Professor Witkin clearly cares about what he is teaching in this course, but it was not my style. Very heavy on readings, and quite a few papers that had to be written exam-style. If Greek tragedy is something you are interested in, I would recommend it, but it was not something that I would want to take again.

I had no expectations for this course but was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it and that largely has to do with the great professor. Witkin is a super sweet guy, super passionate about the material and is also very lenient with grading; I remember some students turning in writing assignments months after they were due. Great class, but honestly the enjoyment of the class is largely dependent on how enthusiastic and invested your fellow classmates are as the course requires a lot of student led discussions (my classmates weren't the most passionate).

Very hard class. Lots of reading and the exams were difficult as well. However, Professor Witkin is a great guy and he is passionate about the material. It was a great way to learn more about the Greek Classics.
