Professor: Logic of Anthropological Inquiry
The best aspect of this class was that it had no exams and a manageable workload, including readings that built upon each other. Students appreciated the professor’s lectures as well as the interesting conversations he fostered. Many students felt that value was lost in this class due to a lengthy grading process, and papers were returned without feedback. Students felt the best way to improve this class was to have papers returned in a timely manner with sufficient feedback. Prospective students should know that this is a reading intensive class. 9
