Comment:
He is a nice guy and all, but this is the most boring class I was ever in. I usually enjoy history classes, but I literally hate this class. We usually watch some old movie that puts you to sleep for half of the class. Then once he starts lecturing, he goes onto 20 different topics in 2 minutes and makes zero sense.

Dr. DeMichelle, don't get me wrong, is an extremely nice guy and means very well but he is a very difficult grader so you most likely will not get an A... All you do is watch movies and then taking an exam on them however the exam consists of far more specific questions than you would expect... And he is a very critical grader for papers as well...

Comment:
Dr. DeMichelle is a very friendly teacher and wants to see all his students succeed. However, he does not allow for alot of discussion in Hist 219. It is an class where you watch video segments of historical topics and take tests based on those videos. Critical grader, so you probably wont get an A but you also probably won't fail.

I took his class because it was recommended highly. I couldn't have been more disappointed. He clearly favors history majors. He picks 5 people whose opinions he likes, and no one else matters. I never received a paper grade below 90 in my life. He gave me an 80. English teachers said it was a great paper. He tore through the page while grading it.

A really nice guy. Knows his stuff thoroughly and wants his students to do well. A little business-like, with a few pleasant bursts of humor. Comrades, he's a great teacher!

Have taken both classes and the last guy to write a comment is completely wrong...I have had DeMichele for 5 classes and I can't tell you what affiliation he is. Very unbiased when discussing the more recent presidencies. Bored out of your brain in class but its easy grade

Most of the class is watching boring videos with a little info added by the prof. 2 tests, midterm and final, and 1 huge project worth 60% of your grade. Not a bad class, but not a great class. Not much homework except for working on the project throughout the semester.
