...available for weekly check-ins, junior paper advising, or default company at your House faculty dinner. And there is at least one all-you-can-eat sushi party every semester. Add some sake-bombs and you may as well be concentrating at Shilla. While overzealous but endearing department chair Michael Puett will tell you as many times as there are people in China that sophomore tutorial will change your life, sophomore tutorial, as Confucius says, eff-ing blows. Survive this and you deserve a library named after you. That Widener guy didn’t even survive the Titanic...
...socialist realist works (including Eisenstein and the cinematic montage school), and other decidedly cool Russian stuff.Our top pick is FC 76, “Nazi Cinema: Fantasy Production in the Third Reich,” taught by the world’s reigning authority on the subject, German department chair Eric Rentschler. Rentschy, as we affectionately call him, is a fantastic professor, and this is an eye-opening course. Weekly screenings range from Leni Riefenstahl’s visually stunning propaganda pictures, “Triumph of the Will” and “Olympia” (required texts...

Coincidentally enough, it’s the subject of his course, History of Science 111v, “Leonardo da Vinci: The Science of Art and the Art of Science.”The new chair of the department, Anne Harrington, is one of the most popular professors in the College.

As for the hipsters, the range of languages and interests that draw people to Literature results in a culturally and academically diverse group of minds that is more United Nations than Urban Outfitters. The faculty has some flavor and diversity...
...pick your poison: 17/27 or 20/30? Chemistry 17/27 is the typical pre-med track, usually taken sophomore year. Chem 17 is a crash course on, well, everything. Fortunately, Professor Jacobsen has no trouble with this. He can erase with his right hand while writing with his left and draw chair conformations in two seconds flat. Needless to say, the class’ female population describes him as very charismatic and his office hours are always packed. Although the class is difficult, most students (guys, too) find it quite worthwhile. The same is rarely said for Chem 27. Unfortunately, the material?...
