Long tests and boring lectures, but fairly easy class.
He assigns a ridiculous amount of reading but honestly never read and only watched 3/4 of his recorded lectures. Easy to get a decent grade with minimal effort if already good at thinking thru anthro questions. Tests were true/false and some multiple choice. Lectures are boring but normally talks about at least 1 cool thing during them
Toobys alright. Hes old and talks slow. The class content is fairly straight forward if youre already familiar with bio Anth. I wouldnt take it if youre not in the major though. He has a lot of required readings and if I wanted to buy all the books I probably couldve gotten the A. Just go to lecture and listen youll be fine.
Incredibly smart man but painfully boring lectures. Slides didn't make sense, they were more for him to remember certain points, bad for visual learners. Problem sets were also long and assigned his entire book the first week. Maybe he's better in person but I wouldn't take this course unless you have to. Seriously, there was so much reading!!!!!!!
The lectures were a bit boring and seemed somewhat redundant. Reading the textbook and talking to TAs will suffice to get a good grade. There was a lot of common sense questions on tests and the readings were fairly easy and short.
Literally the most boring dry lecturer I have ever had. So old he speaks at the volume of a mouse and goes on long unrelated tangents. I understand he basically invented the discipline but really needs to retire. Also tried to make us take our final in person during corona. Luckily you don't need to go to lectures at all to pass the class.
