So glad I signed up for this course!
Listening calmly to the lectures without trying to cram for an exam is making this the very best history course that I have ever taken! As an undergraduate science major, my non-science courses were almost all required core courses, and I gave them much less thought than I should have. I am feeling very reassured, however, that I am acquainted with the basic events of world history. Now though, I am finding it so interesting to watch for instances where decisions were made that shaped history to come. It makes the decisions we are facing today so very important!
