It is difficult only because of the instructor.This is one of the most frustrating classes I have ever taken. The text book is awful, very difficult to understand because it jumps around and leaves you hanging without fully explaining the facts.It is more like somebody's ideas instead of history and they don't like Kentuckians. The teacher is another story. She is an english major and doesn't want to teach Kentucky History, therefore she gives you tons of writing assignments, some of which are not even related to KY History. Weekly home work is written. The exams are all writing. Her in class lectures consist of her reading parts of the text book and part of some information she found from other sources. She reads so fast it is impossible to take notes and the students don't have access to the extra information. The worst part is that Kentucky History is not taught; If I didn't know better I would think I was in a Political Science class of early America. most of the class period consists of information that does not even pertain to Kentucky. I usually don't talk about classes or instructors, but I would never recommend this class to anyone. And I was so looking forward to it: Very disappointing.
