Pretty good lecturer. Left a section in the middle of each class to take questions and answer them.

Comment:

A genuinely nice fellow. His American History to 1877 was geared as much towards and understanding of antebellum America as the practice of historical analysis. Not difficult if you take his class seriously. Had a nice semester and am now considering a history concentration.

Comment:

An absolutely wonderful lecturer, advisor, and human being (though I must admit he's not a great section leader). The course (North American Environmental History) was the best I've ever taken, and I won't miss out on another Jacoby-taught course.

Comment:

This class was a freshmen seminar on the California Gold Rush. He said about 30 words the whole discussion. I have heard he is a wonderful lecturer, but he seemed like an extremely dull person in this freshmen seminar. I would like to take his larger lecture classes, but this one kind of sucked.

Comment:

Jacoby is one of the best professors that I have had at Brown. He has dull and shinnning moments, never ordinary. Good guy, recommend him.
