Good
Prof. Sheppard really did an amazing job making Shakespeare relevant to our contemporary world. Thus, course material is very interesting and in-depth. I've learned quite a bit from her courses all from religious aspects, linguistics, theatricality, etc. I would highly recommend taking Shakespeare with her!!
