Reviews of professor Brandon Baker

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Brandon is kind and an amazing lecturer for Ancient Cities. His knowledge of Ancient Rome especially is incredibly vast and you can ask him nearly any question and he knows the answer off the top of his head. The lectures are interesting and overall this was a good class to take for a Gen-Ed. I may be a tad biased because I adore history though.

Brandon is a great lecturer and is clearly passionate and knowledgeable about the subject. He's a pretty fair grader too. Assignments consists of 3 (2.5-page) papers and 8 reading quizzes throughout the semester which are easy. Attendance isn't taken but there are occasionally pop quizzes at the end of class but they're easy if you pay attention.

Took this class over a summer session, so it was super lowkey and informal. I already had some basic knowledge of the material but even if you didn't you'd be perfectly fine. The only grades were quizzes, tests, and a short paper, but all of those were very easy. Pay attention in the lectures and you don't need to read at all. Definitely recommend
