CLASS20A . Gallucci R 6 Months Ago

grade was just two 400-word essays, a midterm and final which were all open note/book. lots of reading if you actually read the texts he assigns. essays are basically 100% if you just do them. his classes fill up super-quick, understandably why.

Easy GE. The lectures were boring you don't need to go to do well. There were two short essays, a midterm (online), and a final (online). Great class overall.

CLAS171 . Gallucci R 1 Year, 3 Months Ago

Easiest class I have actually ever taken in my life. Midterm (30%), Final (35%), 400 word essay (10%) and 1400 word essay (25%). I honestly didn't watch a single lecture and have done really really well on all of the assignments. And Ralph is a great guy!!

Solid upper div class - 2 small papers, midterm, final, attendance is not mandatory. I've taken 5 classes from the Galluch and he's one of my favorite professors. He's a fair grader and is just a really nice and caring prof. Will give you extra credit opportunities.

This class was very easy to follow, and not difficult at all. Gallucci gives a lot of prep for the midterm and exam. Midterm and exam is based heavily on what was discussed in lecture and some readings. Overall, I would take him again.

so easy- final and midterm multiple choice and true/false questions online. Easiest 400 word essay. Lectures were uninteresting and unhelpful- often a bit rambly- but open note and book tests made this class so easy

Loved this class. Super easy. Graded on 1 midterm, a 400 word essay, and a final. Final and midterms were super easy (both online). Essay was basically graded on completion. Zoom lectures were honestly not useful but he was very caring.

Amazing professor. The best professor at UCSB. I've taken the honors courses with him as well. I strongly recommend them. The reading material is very interesting including his own paper. I enjoy his lectures very much. Highly recommend to take an honors course with him because the class is smaller, engaging and interesting. He is very knowledgable

CLASS50 . Gallucci R 1 Year, 6 Months Ago

Grade 50% final, 40% midterm, 10% essay. Tests all multiple choice. Worst for learning, best for easy A. If you want an easy GE, take it 100% recommended. He seems very tired every lecture, and almost always appears for lectures late. Holds review sessions before tests that help. Lectures very disorganized. Nobody knows what's going on.

Classics 20A was great. Dr. Gallucci is a great lecturer. The reading material was very interesting from Sansone, Iliad, Odyssey, tragedies and comedies. Dr. Gallucci explains the material well and I enjoyed his lectures. Agree with the other reviews, he is the best professor at UCSB. He makes the material enjoyable and is very caring and kind.

Professor Gallucci is amazing. I really enjoyed his class. I learned so much about archeology Early Bronze age to the hellenistic period. I can now recognize pottery, sculpture and architectural styles. His lectures are enjoyable. He is very knowledgable. He deserves a teaching award for his dedication. Highly recommend! Best professor at ucsb.
