Reviews of professor Jan Gadeyne

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
This class was excessively difficult for no reason. When studying abroad in Rome, you'd think Roman History would be a great class to take - museums, monuments, and so on. No. Long walks in the heat to stare at a building that used to be a water pipe, not even slightly interesting. The professor is far from kind and does not care to help students.

Jan is one of the most effectively difficult professors - with a big heart, and high expectations. He is non-traditional, he likely scares some people off... but if you are excited to learn and engage with one of the world's leading experts who is also a great human, you will find Jan to be amazing.

Professor Gadeyne is a great professor who knows about and cares for the material he teaches. His rating here is undeservedly low. He makes a great effort to really get to know each and every student in his classes and draw them into class discussion (thought he has a brusque way of doing it, haha). One of my favorite professors in college.

I would not recommend if you want a class where you can enjoy onsite visits and not have to constantly be chasing after your professor taking notes. Also no bathroom breaks or drinking water during class. Honestly one of my least favorite classes I have taken so far in college. No prep for midterm or final.
