Winter 2019 - Nair was an easy professor to listen too, her voice is pleasant and she did not inject too much of her own political views into discussions about history. She was a bit critical on tourists, which I thought was unfair because she often generalized them. The pop quizzes were also bothersome but Nair was lenient in giving other opportunities to balance this out, i.e. being present for group discussions. She gives you a study guide for the exams, but it consist of 6 extensive prompts that she chooses from on the day of the test. Thus, if you want to do well, join a study group to help ease the heavy workload! She makes clear how to get a good grade in her class, follow her guidelines and you will do well. Also, for the paper we got to choose an object from Fowler museum to do our essay on, which was a nice break from the norm. Overall the class was very interesting, Nair's lectures were fun to listen to, and most of the readings I enjoyed studying.
