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

He totally makes this class an easy way to get a GE. Take him, two papers that are one page, just do some of the reading and his tests are online, multiple choice.

One of the best and nicest professors at UCSB. He understands that most students are taking this class for GE reqs so he tries his best to make it stress-free. Very clear grading rubric. The material is interesting. He provides really thorough and helpful study "checklists" that match exactly what shows up on the exams.

Dr. Gallucci is the best professor at UCSB. I really enjoyed his class. He is an amazing lecturer and storyteller. I look forward to the lectures. His grading criteria is clear and he really cares about the student's success. I learned so much about Greek Mythology. I can't wait to take more classes with him. UCSB is very lucky to have him.

Really boring and sometimes forgetful lecturer and over 1/2 the class doesn't attend. But he's an easy grader on essays and tests aren't too difficult so I got to rate him highly.

Lectures can be kind of boring, but if you just show up and take notes and then read the study sheets he puts up on Gaucho Space you'll be fine in this class. It's definitely better if you do the readings too but I didn't find them 100% necessary. Love gucci gallucci, he's a funny guy and super nice. Extra credit offered after final too.

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 is an excellent professor who is knowledgeable in what he teaches. It is an easy course, as long as, you show up to lecture and take notes (p.s try not to fall asleep!). The final and midterm were straightforward, as well as, majority of it was on the study guides (which I recommend filling out).

Didn't go to any lectures and got an A. Midterm and final were very easy. Article summaries graded on completion. I did have to read the book for the book review but got 100% with not too much effort so it was also probably graded on completion. Proofread your work, he takes off points for spelling/grammar. Would recommend, he's a very nice guy.

He has a particular lecture style that many people will not like. He is very monotonous but, is obviously a professor who cares about his students. Participation in section is important for credit.

Easy A class, but there's interesting material! You won't have to show up to lectures for an A, and the exams are pretty simple. Super nice guy, and you won't regret taking the class :)

Professor Gallucci appears to be a very nice person, but his lectures are extremely difficult to follow along and take notes on. Despite this, the material is very easy and attending lectures was optional. Your grade will consist of two papers, a midterm, and a final exam.

Profesor Gallucci is a great professor! Attend class & take notes and youll be sure to pass. Midterm & final were easy. You have to write two one page papers that are really easy and he is clear with his grading structure.

Very boring during lectures but very easy midterm and final. This may be because it was online and therefore open book/note, but overall this class was a super easy A. The readings he assigned were pretty interesting, and you definitely did not have to pay close attention to the lectures to get a good grade.

Took this course during session B of M20. The lectures were quite boring, but the class itself is easy. The rubrics and expectations were clearly defined. Gallucci's biggest flaw is that he doesn't usually check zoom so if he's accidentally muted, he'll stay that way until a TA gets ahold of him... which admittedly has happened a few times.

Gucci Gallucci is not the most entertaining professor, but he is a good man and is very passionate about Greek Myth. Overall, the class was an easy A.

Dr. Gallucci's course examining the historicity of the Trojan War enriched my memories of the visit I took to Turkey this past summer. The course fulfills both the literature GE area and a writing requirement, and Dr. Gallucci makes it clear that an A is achievable with minimal effort -- graded based on 2 papers, 2 exams, and 8 article summaries.

Gucci Gallucci. His lectures can be boring sometimes but he is always willing to take questions. Tests are fairly easy. He knows that his class is mostly for students getting a G.E. credit so he just expects his students do have a general understanding of the course, nothing extreme like other professors.

So. Boring. I was interested in Greek Mythology but Gallucci sucked all the life out of it. I fell asleep almost every lecture, could not pay attention to him. Multiple choice exams with comprehensive study guides, weekly quizzes in section, minimal writing, extra credit opportunities, overall easy A if you read the textbook

Took him for INT 95A during Summer 2019. It was an easy class, though quite boring. There are usually guest speakers, but they weren't much better.

I had Gallucci for Summer 2019. Lectures were unorganized and contained scattered material. Do the reading, attend section, and go to the review sessions the night before each test and you'll be fine.

His lectures are pretty boring but he basically goes over the reading so pay attention. He does review study sessions before the midterm and final which are helpful. You do have to write a book review. Extra credit is available. The midterm and final were m/c and t/f and werent difficult. Going over notes help help and quizlet, just know stories.

Pretty boring lecturer but if you do the reading youll be fine.
