Pretty decently easy GE class. Discussion participation is part of your grade - you get 4 quizzes in lieu of a midterm, 2 papers, and a final.

Readings are so important!! It's so hard to bullshit the quizzes if you haven't 75% of the things you get in the quizzes, but as long as you've read and gone to section you'll do fine.

Material is not hard, mostly a memorization based class.
Selling my Course Reader + all necessary books (The Prince, The Donation of Constantine) + final notes + completed and graded quizzes (got full marks) for $60 OBO!! Almost perfect condition for physical books. Text me **********

Easy and fun GE to take. Light readings that don't demand much time. Class has three quizzes for a total of 30%. There are also two essays for a total of 30%. Discussions count for 10%. Final counts for 30%. Exams are quite easy, and essays are graded leniently.

Fun lectures with entertaining professor, but not mandatory attendance. Good choice if you want an easy GE for an easy A.

This class requires a great deal of reading. Not an easy GE in my opinion.

Definitely worth the hard work and readings because the TAs do reward you for giving as much detail as possible on the exams. Selling the hard copy course reader and On the Donation of Constantine for the class! Text me at ********** if interested.

Class is relatively an easy GE. As long as you do the readings and listen along the lectures (which are actually pretty interesting), you really don't have to prepare much for the midterm or final. Assignments are also pretty straightforward, so I would not worry too much about the essays. I definitely would recommend anyone to take this GE. I am also selling the all the course readings (including course reader, "Portable Machiavelli," "On the Donation of Constantine") for $65. Email me at ************* if interested.

One of the easiest classes I ever took. The only reason why I got an A- was because I missed too many mandatory discussion sections. If you get the right TA, you will get the entire midterm and final in powerpoint format as review material.

This professor is awesome. Definitely a class to take. As easy as everyone says it is. I didn't read one bit and got an A+. Just show up to class and write down what professor says. Quizlet before the midterm and final. Reword what he says in lecture for your essays. Boom, done easy. Very engaging lecturer, highly recommend if you want a chill easy class. As long as you show up, you'll be fine - it can be a little hard if you don't show up.
