Summer 2020 - If you have not taken Professor Lunde yet you are missing out. He is not only immensely passionate about the subject but he cares about his students so much. I have become a Scandinavian minor because of him and I highly recommend it. Any Scand. class that I enroll in is taught by him. He is the best!
