Dr. Garrison was a wonderful teacher. He was worth every penny of my student loan monies.

Dr. Garrison did more than force us to write definitions and memorize poetry styles. He helped us to understand what makes a poem, a story, a song so extraordinary. I will be forever in his debt. If I ever win an award, he’ll be the second person I thank after my own mother.
