The course was interesting but at times the mini journal assignments every week would become a bit exhausting onto top of the essays and research you had to do for the course. Professor Bright is a great professor overall.
This course was incredibly interesting and gave me an understanding of life in general in the middle east that I didn't have before. However, this is not a class you should take to fill a fourth class or round out your schedule. There is a TON of super dense reading and both the weekly discussion posts and the papers for this class require a lot of thought. Professor pinar is great at teaching and is very passionate, but I would not reccomend if you expect a heavy workload.

David Stoll was the reason I took this class... and it didn't disappoint. This was much more different and difficult compared to the Cultural Anthropology class he teaches. In ANTH0241, you definitely have to use more of your own noggin in tackling the concepts, questions, and readings that are dished out. This class is what you make of it. Do the readings, participate in the discussions, learn to synthesize your own ideas. Stoll told us explicitly that the point of the course is to make his students better writers. The end of the semester project is a research paper, in which you can decide the topic.
