Bill Wilson is one of the greatest proffesors that you could ever get to know. Take one of his classes if for no other reason than to meet him and go to his office hours. In this course, you will read amazing works (Flannery O'Connor's stories, Dante's Paradiso, Faulner's Sound and the Fury, etc.) and get the context necessary to read them as they were meant to be read.

Take Professor Wilson. And his class. This class has great reading. Sometimes concepts can get a bit mystifying, but go talk to Professor Wilson in office hours and you will be fine.

Mr. Wilson is absolutely brilliant. I read some true classics in this class from Augustine to Faulkner and had the pleasure of hearing Mr. Wilson lecture on them. Often, I got lost during lecture, but I didn't really mind. Three 8-10 pg papers and a fair amount of reading, but so worth it. The papers are also graded pretty easily. This class is a must take simply because Mr. Wilson teaches it.

You get to read really interesting things and your enjoyment of the books and stories is increased by professor Wilson's enthusiasm

Professor Wilson loves his students, but his lectures are often scattered and I would find myself lost. I would recommend this class to people who really enjoy English and analyzing literature because this class felt far more like an English class than a religious studies class to me. I think it would more appropriately fit in the English department. Projessor Wilson is very kind if you go to his office hours, and the day-to-day workload is not demanding at all. You simply have three 8-10 page papers throughout the semester and choose your topic--it can be anything1

Amazing class. Genius lectures. Fun and engaging at office hours... definately go them and enjoy his brilliant lectures

One of the best professors at UVa, hands down. Extremely knowledgeable in Christian literature and Western literature in general. Some of us call his class "Wilson's story hour".

This class was really interesting. For me, I had trouble following him in lecture as I'm not used to his way of speaking. But, once I asked and got to understand...wow, he's a genius is all I have to say. I didn't know how to write, so he helped a lot. Ended with a B+.
