I absolutely loved this course; it was honestly one of my favorite courses I've taken at Midd so far! Rather than taking a generalized look at rural America (as the course title and description suggested) we focused entirely on Appalachia, deconstructing the stereotypes that have long been associated with the region in everything from the news to pop culture. Professor Nash has immense enthusiasm for the material he teaches, which brings considerable energy to lectures and discussions alike. He also weaves folk music (and the history behind it) into his lessons quite regularly, which I absolutely loved!

Antonia is amazing. Her syllabus made it seem like she was going to be a tough grader, but that wasn't the case in my experience. The class was pretty chill (a short book a week, weekly discussion posts & short quizzes and just 2 short papers). I would definitely recommend this class.
Great professor and very understanding, the readings are exciting. Professor Sheldon is a beneficial professor who makes time for his students and will entertain an idea you have as long as you feel strongly about the topic.
