I really enjoyed taking Ancient Astronomy with Professor Glikman. We learned a ton about ancient astronomy figures in China, Greece, Rome, Babylon, etc., but we also learned some more modern stuff such as how to use math to calculate the date of a solar eclipse. Be aware that you'll have to do astronomy practicals which involve going to the roof of bihall at night in below zero weather. Professor Glikman is great though and super enthusiastic about astronomy.

As someone who had always been interested in fun space facts, this class was incredibly interesting. Eilat is extremely passionate about the subject, and it makes the class all the more interesting. The workload is not bad at all, one problem set a week, biweekly quizzes, one incredibly easy "project", and a final. Highly recommend this class, especially to non-physic majors and non-stemy people

It was nothing special. Your regular average difficulty physics class. The class could have been more interesting. the textbook i bought. now i’m adding more words to make this review long enough to satisfy the word count.
