Welcome Spring 2008

Welcome to HIS 241, the History of Russia I. I'm Charlie Evans, your instructor for the course, and this is about the fourth year now that I've had my Russian history course sequence online. This semester we will be trying something new by using a blog to support our experience with Russian history. It should be fun!

I'm Peter Dasso, and this is my brief introduction on the course blog. I have Russian heritage in my family and I'm trying to get more in touch with that, as well as tie Russia in with my passion for medieval history.

So this is the blog, huh? Looks good. I thought it might be hard to figure out, but it looks pretty simple and self-explanatory.

I'm Kailie Smith, from HIS 241.

Hello, my name is Randa and I didn't become truly interested in Russia until became a World History teacher. Only then did I realize how much I didn't know.

I know you are not accepting welcome posts anymore but I thought I would start off with this to catch up on my posting. Hi, I'm Prakesha! I did not anticipate how slow my reading would be but I think with my interest in Russian History, I will be able to do it!
