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.

Fall 2021 - This is a good time no matter which way you spin it. Teo is just so engaging and bright when he speaks. I hung onto his every word. However, I thought the title of this course was a bit misleading. There are no readings and there's not enough scholarship as the course title would indicate. Teo simply shares some oral history on what he knows about a select few buildings in Downtown Los Angeles. Also, there's A LOT of walking, so come prepared!

Winter 2021 - What can I say about Teo that hasn't already been said? He's a master lecturer, a true OG Professor. He is so sweet and his lectures are so engrossing. He's old school so he doesn't use slides, but try to write down as much as he can cause he's got so many words of wisdom. This particular Fiat Lux I took was on Plato's Republic, and I could listen to him talk about Greek history for hours. It's as if he's sitting on an armchair and cracking open this very old volume of history's secrets and reading from it aloud. Lovely lovely man, visit him in Office Hours.
