Spring 2017 - Great GE, not too hard or too much work. The subject matter could be clearer, however, if Hudson could use slides instead of his lecture notes. Most of his lectures consist of around 50% historical facts and 50% the conclusions and opinions he draws from those facts. All in all recommend. Grade breakdown: 20% Attendance & Participation in Section 20% Midterm Essay 20% Pop quizzes (there's 4 of them, multiple choice, 10 questions each) 40% Final Essay (Yep, that's right. There's no actual in-class written test for this class. )

Winter 2016 - Best professor! Class lectures are engaging and he lets students express their opinion. Three really interesting books to read, two short papers, one group presentation, and one final paper, overall just the right amount of work. I like that he has us read and learn about important African American figures that we never typically talk about in our history classes. I think he wants students to think deeply about the text and what the authors are trying to convey. Overall, great professor, very nice and approachable when you need help, and also very funny!
