Hoberg is a very intelligent man but his courses are very dull!You dont even understand what he is saying half the time.You can attend the week of finals and he will not realize you missed half the semester.Better read the material on your own.He is friendly of rude sometimes.simple grade...he is a great man,knows what he is doing but can't teach at all.

Some people complain because Hoberg's courses are too simple. I agree that they're very simple, but that doesn't mean you won't learn a TON. He's got a huge head, and undoubtedly it's filled with a lifetime's worth of knowledge, and if you just stand next to him, you'll catch some of it. He's a intelligent man, and shares his knowledge liberally.

In response to the April 29th perspective,he approaches learning uniquely,like in private schools, evoking higher order thinking skills and not rote memory. I learned more and retained more from his courses than all the other English courses here combined. Most importantly, I became interested in reading literature on my own time!

friendlyst, funniest, and def most humble PERSON that Ive ever met. Ive taken poetry, Victorian Lit (most recent this semester), ENG beg to 1865, and myth bkgrds with him. JUST outstanding! Only survey courses require extensive work. The others are just a pure pleasure (and breeze)

A lot of students think prof Hoberg is great, which is fine--to each his/her own. I took Dr. Hoberg for 2 upper div courses: Victorian lit and folklore and the impartialy tale. He's too simple. I really did not learn much. I once told a friend that more than a few courses w/ Hoberg undermines the integrity of your degree.
