Elizabeth Conner HIST326 Expecting a B+ Anonymous 12/10/2020	Dr. Conner was the sweetest, she was more than understanding throughout the entire semester and I am grateful for that. A friend of mine died earlier this year from COOVID and her leniency made a difficult situation bearable. With that being said, I did not enjoy this course in the slightest bit. Every assignment was dreadful. I love history, but they were boring and the fact that every week we were assigned the same exact thing was dull and draining. Every week two zoom meetings, a quiz and a writing assignment. Like clockwork. Nothing was worse than the the zoom meetings where we sat for over an hour and she just read and explained powerpoint slides. It would have been nice if we had different types of assignments. Maybe a group or creative project, making a timeline, more discussion boards( discussion boards are amazing tools, utilize them), a reading that was not 30 pages long, maybe even sprinkle in a kahoot or two. There are so many different types of assignments that could improve this course. I mean this as respectfully as possible because I liked this woman a lot, but I would rather eat a pair of bootcut jeans than take this course again.
Arthur Eckstein HIST326 Anonymous 01/31/2019	Took his class couple years ago. Worst professor I've ever had. What a bitter old man. He was very opinionated, and it was annoying. Keep your modern political view to yourself. If I want to know how bad Trump as a president is, I would sign up a political science or whatever class instead of a course of the damn Roman republic. Even I'm interested in the ancient history in general, his class just made you feel sleepy. Pretty pointless class since you can get most stuff from Wikipedia.
