ANTH 1010

Handler is a good guy — openly liberal and controversial, but very thought-provoking. Class is graded by half-hour handwritten quizzes and a final. Drop the lowest two quizzes. Usually, quizzes consist of comparing quotes from similar readings, but the final is a little more challenging. It's a class where you definitely don't have to go to lecture because he posts the reading notes, and they will definitely suffice for the quizzes, but I'd recommend it if you're not going to do the readings. They serve as a solid supplement, but often consist of Handler ranting and telling stories for 50 minutes. An A is very achievable, but you do need a 95. Recommend for the living systems requirement; it's one of those classes everyone deserves to experience at least once.
