Robert Stolz
Introduces the study of history intended for first- or second-year students. Seminars involve reading, discussing, and writing about different historical topics and periods, and emphasize the enhancement of critical and communication skills. Several seminars are offered each term. Not more than two Introductory Seminars may be counted toward the major in history.
"Difficulty 5Hotness 1 (I wish I can give 0)This class satisfies two area requirements of CAS, history and second-year writing. But please be advised, if you are a first-year and not good at writing and not yet used to English reading, DO NOT take this class. The class is about history on the surface, but it actually requires a lot of readings on philosophy. The instructions on writing the essay was confusing, but the professor was always willing to address your questions. He was almost available in his office everyday, but he did not reply to any of my emails :)"
"Difficulty 5, Hotness 1。Stolz的课是我在UVa上过最intellectually challenge的课，非常推荐对历史，尤其是东亚/日本历史和哲学感兴趣的同学上"
