He earned his Phd at Michigan, usually considered a reputable university.

William J. Hamblin (Ph.D., University of Michigan) is Associate Professor of History at Brigham Young University.

He's a very sharp guy; knows his stuff and is pretty demanding of his students. Has the funniest, driest sense of humor of any professor I had.

Agreed. I usually insist on never repeating a class from the same professor, so as to get the benefits of a fairly diverse group of instructors. Dr. Hamblin is the one exception I had to my rule. I took History 201 (World History to 1500) and History 238 (Ancient Near Eastern History) from him.

When did you take a class from him, Tex? What class?

It's been long enough that I don't remember names and numbers anymore, but I took his Crusades class, and an Ancient Near Eastern History class, maybe 238.

Yeah, that's 238. He still teaches both. I nearly took the crusades class, myself.
