also get published somewhere.</p>
