Fall 2022 - Overall the class is an easy history GE. The professor's lectures themselves can be confusing and most people stopped attending them. Teo has only 3 papers assigned and posts the questions to each paper 2 weeks before they're due. If you just read the book required for the question you chose you should be fine and won't have to due the weekly readings.
