Quarter: Winter 2016
Grade: A
March 27, 2016

If you want to take a writing two course while learning interesting information, I highly recommend Professor Smoak. The first half of the class is about analyzing biblical passages and how they relate to the city of Jerusalem. The second half of the class is about the important religious sites within the city. The overall theme of the class is about sacred space and how it affects religious practitioners. There are two papers, a midterm, and a final. The midterm and final are each worth 10% and they are pretty easy, the professor is very clear on what he wants you to study for the tests. The two papers comprise 70% of the final grade combined and the grades are based on your TA. If you go to TA office hours and do what they say, you will get a pretty good grade. The professor also spends a couple minutes at the beginning of each lecture going over what he wants on the essays. He is also extremely helpful with guidance on the papers.

Professor Smoak is a great lecturer who is very knowledgeable in his field. The lectures are comprised of slides and he will spend enough time on slides for you to write information down. His lectures are very organized.
