Comment:

Let me be clear: Professor Fasolt was the best professor I had at Chicago. I had him for European Civ and The Reformation in Germany. He can elucidate extremely complex topics with a single, illuminating anecdote. He does not accept slacking (in a loving, German way) but he helped me a lot on my thesis although I wasn't even in his department.

Excellent. The best professor I've had yet. He's great at leading discussion and has an incredible understanding of history. He's really made me want to be a historian.

Comment:

I am a mathematics major but I love history. His European Civilization class lived up to my expectations and I was really bummed out when I learned he wouldn't be teaching a second quarter. He is by far the best teacher I've had outside my concentration, and would highly recommend him to anyone else.

Interesting texts, but discussions are often lacking because he seems not to want to inject anything into it.

Comment:

Fasolt is infurating. His idea of leading a discussion is talking back and forth with one or two kids. His idea of clarity is assigning a paper of 4 to 15 pages, and giving no direction whatsoever. In class and out you'll regret this one all term.
