    HIST102 . 5 Months Ago

    Professor English is awesome! This class was fun and stress-free. He is not a tough grader on the essays (which make up all of the grade along with participation). He is the professor that answered my questions the fastest this quarter, and he really cares about what he is teaching. Class taken: HIST138FM (was not an option here)

    LATIN103 . 14 Years Ago

    Had expectations more appropriate to a once a week seminar than a twice a week one. Overall decent, but serious pros and cons.
