Incredibly straight forward and organized lecturer. He leaves no room for confusion and he definetly gets his point accross

Very clear and organized. No midterm, 2 papers, final with essay questions in advance. His prompts are very hard, require lots of preparation. Left feeling I had learned a lot.

Probably the most clear, concise, organized history prof ever. The readings are so few and easy for a history class. Besides, he looks like Greg Kinnear!

awesome intro class for any freshman or anyone. he is such a great lecturer. clear, concise, organized. weekly homework on readings...not hard at all. two papers about 6 pg and then a final exam is an essay given in advance. content was interesting and he is a pleasure to listen to.

Great professor ... one of the best. His lectures were logical and easy to understand. I got a B+, which is mainly the TAs grade given to me. Make sure you know how your TA grades, since (s)he can screw you over!

Majewski is a fantastic teacher. His lessons are, gasp, well planned, well lectured, and his tests are fair. He gives you primary readings and lectures that give enough sides to the a story that you start to see why History is, gasp again, intertesing.

Majewski is fantastic, had him for 17B as well and immediately signed up when I saw he was teaching. Great lecturer, clearly very kind and cares about his students. Great option for History majors and those who need an American History GE.

Majewski is very knowledgable and evidently passionate about the Civil War. I found some grading feedback to be vague and criteria to be unclear but he is willing to help if you have questions. Definitely go to office hours, he gave up to 3.5 points extra on the final which is out of 30 points. Would take again.

Majewski is my all-time favorite History professor! As a HPPL major a lot of my classes can feel boring and unengaging at times as the lectures aren't interesting but I show up to all of his classes because he is such a great speaker. The reading isn't necessary but helps make writing the papers a lot easier. Also can turn in notes for extra credit

Professor Majewski is a blessing of a man. He is very clear and well spoken in his lectures, and he will give students opportunities to succeed. I took HIST 164C for my American History Requirement. All assignments were take home (not hard at all) and he recorded Friday lectures, plus he was ok with ChatGPT if you follow his guidelines and rules.

Dr. Majewski is one of my favorite professors. I've taken a few other courses with him and I plan on taking as many as his classes as I possibly can. Interesting readings, paper requirements are clear and graded fairly. Can't say enough good things about him.

Class graded by 2 essays and 2 short reading responses (Final essay was cancelled due to TA strike). Fair amount of reading but the material was interesting and his lecturing style is easy to understand.

Professor Majewski has been my favorite professor so far at UCSB he is so caring and always has his students best interest at heart. Some ta's grade a little harshly, but I think getting a B in this course is super achievable.

Majewski is one of the best professors I've had in the history department. His lectures are really organized, and he speaks so you're able to get down the powerpoint slides AND what he's talking about. Reading was also really interesting. As long as you go to class and study the midterm questions he gives you, you're golden.

he's very clear and the book reminds me of a book from high school. this class made me actually interested in history. he uses the iclicker for attendance to give you a better chance of getting a good grade. papers are pretty clear too. i reccommend history 17B.

His history of the Civil War upper division class is a must-take for any history major.

I love Prof. Majewski! He is one of my favorite teachers I've ever had. Make sure you go to office hours because he is very kind and helpful, as well as interesting. The class is very engaging, and he teaches the civil war sort of like telling a story. He is the best!!!

He is awesome, great lecture, makes it really intersting, not very hard. I actually feel like I learned something

Had him first quarter of freshman...Most impressed by him. He's organized, well written out lectures and you can do fairly well if you work at it. Definitely a great Prof.

great teacher

Loved his class! His knowledge on the subject is seemingly limitless and he obviously loves to teach. Very interesting material to begin with, and he brings it to life in a way you can't help but enjoy. Highly recommended course and professor. If you have the chance, don't miss him!

Loved this class! I never missed a lecture and actually enjoyed them. Very clear and organized take good notes cause it helps for midterms and finals. He gives out a study guide for midterm and final so you don't have to read til then! Great professor!
