Comment:
Really nice guy but get ready to be bogged down by tons of assignments piling up at the end of the semester. I don't blame him entirely for poor-quality online class because of his age, and I would bet the class would be much more enjoyable in person because of his expertise level, but there were many moments that were very frustrating.

Hildreth is knowledgeable about the subject, but sometimes his lectures are long and he uses a lot of super old videos to teach us. Nevertheless, he's nice and the class is pretty easy.

Comment:
An INCREDIBLY boring teacher. He pretty much had the students teach the entire class through "class reports." Be sure to do the listening and to study though, because his tests were ridiculous. Disproportionately hard for such an easy class. Everyone had to stay longer than 2 hours for his final..

I am a student from many many years ago, and Dr Hildreth was an amazing professor with a diverse breadth of knowledge about music history and culture. Current students - figure out a way to make this coursework matter to you - he is a goldmine of information!

Boring and couldn't hear anything he was saying. Didn't read the book or study at all and got good grades on the tests. Pointless class.

Boring class. Pointless. Never got anything out of it. But he rounds up everything so I got an A anyways... nice class to take with other hard classes and you knock off two perspectives.

I'm sure he was a great teacher at one point, but his age may be showing a little.

the class easy but IT WAS A JOKE. half of the class did not know what he was talking about. he always got off topic and would teach us latin roots....we are in MUSIC for heaven's sake. he sucks at grading quizzes. gave us a study guide that was wrong. when you point it out to him he denies it. BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment:
too bad all the students in the class seem so uninterested in the subject. You can tell that he is full of knowledge, but he is not a very "fun" professor - i think that he's just tired of teaching uninterested kids about he's favourite subject. Only multiple choice exam/quizzes.

Comment:
Overall an easy class, also counts for a cross cultural requirement. His voice is soothing, so there was a tendency for many students to drift off in the middle of lecture. Nonetheless, he is a good professor, and the class had several interesting topics. I would most definitely recommend this class!

Easiest. Class. Ever. He's such a geniunely nice man, with a real appriciation for the subject matter. African American Music didn't have any emphasis on theory, making it a great class for non music majors. It may have been slightly TOO easy, I never studied for a single test.

The easiest class I have ever taken. EVER! He doesn't exactly make things exciting, but he's such a nice, quiet guy with a genuine appreciation for music.
