automotive history with dr borg is the only one i know of. it is easy assuming you have a good amount of free time to read articles and write about them. attendance is pretty mandatory if i recall corrrectly.

yep, unless the class has changed in the past year. also, tests consist of writing about topics in the readings. really it is a lot of reading and writing, not so much a class that tests your memorizing ability.

He moved 326 to the spring so he could teach 339. I emailed him to figure out what 339 is.

ISAT 310 deals with thermodynamic cycles, pistons, diesel engines and otto engines. i wouldn't take it as an elective though

This is what Dr. Borg said
It is a new course entitled Industrial Archaeology of the Upper South. It will focus on the industrial and commercial sites in this area of Virginia as well as the Upper South states in general in comparison to the more well documented industrialization of the Northeast and Midwest. It will be a very heavy reading and project load (it was supposed to be listed as a 400-level course and will be so if it becomes a permanent course offering.) I am pitching it at junior/senior Public History and Anth/Archaeology students.

I took Dr. Borg for GHIST 225. I didn't like the class much at all considering I got a C- in it. Gotta read though if you're gonna have him, like everyone else has said.
