Review #1 / Course: HIST 7956 / Instructor: CULBERT D
Dr. Culbert is an awesome professor! At first, he can seem a bit intimidating due to his "dry" personality and sense of humor, but he is very enjoyable once you get to know him. 7956 was the best of the three reading seminars (7951, 7952, and 7956), and the variety of readings went beyond typical histeriography. Only caveats: be prepared to write a 3-5 page paper each week and lead a discussion once alone and twice with the other classmates. Still, it's a fun ride.

Review #2 / Course: HIST 4065 / Instructor: CULBERT D
I really liked this class a lot but I know others didn't. Dr. Culbert can be off-putting but he knows a lot and is always available outside of class. You really have to read the books & write the essays. The exams are divided; he gives an essay to write at home and then short ID's and short essay during the exam time. Hard to take notes though, he tends to jump around on topics, but write down what he puts on the board, it will be a short ID

Review #3 / Course: HIST 4065 / Instructor: CULBERT D
Culbert was the MOST boring teacher I've had at LSU but he's very easy. I had a very strong A the entire semester but the final consisted of VERY minor terms from the readings so I finished with a B.

Dr. Culbert is a very interesting man, with a dry sense of humor. He is a great lecturer and FAIR teacher. I got a 70 on the first test then 99's on the other 2. Final is worth 50%! Take him!

Culbert was the most boring teacher I have ever had in my whole entire life. History doesn't necessarily have to be boring. DO NOT TAKE CULBERT!

Review #9 / Course: HIST 2057 / Instructor: CULBERT D
Dr. Culbert is a great professor. He is very straightforward and gives you more than enough information to prepare for the test. On the first day of class he told us the essay question of our first test. It doesn't get any better than that!!!!

Dr. Culbert is a good teacher. He is very knowlegeable, but I don't like the fact that the emphasis of the class is novels, not a history text.

If you can, get the old tests from someone else. You never have to go to class. It has been the same exact essays for the last 7 years.

He's a little dull at times, but his exams are absolute cake-- you don't even have to use complete sentences.

90% of the test is the books you have to read, and they are pretty good, the teacher's lectures are interesting but not imperative to passing the class
