The lectures felt like story hour -- very engaging speaker and obviously very knowledgeable.

midterm gets a cheat sheet, and the final is a paper. Each week has a reading and a short writing assignment, but it's def manageable. He's really nice and passionate about the class. My TA was also great

Lecture is def mandatory, but he has been my fav lecturer so far!! He is so entertaining and makes lectures seem like a fun gossip sesh! Only prof I will ever glaze

take this class! graded on 1 midterm where he gives all possible q's + a cheat sheet, section participation, final essay, and 6 300 word papers. i didnt go to class at all after the midterm (go before to get notes and be able to do well on the midterm). i got a 99 in the class bc lectures are interesting, content+paper arent hard, midterm is easy.

I loved this professor. He was an amazing lecturer and I actually went to class. The grade mainly depends on your TA and mine was hard but AMAZING. I found this class very fulfilling and interesting. There was a midterm in-class essay and 2 vocab q's and a final paper. The rest of the grade is weekly writings and participation. Take this class!

He is a great lecturer and class was pretty easy. If you go to lecture and take notes you will get an A. There were weekly 300 word mini papers, pretty easy and top 6 count, a midterm where you get a full page of notes to bring, and a final paper that was pretty easy. This was a great class that I really enjoyed.

The professor gives good lectures. The grade is determined by the ta.

As someone who doesn't like history I found his lectures to be very engaging. The midterm is free response questions, where you get a page of notes. The final is a 5-7 page paper. Section is mandatory and you are expected to do a lot of reading some weeks, but it is definitely manageable. Only homework is 6 essay responses to the weekly readings.

He is a very good lecturer and makes the content fun to learn! This class was very easy as long as you do the reading and pay attention in lecture.

You could do well if you are passionate about history, otherwise you'll find the lectures and readings very boring. There are readings every week paired with a 300 word written response, a midterm exam, and a final paper, and they were all graded pretty harshly by my TA. Overall, the experience largely depends on your TA.

Super passionate and engaging. I'm not a history person, but I loved his lectures. The assigned readings are fairly easy to understand and pretty interesting. The lecture slides have ver y little information on them, so don't skip class :)

Professor Bouley is a great professor! I loved his lectures, they were very engaging and entertaining, there are weekly writing assignments but only 6 are required. The midterm is defining some terms and an essay and the final is a paper. I highly recommend this class as the content was interesting as well.
