Disregard all the other reviews because they are from 2010... Professor Lapin is super friendly, understanding, and nice. He is a good instructor it is just that the lectures are boring. It really depends on how interested you are in the topics on the syllabus. For some reason, I thought the class was going to be super easy like decorating menorahs and reading preschool versions of the topics, clearly, I was wrong. You have to write an outline 1x a week on the chapters, and it it's easy but the more detail the better the grade. Quizzes are kind of hard if you don't know the material but you can easily Google. He likes all of your assignments to be really detailed, especially the essays. Overall, I would recommend the class IF you are interested in early Judaism before the Holocaust. The class just wasn't in my interest but a super nice professor.
