Awesome

Professor Whiskey was awesome. He's a little strange, but a lovely man. He wanted you to have the best experience, and his passion shines through. I also had great classmates and really a roundtable discussion. Most of the work is reflection on each class, but it will actually leads to personal growth. I will not exaggerate it but this is my favorite class ever. My sincere gratitude for this professor.
