I took HIUS 221, and at first, the class seemed intimidating, but each lecture was well organized, followed the syllabus, and provided detailed information regarding important parts of American History before 1877. Dr. Bauer only gave us two exams: a midterm and a final, both of which she provided a study guide for. While some may find her method unconventional due to the exams only having five questions that cover term id's and primary source id's discussed in lectures, while the study guides have roughly 60 terms/primary sources that must be studied, her method ensures that every student is learning all of the course material, which is her job! If you are looking for a course to take where you don't have to apply yourself, then her course is not for you...or rather, no course is for you. Best of luck :)

Helpful as a tutor. As long as you are not an iPad child that can't take 40 minutes without your phone, you will enjoy his lectures. Clear, coherent and enthusiastic. Good at his job

I had Julie Fairbanks as my anthropology professor back in the 20-teens; I was actually the first student at Coe to graduate with an Anthropology minor. I ended up on this site while procrastinating in the last week or so of my PhD thesis (I'm in my thirties now and haven't changed a bit), and thought I'd share my experience. Julie wasn't my advisor when I was at Coe, but she felt like a graduate supervisor. I was the only anthropology student, so most of my upper-level classes were one-to-one, and she was the one who first encouraged me to present my original research at the CSAS conference in St. Louis. As a kid who was used to being an academic troublemaker--I actually graduated high school late--her guidance laid so much of the groundwork for my future academic career. She was encouraging and she believed in me, and now, over a decade later, I'm a couple months away from my PhD at one of the leading universities in the world. I ended up pursuing Creative Writing, but loads of my work is based in anthropology and I still use the methods I learned way back when. Thanks, Julie, for everything.
