I like history but this class was the worst experience of my college career thus far. Minter not only requires you buy her document reader but also a slew of other novels. A few of the required readings are very hard to find, to the point of if WKU's store doesn't have it you're screwed. Of course she doesn't seem to care about the difficulty of obtaining the material as she turns complaints away immediately. There are also several out of class movie viewings that are required. These are at least two hours a pop and though there are multiple viewings for each people like me who work full time just can't make it. Besides, the class is suppose to be 50 minutes. Her essays and papers are also graded harshly and with a slight hint of bias. I've written papers for the same way for 7 years now and this was the first time I've ever had my style, and apparently intelligence, ripped apart. Her teaching style is also sub par with 'learning layers' which requires leap frogging through time to get all the information. It's the most confusing and uninformative method I've ever seen. If this name pops up on you schedule, drop immediately.
