Yay for Dr. Lewis! She is an excellent English teacher.
I don't have a long list of life regrets, but being intimidated by Dr. Lewis is one of them. I wish 20 years ago I had had the guts to enroll in her Shakespeare classes. She is a brilliant teacher and a gifted writer, and while I had many wonderful professors at Davidson I still think about what I missed. Many congratulations on this award to Dr.Lewis!
