| Additional Comments |
This was the first class I took with Harkins. He's a really cool guy. He usually teaches on Tuesday and Thursday so since the classes are long it does get kinda boring. The tests are composed of 4 Identifications which he will give you a list of ten terms and you pick 4 to define. Then 1 or 2 essays, one is worth more that the other. He gives you a study guide before every test, which is why this was one of the best classes I've taken. On the guide he gives you a list of probably 50-ish terms, they obviously won't all be on the test, and most of them will group together for the same big event or person so it's easy to complete. And he gives you 5 essays to outline ahead of time. Three of those will be on the essay. There's no reason you shouldn't do good on the tests because he basically lays it out for you. He has powerpoints everyday.Take good notes. His attendance policy is if you miss 6 you fail. He says he doesn't pick between excused and unexcused but SOMETIMES he will excuse an absence, he only did once for me. If you're a freshmen this isn't a class that you can take for your gen-ed and get an easy A in, you do have to try a little but it's COMPLETELY doable. He gave me an A at the end of the semester, when I should have gotten a B, because he enjoyed my participation in class and liked the fact that I emailed him questions etc. So if you stick out to him in a good way he'll probably bump you up a grade.
