Very interesting, enthusiastic, and down-to-earth teacher. Lots of reading on the subject, which I did. However, her tests were difficult because of the way they were worded (some of the multiple-choice answers could have gone either way). The essays were a breeze for me.

heres the run down: class is mostly lecture, if u dont attend make sure you read. The book is manditory, half your info is coming out of it. Tests are fair as long as u do the reading. the discussion q's are semi-hard, no one gets full credit and she doesnt expect them to. Lynn is intresting and opinionated. she knows her stuff and is passionate.

I was 1 of maybe 5 guys in this class and I didn't feel awkward about it at all. Subjects like birth control were easy to talk about. If you simply keep an open mind then this class will be enjoyable like any other class. But if you remain wrapped in your own beliefs you will hate it... and should probably go work for a church or something.

I have taken two of her classes, I especially enjoyed the US history course. What I enjoy about Lynn is she takes it to the next level, she expects you to be analytical. If you take one of her classes you will learn new skills that will be helpful in other classes. Sierra College is lucky to have her. This class will prepare you for a University.
