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.
Prof. Lee is very knowledgable in the subject of Bronze Age Greece. Keep up with the readings and use his study guides for tests. He is open to questions and uses powerpoint for all lectures.
Great teacher, very helpful, offers extra credit, gives you a study guide, which the test has exactly same stuff on it, gives you mini essays, which only needs to be 250-500 words, I would def. recommend any one to take any of his classes, one of the best teachers at UCSB
Class was a bit boring at times, but Prof Lee is the best, his lectures are very clear and organized, his tests are very straightforward and fair, and there's not a massive amount of reading which is nice. He really made the best out of a sort of boring subject. Def. take any class with Lee!!!
Professor was clear and precise. Lectures were will organized and included handouts. One of my favorite classes, one of my favority professors.
A REALLY KNOWLEDGABLE GUY. HE KNOWS HIS STUFF AND GIVES CLEAR CONCISE LECTURES. HIS EXAMS ARE FAIR, NOT TO HARD NOT TO EASY.

The class was a bit challenging but the questions he asked for the midterm and final were very thought-provoking. He is very friendly and appreciates it when you stop by his office hours.
