simply the best professor on earth.
This class made me switch to a history major! Loved how clear the grading was. There is a weekly paper but it was short and didn't take much time and lowest two grades dropped. Tests were easy as study guide was given. The real reason I loved this class though was the way Bouley lectured, as he made lectures both funny and engaging.
One of the final prompts was to compare the roles of men and women in the Renaissance. However, few of the readings addressed women in the Renaissance beyond their roles within the family. This made the paper a challenge to write. The history department needs a serious rework, it is full of outdated and misogynistic ideas.
I took INT187AI and loved it. Easy 2 units class, and is actually interesting. You have to show up minimum of 6/10 time to pass (only pass/no pass class). It was taught by 2 professors and they were both super nice and chill. 100% would take it again. Little homework too.
I like him he is funny. And the class is not hard and very clear and interesting. 5 stars! I am a history major now.
Professor Bouley lectures are entertaining, and very well detailed! He is always making sure that everyone in lecture understand and asking questions. I did not skip or miss any lectures which I can defintely say is the reason for my A in the class. If you're thinking about taking the class, do it!
