OMG, the lectures had nothing to do with the assignments and the readings. All he talks about is his work and interests. Going to lecture is useless!! My TA graded the papers kind of hard andd the online exercise and group projects will drive you crazy.

I would not recommend this class unless you have to take it. lecture is a waste of time and its really boring. the class set-up is horrible: a midterm paper and a final paper are youre entire grade, but you have to do all this work online and if you dont you fail. it makes no sense--theres no incentive to do well. dont take this class.

Spent most of the lectures talking about his own research. Lectures mostly random, not related to reading or sections. Lots of outside work, but overall worth it for 5 units if you get a decent TA. I would not recommend this class if you don't care for busy work. No midterm or final, however, two 8 page papers.

This is the worst class I have taken. TAs grade inconsistently and the required web work is often broken and unusable. There are group assignments that require lots of effort outside class, so you might be screwed if you end up with a bad group like I did. I wish I had dropped this class and found another to meet the NWC requirement. Do not take.

Took this class in W04, very unorganized. Web site wasn't compatible with many PC users, so you had to use school computers. Assignments graded harshly, in spite of the vague instructions. TAs helped when they could during session, but all in all it was just a disaster. How did I manage a B???

Lectures were fairly interesting. He told us exactly what was going to be on the midterm and final which made an A possible with a lot of studying. The final was 50% of the grade though which seemed unfair-- 25% was the midterm and 25% was a play we had to act in...

Not a good class. He tries hard, but views seem dated and the TAs overworked. Some stuff he said in class bordered on offensive. Didn't get a lot out of this class.

Class was not set up well. His lectures were dull and boring, and did not relate at all to the reading. Lastly, he changed the due date of the take home final three times. Its very unprofesional.

Ancient Egyptian Religion was a disappointment. The material was interesting, but Prof Smith has the most disorganized lectures ever, which made the class horrible.
