one of the most interesting classes i have taken, but one of the best parts was the professor, he was just "authentic," I got a C+, but i am a moron, took a 19 unit load, take home midterm and final

I took both 160 A and B and absolutely loved both of them. Harris is a very sweet old man but he definitely knows all there is to know about southern history! The take home midterm and final are easy as long as you take good notes in class (which i really recommend not missing). He's always there to help and will answer anything you ask! Loved him!

I took HIST160DR with Harris because it was the only one that fit into my schedule since I was graduating. I'll give him that he's very knowledgeable, but also a little disorganized and dry. The readings were dry and repetitive. I did little to none of the reading, but still pulled out a B+.

I don't know why anyone would put less than a 5 on easiness level for this class. If you take good notes take this class because on both the TAKE HOME midterm and final all I did was copy my notes into an essay and got an A- in the class. Make sure you go to class every day, I also didn't do any of the reading since it was all summarized in class

After a few weeks I couldn't stand Harris. He's a great guy but he always repeats everything!! His grading isn't fare at all. I used a different argument about a subject and he marked me half off saying I didn't use his ideas. Also, we didn't get our midterms back until the last week of classes! No one knew their grade!

Like any proseminar its your own work but prof does not waste any time in the proseminar usually you go for an hour sometimes even less. He is always there for office hour you can see every week and very understanding about being late or needing advice, just dont plagerize he is like a walking encyclopedia about Southern literature.
