Comment:
I wasn't that interested in colonial history before taking this class. Professor Edelson was a decent lecturer, what was better was the texts used. They were shockingly interesting for such a dull subject. Grade is 2 papers written on primary documents and a midterm and a final.

Comment:
Prof. Edelson is as intelligent as he is competent. He's an excellent teacher and perhaps an even better researcher. He's very helpful; always made himself available for questions or problems. Provides excellent study guides for the midterm and final. It isn't totally necessary to do the readings, but it certainly helps during discussions.

Comment:
Edelson is a great professor. He's very helpful, very enthusiastic, and never mean. Even when he knows you haven't read for the day. Also, compared to most history professors, he's a cutie. Don't write any of your papers on the Carolinas though unless you're 100% sure of every fact you include. He's an expert.

Comment:
Although sometimes he wears suit jackets that are too big for him, Prof. Edelson is a great professor. He's such a nice guy, always willing to help students, and very friendly and intelligent. You go S. MAx.

The lectures are boring, but the class itself is good. i hate history- and I really learned alot. The class can be easy or hard depending on the TA you get-- but the final and midterm are incredibly easy

good lecturer but lots of details and can put you to sleep. you have to go to class becasue there's no other way to get his detailed notes- he doesn't put them online. the midterm and final is hard- memorize lots of id's & essay questions with detail. only 2 major papers and a midterm and final but they are serious. class is boring
