Reviews of professor Joe Campo

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Had no idea what to expect from a German history class and it was very interesting. Participation in class wasn't mandatory, and I really liked being able to just sit and take notes. The time between assignments is good until the end of the semester, which is normal. The papers aren't overly difficult if you put a little thought and time into them.

An amazing and funny professor that challenges you to think critically about history, and not the memorization of facts. Would not recommend if you are not passionate about history or need an easy class for the history requirement. Pop quizzes were not graded and essays were typically graded strictly. Reading/listening to lectures is a must.

I agree with the other review that said he lectures very loudly, but you get used to it. This class is lecture-heavy with lots of note-taking. However, I really enjoyed the course and Professor Campo has a wealth of knowledge so I learned a lot. The class content is interesting and if you listen to feedback/understand the criteria you'll be fine.

A really tough grader for a 100 level history class that people are taking to fulfill a LL. Gives pop quizzes and discussion post as busy work and never actually puts it in the grade book. Post all the slides for the lectures.

Funny professor who explains complex historical concepts and events in a way that is engaging and comprehensible. Make sure you follow assignment instructions to the letter and seek clarification if something isn't clear because he grades essays very strictly although fairly. Class challenges you to think critically as previous poster said.

This professor speaks very, very loud. Lectures well, I suppose.
