Legend.

super easy class, but extremely boring and disorganized lectures. There are a lot of required readings but you do not need many of them for exams. Class is graded on 2 essays, a midterm, and final. The essays are 600 words and if you do it you get an A. Exams are on arbitrary questions but were online and open book.

This professor is the worst I've ever had at UCSB. His lectures are incredibly boring and hard to follow, his material is unorganized and poorly planned, and he does not engage or communicate with students. His class is incredibly easy, and without attending a single lecture or doing any readings I got an A?! This quality of education is ridiculous

TBH, Dr. Gallucci's lectures are not that exciting, so try your best to keep pace with his lectures and not to fall asleep! His reading is very important and tested in both exams. However, he gives fair exams and an extra credit assignment after the final. Will take him again if he teaches other classics courses.

Gallucci is not perfect lecturer, so reading is the key to this course. He assigned a lot of reading such as Starr and Classics in Translation. Keep reading and pay special attention to Starr book. Passages in CiT such as Haunting House and Aeneid are also important. Overall, his course is amazing. His review sheet also helps a lot.

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) :)
