You will learn a lot in this course - not just names and dates, but also some pretty interesting and niche parts of Civil War History that you wouldn't learn anywhere else. Morsman is a great professor who always engages with students. However, if you are not a fan of discussion, this may not be the course for you as participation is 30% of your grade.

Morsman is very enthusiastic and cares a lot about the material. She makes lectures very engaging, and readings tend to be fairly interesting. The workload includes readings, a paper, quizzes, and a long group research project. It is not very difficult, and Morsman is very kind. The structure feels similar to a high school class. The workload is very manageable, and I feel like I gained a strong overall understanding of the Civil War. Discussion is very important to Morsman, but discussions are comfortable, and she is pretty accommodating.

We had a big final presentation and two papers. Also had to read two books in a very short amount of time but the books were really interesting. Amy's style of teaching is very good and I would take the course again.
