...these cores, and they’re aware that non-concentrators often make them look like hot stuff (easing the unspoken section curve.)History B-06, “The Roman Games,” while not an “Images of Alexander the Great”-style gut, is nevertheless a crowd-pleaser among the non-concentrators. “Staged beast hunts” in the course description? Straight money. Among other antiquarian choices, Professor Christopher P. Jones’ History B-09, “The Christian Revolution” is well regarded (but not taught...
...Necipoglu-Kafadar’s lectures tend toward disorganization, with lots of confusing slides, which makes the class boring but pretty easy. Speaking of slides, there’s B-21, “The Images of Alexander the Great.” The course is a legendary gut, and requires little actual work except for some slide memorization exam time. If you’re not one for actually “studying,” do yourself a favor and take this course. Make sure with any course, but especially with Lit B, to shop the courses...
...whiskey into lecture, and you’ve got the perfect atmosphere to do some Irish learnin’. If you’re looking to stay sober and just get this Core out of the way, “The Rome of Augustus” is a painless gut. The lectures are pretty entertaining, but you can probably sleep through them (yes, they’re at noon) and still do fine. This course will also save you some serious cash: buy the sourcepack to memorize author names and prep for IDs, but otherwise some handy SparkNotes will...
...stable relationship (apparently, it's not just sex). You'll even learn exciting new words, like "tribadism" (Google it!). Section discussion runs from "frank" to "raunchy" as people open up on the finer points of love, gender, and anal sex. As taught by Rodriguez, this class was a definite gut. The TFs were far too kind and laid-back to care about a late paper here or there (We wonder why they were so relaxed?), and the papers were on sex-related topics of the students’ choosing. While the exams sometimes threw in surprisingly specific questions from...
...general, students who come to Science B expecting QR 34, “Counting People”-esque pseudo-science—in other words, a total gut that requires you to learn little to nothing–will be disappointed. What you’re getting instead is a warp-speed tour of one area of actual science. And unlike most cores, if you skip too many lectures or don’t do your reading scrupulously, you’re actually a little bit screwed. It’s almost like taking a real class...
