Winter 2024 - This class went over at least one different Lincoln writing per week, sometimes including other politicians like Douglas. All you had to do was show up for this class, and of course it helped if you talked, since it is a class discussion. I rarely spoke though (thanks, social anxiety!), but was always attentive and showed up during office hours to catch up on a missed discussion the day prior. I think this class went over important documents that give us more of a perspective on how the political climate was during Lincoln's time, and what his thoughts were on highly debated issues. I think this class was good for learning about American history during Lincoln's life and I recommend it to whoever enjoys history or likes Lincoln.
