Course - Minoan Art and Archaeology Professor Papadapoulos was one of the best professors I've ever had at UCLA. I went into the course with a very mild interest in Minoan culture and left feeling like I'd learned more in 10 weeks than I had in any class before. His lectures are fun, engaging, and he's truly a nice guy. He cares very deeply that his students do well and always answers emails within a couple of hours if contacted before evening. The textbook probably wasn't necessary, but I still enjoyed the reading (especially because it really prepared me for lecture, as he divulges a lot of information really quickly and I wrote like a madwoman for an 1 hr and 15 min straight). He includes plenty of opportunity for extra credit in the midterm and final, which were only slide identification. Spend a lot of time on your research paper (I've heard he can be a tough grader on this one), allow yourself a couple of days to memorize the necessary slides, and there's no reason you shouldn't do well. I got 99%s on every assignment and it was probably my easiest class this quarter.
