Fr. Scully is a tough grader when it comes to research papers however his class isn't hard. Quizzes are curved which is very helpful especially for first year students adjusting to college. He's very kind and dedicated to helping students when he can

He is terrible.  He just gives so much material and does not teach any of it.  The midterm and final are extremely difficult even to great students.

Do not ever take Scully. His class is so boring, and he is the most awkward person I have ever talked to. Every conversation I had with him he was condescending. If you want to have nightmares studying for a final and midterm take his class. This was very challenging for a introductory history class. Stay clear from him as a professor.

Scully lectures heavily and doesn't give many assignments. Only a couple quizzes, two papers, midterm and a final. I really did not enjoy his class as he comes off as arrogant and rude to students (had a personal experience with this), and doesn't take into consideration of events going on campus around major due dates (midterm after fall break)

He's a nice man who is obviously very passionate about what he teaches. You don't have to do much reading, as he uploads all of the outlines we'll follow in class. He's a pretty tough grader on the research papers, but he does curve quizzes. Study for exams, he does have a lot of "obscure" and specific questions. Not bad compared to most others.

A very awkward guy. He seems like the kind of prof who probably prefers researching and writing books/papers to teaching classes. He grades tests on a HUGE curve. You can easily access all his notes on Canvas. His papers seemed fairly graded. His exams were not overwhelmingly difficult. I would recommend him for 110. I'm taking him again for 111.

Father Scully is very passionate about his teaching and obviously knows a lot about the subject - lectures are really well organized. Reading the textbook helps but isn't necessary, but do read the documents (they are asked about in detail on quizzes). Transition to Zoom was without live direction and there was a final research paper (8-10 pgs).
