(Taken - Fall 2014) I was so happy to have a professor like him in my first semester of college. He is hilarious. He's fun to work with. We did research, which was super fun! (My class got to do research on sex work comparing different groups of people)

Prof Curtis is so funny! His class is very much laid back but be prepared to do a paper every week the paper topics are not hard or lengthy (500 words) just make sure you do them. No exams and he is active in his field and encourages his students to join him in research.

Best teacher I've had so far. He's very funny, you just have to show up to class and do the essays he gives for homework. There aren't many, it's based on readings he put on e-reserve and it's just your opinion about it. You don't need a textbook for him. Super easy going and friendly. He has some pretty interesting life stories also.

Awesome Guy. Kiss up to him and you will get an easy A+. He doesn't really care about the work. He cares about attendance though, he makes fun of people who don't show up. He just tells stories all day in class and doesn't put stress on people AT ALL. Take him for ANY CLASS he teaches. He will make you love Anthropology and can even get you a job.

He is the def the coolest and chillest teacher in the world! He has many research opportunities and he really believes you learn by doing instead of just reading and studying! It was a very fun class and we got out early almost every time.

Prof. Curtis is one of the my favorite professors I have taken thus far. I took his class 8:15 in the morning, but it was the best. He is very wise. No textbook, no mid-term or final...just a 1 pg paper every week pertaining to drug/alcohol, and a 6-8 final paper. He is one of the funniest people I have ever met, you will def enjoy his class.
