    CLASS20A . Gallucci R 2 Months Ago

    SO FIRE Gallucci was literally the GOAT. He's retiring at the end of this school year, but for anyone looking to take one of his courses in spring quarter, totally do it! I had him for Ancient Greeks online and it was super chill, it's definitely doable to really well on the midterm, final, and both essays for SURE

    CLASS20A . Gallucci R 3 Months Ago

    You can tell he is very interested in what he teaches. Class consists of two SHORT essays (about a page), a midterm, and a final (which were both open note).

    CLASS20A . Gallucci R 4 Months Ago

    Professor Gallucci was a great professor. As someone who enjoys learning about greek mythology his lectures were very interesting. His grading criteria is very easy. It's unfortunate that he is retiring this year, so if you have a chance to take this class definitely do it. It's an easy A. (He records all lectures and exams are open note) :)

    CLASS20A . Gallucci R 7 Months Ago

    Great lecturer who makes the material enjoyable. Gallucci's class is not too difficult - open-note exams and essays are straightforward if you do the readings. Unstuckstudy AI was a helpful tool for prep alongside the textbook.

    CLASS20A . Gallucci R 1 Year, 4 Months Ago

    grade was just two 400-word essays, a midterm and final which were all open note/book. lots of reading if you actually read the texts he assigns. essays are basically 100% if you just do them. his classes fill up super-quick, understandably why.

    Easy GE. The lectures were boring you don't need to go to do well. There were two short essays, a midterm (online), and a final (online). Great class overall.
