- **2020-06** — AROL 235XX : Daily Life in Ancient Egypt The class has 4 small quizzes in class, a midterm, and a final paper (4 pages). The professor is really understanding and chill, an expert on the subject. Attendance and participation is 20% so don't think about skipping. Overall interesting course.
