Professor Fisher is very passionate about the subject which makes his lectures a little better. 4 exams (including the final, no midterm) and drops the lowest grade. NO FINAL PAPER! You can do up to 6 points extra credit for EACH exam. STUDY THE GLOSSARY ITEMS, IT WILL LITERALLY MAKE THE TESTS 10X EASIER!!!!!

So I think a lot of people are tough on him but hes cool. Lectures are boring but if you pay attention to what he says and the powerpoint notes, you'll get a solid idea of what will be on the exam. make sure to read your textbook tho. about half the exams are based on info in them

Dr. Fisher doesn't have his ppt available on BB or anywhere, you will need to come to class. 2 textbooks are used in this class. Just gotta take notes and master the glossary. He also gives hints for the exams. 3 non-cumulative tests, lowest one is dropped. Then lastly, non-cumulative final.

Dr. Fisher is hands down my favorite professor and could very well be my favorite person. He is so caring and hilarious that it makes me look forward to class. I've never had a professor so invested in my personal success before. Passing this class is as easy as showing up and reading a couple good books

Professor Fisher is a wonderful teacher. You can tell how passionate about anthropology he is. His classes can be easy to fall asleep in though, and can be quite boring. He does his best though and is always cracking jokes or trying to liven things up. There are only 4 exams and he drops the lowest of the first 3. He does offer extra credit.

He does not use blackboard and does not share powerpoints or class notes. In order to get by in this class, you must attend every class and spend $200 on two different textbooks. He has four exams, fifty questions each. Rather than telling you what to study, he tells you a few terms that can be omitted. I would not recommend this class to anybody.
