The guy is an ok lecturer, stories at the beginning of lecture are good. Go to lecture as there were things said that WEREN'T IN THE READINGS and r on final. Midterm and final were mildly hard bc i didnt do readings, its an easy pass tho. Jason is a solid TA. The two lady TAs at the review sessions couldn't answer anyones questions dont get them.

I was very disappointed because I was excited about taking a class on Greek Mythology and found that, with this professor, the things that were said were very "on the surface". Nothing that was discussed in lecture had any importance or meaning. It was very elementary and did not provoke any thought whatsoever.

Professor Dunn, each lecture before he starts class he will tell a short story which allows late people to get there without missing anything. Overall, there isn't any need to go to lecture as long as you do all the reading. If you don't do the reading, he does a short summary of the books. Know the themes of the class and you will do well.

He is such a sweet man. I enjoyed lecture and all of the reading material. He always began lecture with a short story, to capture your interest. Midterm and Final were not difficult. Also requires a "creative project", which is something simple like a painting or poster. Over all, it was my favorite class this quarter.

Lectures were boring. Readings weren't bad. I felt as if he didn't go over the readings much in class..go to section(quizzes) and read and you should be fine. I fell asleep every lecture and still got a fantastic grade. Creative project=pretty dumb. Take home essay was fairly easy. Midterm consisted of 8 IDs and essay. Final=multiple choice

Funny and nice guy. Lectures are actually interesting! Don't even need to read. Just pay attention and take good notes. With any luck you'll get a good TA that makes study guides.

Dunn is a nice guy and really knows his stuff. Midterm is essays and ids and not too bad. Your ta can really make or break you, final is written by tas not prof, mine was really hard and only focused on 2 days of lectures. I would say take this class with any of the other profs for an easy A. Do NOT have Jessica as your ta.

He's a really nice guy and an interesting professor. The readings are a bit complicated but he explains them well and the midterm and final are very easy. You can take this class for a somewhat easy A.

He's a great guy. There are about 6 books you need but they're all pretty short. The readings are a LITTLE bit confusing but he does a good job at explaining them. The midterm and final were pretty easy. Take this class!

If you're a classics major you've probably already read all the texts...a few times over. But now comes in depth analysis of the plays plus a new twist... comparing them with modern renditions... Class was fun, but a 20-25 page paper is difficult to write.

Interesting class, not bad... but not great. Read plays, and talked about them, only down sides were presentations and a 15+ page paper.

I took this class in the summer. WE had to read apx. 86 pages of epic every night. Readings are more b/c 6 week session. Quizzes are easy if you did the reading. Know quotes and overall themes and your greek terms! Final was an essay. (choose from 3 questions to answer) Good teacher

He was monotonous and repetative, plus he was a little mean with comments about papers, etc.

The material was expansive and repetitive. The professor was not available for consultation on the papers. A horrible class taught by a less than adequate Professor.

Awesome professor. Very clear and easy to understand. Tests are very easy... stay on top of the readings and you'll do fine.

He was a ****head. I went for help on a paper and he did nothing but babble about his children, and was very unhelpful. He may be excited about his teaching but he was not very nice, or sexy

he's such a friendly guy :] definitely an interesting class! it was probably my favorite this quarter. he is very excited about what he teaches, which in turn really makes students excited about it... even if reading all those myths can get a little lengthy. but i enjoyed the class and he's a good teacher. very genuine.
