I had Professor Kendrick for both fall and winter of the GE30 cluster in 2011/2012. Based on lecture time, he was the secondary professor on the team, which also included Nagy and Tangherlini. Kendrick seems a little high on himself, but generally his lectures were good and informative. However, he tends to ramble and never seems to get entirely through what he wants to say. I also found it a little obnoxious that we had to buy his (expensive) book and then we only ending up reading a few chapters from it. Overall, Kendrick was fine though and his spring seminar was one of the more popular.

Took the GE Cluster 30 series up until the end of winter quarter. COMPLETE waste of time, especially 30B, when they decided to have no midterm or final, and then complain about a drop in lecture attendance. Nice logic there guys. It's an easy A, but seriously, so boring. So I suggest bringing a laptop and going on stumble or something to help pass the time. Specifically for Kendrick though, he turned out to be a douche bag. His seminar was easily the most interesting and naturally filled up the fastest. So I emailed him asking for a PT number because I was very interested in his seminar. He tells me that he doesn't intend on having anymore students because it is already filled. I mean that's ok, except for when I check back a few days later, he let two more people into his seminar. THEN, I find out that a few people in my discussion had the same problem with him, and that he even tried to dissuade them from taking core major classes to take some ridiculous, unimportant seminar on mythology.

Overall, if you want an easy class, although, it probably wont be next year because this was the first year it was offered, then you can easily get by. But just know that this class is as dry and boring as can possibly be. Oh, not to mention, the readings are completely unrelated, long, and INCREDIBLY boring.
