This is a great filler class. I took Proffesor O'Brien's class twice and he is a fair grader. There are 2 weekends that assignments are due. Two essays, final, midterm, two extra credits. I made an A- in both his classes. You do not have a bunch of work all semester.
Awful
This class is very informative and lecture heavy. You will really have to stay on top of it. Book is expensive and the more you read it, the more you will realize that the entire paragraphs are basically copied and pasted into diff chapters only. He gives 4 assignments, 12 lectures, and 300 pages of reading. He's honestly fine, but class is an absolute sham.

Prof. Thomas' lectures were very interesting. I just didn't like how we had another prof. I just wish he was the only one who taught this class. His exams are pretty easy! You just really have to study. There is only one museum paper and three exams. I'd honestly take him again!
Awful
Do NOT take Professor O'Brien!! I had him for a minimster and it was the worst decision I've ever made. I am a straight A student and ended up with a failing grade in this class. He is very rude if you have to email him. There is lots of readings and he grades very harshly. You never know how he will grade you. I did great on my first essay and then the last three I got horrible grades.
