While some professors seem like they’ve just returned from their 10-year field assignment in a Xi’an rice paddy, others like Peter Bol are among Harvard’s most knowledgeable, accessible and enthusiastic faculty. Bol and Mark Elliot warrant praise for playing Madonna in Hist A-13, “China: Traditions and Transformations,” a class all concentrators are encouraged to take (despite trying unsuccessfully to teach 6,000 years of history in 14 weeks). Ex-Dean of the Faculty Bill Kirby is teaching a new class...
