Welcome to the brave new world of hybrid history! Hope you like reading, writing, and thinking, because we'll be doing a lot of those things. Survivors of this class report that it was more work than they expected, but also more enjoyable and rewarding. We'll see what you think about that (and about lots of other things).

This class involves doing things together in the classroom once a weekly, as well as doing things individually online on a weekly basis.
