Comment:
She is an EXTREMELY nice prof, w/ a phd from Harvard, that LOVES the material. Just read the assignments, make sure you know what she tells you to know. When it comes to test time, just write what she told you. One of the most straight forward classes at Tufts. Read the material, attend each class, take half decent notes and it is an easy A.

Comment:
She is very nice but very old. You must follow her explanations of the text for her tests and you should write down anything word in the text that she references or explains. Her class is fairly easy, but her tests look for strict answers and she does not give double jeopardy.

Comment:
Merzlak is SO nice. She is a really sweet old lady. That said, she is very rigid structurally and alternate interpretations of the text bewilder her. She doesn't seem to know anything about it other than what is written in our edition of the Metamorphoses. She knows that REALLY well though.

Comment:
Boring, and tests require very specific information. The professor barely enriches the text, so you could read them on your own, and have almost the same intellectual experience without the agonizing boredom.

Comment:
You will definately brush up on your Latin grammar. Merzlak seems to be somewhat distant at first, but if you talk to her for a few minutes, totally different story. Nice lady and knows her Latin.

Comment:
I have had Merzlak for several courses including Classics of Greece, Latin 22 and her summer course on Ovid. She is much better in Latin and the Ovid course. The Ovid course in the summer is great!

If you get to know her, she is really nice and helpful. Her teaching style is not like the people in English, but give her a chance, you can get a lot out of the course. She really wants you to feel the literature. She has published 3 books of poetry!

Comment:
she's pretty old and kind of boring, but she loves the material, which is pretty much what makes classics of greece bearable. that and the fact that it's incredibly easy if you do the reading and show up to class (most of the idiots in the class don't).
