Prof Lee is a wonderful teacher and mentor. He is incredibly passionate about Greek history, and loves facilitating students' questions with thoughtful answers. Being in lecture, anyone can see his enthusiasm for the material being covered, and any questions students ask. His midterm/final are very fair, and essays are relevant to tests.

Prof Lee has by far been one of the coolest teachers at UCSB i've taken. He cares about the subject and about every student understanding the course. He has video lectures you watch at home and then spends all class going in depth on them. Low stakes quizzes every class and discussion for your participation grade, a research paper and a final.

Prof Lee is an amazing person and great teacher. He is passionate about Greek history - speaks Greek too - and shares his enthusiasm with his students. I look forward to taking more classes with Prof Lee :)

He was cool.

AMAZING PROFESSOR. He is very helpful and wants his students to succeed. But he does make you work for your grade. Do all the readings, fill out the study guides and participate. My favorite professor at UCSB.

Does well to keep you interested for the whole hour & 15 minute lecture. Lectures are enjoyable. There is a lot of reading but make sure not to get behind because the final completely relies on you knowing and understanding the entire reader. Confucius is important for essays, the other books are not that important. Overall I loved him as a prof!

Best class i have taken here at ucsb! Super fun and easy! Sections are mandatory however class is not! I only bought the reader and the Confucius book! Actually read the reader! Final is essays which are so fun and he gives u prompt in advance! TAKE HIS CLASS HE ROCKS!

The only textbook you will really need is the Confucius and the reader. Class was boring but Professor Lee was a cool guy.

Professor Lee is the best professor I've had at UCSB. His lectures really catch your attention and make you want to go to class. My quarter we had 3 papers and a final. The papers were tough but fair and the final was easy if you were prepared. He gives a good study guide and really wants you to do well. Got me to love world history.

Professor Lee is an excellent professor. His lectures are very clear and well organized. He is interesting when he talks and not bad to look at either. He is always really helpful and very available to talk with students. I would highly recommend taking any of his classes. I've taken both lower and upper division and they were great!

Prof Lee is so interesting and intelligent, I love taking his classes. He is always experimenting with new ways to make learning better. He likes a lot of participation but is fair and understanding when a person is shy. I would highly suggest taking any of his upper division courses, I've never taken a lower with him.

quiz was ok if you keep up with the readings, no midterm. Final exam was hard but questions were given to study for. And he is good to look at:)

Fast talker and hard to keep up with. No midterm just simple MC questions. Final was kinda hard but he gives you the essay prompts in advance. I recommend actually paying attention in class if you want to do well possible record him since he does talk so fast. Great guy overall btw doesn't take kindly to cheaters!!!

I hated this class. It was so boring. He never made lectures interesting and the midterm was difficult. He fixed the format for the final to make it better though. Make sure to review your notes several times to understand the material because he asks random multiple choice questions.

Good Professor, keeps the entire class interested, great storyteller. Two Papers (3pg and 6pg). Mid Term and Final contain Essay, Maps and IDs. Lee gives you enough info prior to be prepared for all of it. We had 4 books and web readings. I'd Recommend.

Professor Lee will tell you pretty much everything you need to do to get an A in his class. He will give you hints on what the quizzes will cover. His guideline for the final paper points you in the right direction. Plus, he's a interesting albeit laid back lecturer. Recommend taking a course from him.

Lee is an awesome professor. Greek hist can be dry, but he is really cool, extremely knowledgable, and totally clear about what he wants you to know. A lot of the reading can be skipped if you pay attn to what he emphasizes in class and use the study guides. Midterm, final, and a couple easy document reviews. Definitely recommended for hist majors.

His multiple choice ?s for the midterm were hard! but thats ok bc he curved it and said that he's not going to do it anymore, so lucky for those who take him later. Lee is a very entertaining lecturer. The material was pretty dry but he made it interesting. i liked him as a professor AND nice to look at too :P

Ok class. Pretty tough to be honest. Quite some reading, you heavily depend on your TAs though. I read about 30% of all the assigned reading, still pulled off a B.

Smart guy, would take him again. TA makes or breaks the class. Caton was my TA and was nice. For the whole quarter: no joke, did 20% of the reading, if that, got a B in the class, got a curved D+ on the first midterm. Papers were easy, did them both the night before. Final was very fair if you did the reading. At 1st glance: this class seems harder

Professor Lee was one of the best professors I have ever had. He was organized, clear, and knew the subject very well. The class was moderately hard, but going to lectures helped. Reading is also important. I also had a great TA which contributed greatly to my success in the class.

exams are very difficult and did not address any of the bug stuff covered. also, there are way too many documents to read wherein it becomes the whole class, just reading document after document that really have no point. The whole 2 series is horrible, try and take other history classes

Excellent teacher. Very helpful. Clear lecture style, interested in the big picture not meaningless details. He has not one trace of arrogance which is refreshing in a professor.

Well I just took this dude's midterm, and it was **** hard. If you did ALL the reading and THOROUGHLY understood it, you might get an A. Multiple choice were hard but fair, some of the short answers were absolutely ridiculous. Interesting teacher, nice guy, but **** that midterm. Just wow.
