Erickson's CLAS40 is a gem - entertaining lectures and manageable work. Skip the readings and focus on class notes. Use unstuck ai and ChatGPT to breeze through the essays. With some effort, you can easily snag an A.

If you want an easy A, just go to class. Everything that you need to know in order to do well in this class is taught in lecture. Erickson is a super entertaining lecturer as well with a very pleasant and inviting charisma. If you don't go to class, you won't get an A. Despite that, going to class is well worth it. Only class I've genuinely enjoyed

if you want an easy GE, prof erickson's greek myth is a great option. you can get away with doing minimal work and still get a good grade. the papers are worth a lot, but if your ta is chill even that shouldn't be a major stressor. prof erickson's lectures on their own are super entertaining and make greek myth fun!

prof erickson is super funny and entertaining in lecture, and his courseload is manageable and pretty easy. the papers are a bit long, but a little effort goes a long way with them. honestly didn't do a single reading and still did decent in the class. the in-class timed essays are easier than they sound.

There are lots of readings but he goes over them in lecture, which was a lot easier than reading them. Timed essay for the midterm, in-person multiple choice final, and final essay relating Greek Myth to a modern day movie. The lectures are entertaining and easy to understand.

If you dont go to lecture and you dont like going to lectures in general dont take this class. If you try to look at the slides to catch up you wont really catch up. I did the absolute bare minimum and got a C.

Idk i heard this was an easy A but lowkey its not. There is a midterm essay, a 6 page paper, and a 100 question final. Everyone says pay attention in lecture but its so hard cause he just talks and his powerpoints are just pictures. Idk i would have rather wrote an essay than have to memorize 100+ terms.

I loved Erickson. If you go to lecture and just listen, you will get an A. Sections are mandatory which was kinda rough but always got out early anyways. My favorite class that I've taken here. Instead of doing the reading, I would always watch a Youtube vid and it worked the same. Highly recommend

This professor is the best professor I have ever had!!! Not only does he come to class everyday and involve the crowd, but he makes the lesson clear and understanding. The class is made up of 3 assignments which are super easy if you know what you're talking about! Overall, he is one of the most caring and hilarious professor I have taken. 11/10

He is an amazing teacher. He is very entertaining and very passionate. His class isn't too hard just make sure to really pay attention in class and you won't even need to spend your free time on this class. I would definitely recommend this class if you're looking to complete a GE.
