Great Books 191

<p>does cameron grade the essays, or does each individual GSI grade their own section's student's essays?</p>

<p>are essays evaluated toughly, ripped apart viciously, etc...?</p>

<p>is there a course site for great books 191 fall 2005?</p>

<p>I'm sure the TA's grade, because there are hundreds of people in the lecture.</p>

<p>took gb 191 last year, cameron doesn't grade anything (too busy researching spiders), grading really depends on which GSI you have, some are really laid-back and nice, while others expect graduate-level writing.</p>

<p>calloftheblade, do you know any of the names of the better GSI's? How was yours?</p>

<p>Also, what is the typical day like for a discussion class? So far I had the notion that it was like a high school class (small size, more involvement, etc.) What exactly happens during these classes?</p>

<p>You definitely want Ulrike Nichols (might be misspelled), she definitely cares about the students and leads fun, interesting discussions.</p>

<p>does anyone have the course syllabus?</p>
