HIST 104
American Civilization Since the Late Nineteenth Century
5*****
Pros: Study guides tell you exactly what is on the exams. General notes given in class about the information in assigned readings
Cons: Exams are easy, but too long to get coherent essays done.
Professor Salzmann is a fair teacher. Read the text, and you will be fine. All tests and quizzes are essay format. They are very easy, but there is a lot to do which constricts how creative and detailed you can be in your answers. Very nice professor and knowledgeable.

The class was interesting. I previously did not like AmericanHistory because in school were taught the same thing every year but this changed my outlook. It gave a more real version.

HIST 300
History Methods Colloquium
5*****
Pros: Always is wiling to help

Easy instructions

Quick responses to emails
This class is typically what you expect. Learning how to write a quality upper division paper. The class can get a little dry at 3 hours long, but professor Salzmann realizes this and usually lets the class go 30 minutes early. Awesome professor and an overall good guy for any history class.
