Exams are difficult very few multiple choice, mostly short and long answer essays

this course should be relabeled as "history of geography" because that is what you will be learning rather than ideas and skills.

Krabacher does not like to give out A's, literally everybody in the class got a B.

The exams are DIFFICULT. only a few multiple choice and many many short answer questions, so be prepared to write and write a lot in a short time frame.
