really good guy, he enjoys what he's doing and truly wants you to understand. some of the class info is dry, but he uses art and music to keep it interesting. nice guy, very understanding and flexible.

Overall he is a REALLY nice guy and even though some lectures are boring he grades his test and papers very easily (he gives you the benefit of the doubt)

Really nice guy, always willing to help or clarify. A ton of reading, but he is a great guy, I would recommend him.

He's a really nice guy. Easy to talk to and always asks for questions (and actually answers them). Good teacher!

I liked him a lot, the class was easy for me. The tests are all essay tests, but he tells you what the questions will be.

Very good lectures. Knows his fields of history and always is creatively putting music and art to the course work along with other texts to broaden horizions. Overall great professor classes arent bad and tests are same as the rest of the dept. profs.

Nice guy, but an airhead. He goes off on tangents all the time and he plays WIERD british rock music from the 70s and 80s.

One of the best professors in a bad department...note taking from him can be difficult but he gives outlines. Tests are definitely doable. Dry material but he does his best to make lectures tolerable.

He is a very good teacher who knows what he's talking about.

Really nice guy. His tests were all essay and pretty easy. You don't really need to pay attention in class, but it is good to go!

He is a great teacher. Lectures can be a bit tough to listen to but hey its history. Tests are really easy, he really listens to your questions, and offers some extra credit. Not hard at all. GREAT TEACHER.

He's a nice guy, a fairly good professor. Kind of boring, plays odd music, and tends to think he's funnier then he really is... Lectures boring, tests easy, not quite the pain that some HIST profs are... take him!

Very nice prof, and is always willing to answer your questions, tests arent too bad even though they are essay. Lectures may be a little boring sometimes but he makes it fun with art and music. very awesome prof though

He is really nice, and gets really enthusiastic about the material. If you every have any questions you can always go to him for help! Not a bad choice for a teacher.

He's a really good professor. He knows what he's talking about and he's helpful. I definitely recommend taking him. Tests are written but aren't bad, he gives you the questions to study.

Django Reinhart and Lenny Riefensthal. After 3 years I still remember those 2 names from Nazi History class. I dont remember anything from my other class that semester.

I liked him as a professor. He made it understandable.

Very nice prof. Always willing to help and very understandable. Tests are all essay and theres alot of reading, a given w/ history. All in all I would take him again, learned alot and didn't kill ya to take him.

Very helpful and accessible. Cares about students and material. Reading load can be heavy, but classes overall border on easy because of the format of the class. Highly recommended.

One of the better history profs. Class is boring as hell, but go. Tests are a pain in the ass, but if you can write a lot and appear to know what you are talking about, an A is not impossible. Highly Recomended!

He really knows his history. There is a lot of reading and the tests are essay but overall it is a good class and I learned a lot.

Some of the reading texts tend to be dull since the class is about research methods. Overall great teacher, helps you if you have any questions. No tests in this class, just essays and papers.

He's awesome! I really enjoyed his presentations in class how he got into the music/art side of history. He did an excellent job at making it all easy to relate to in everyday language, and i liked how he gave out the essay topics and terms a week before the exam so you know exactly what he's expecting unlike other profs!

Took it as a summer class. But a really nice guy who is willing to help you out. History can get long at times but he tried to make it as interesting as possible. Hands out good test review...would definitely take again.

Was a great professor if you need an A take him,Gives exam questions in advance and you have like ten topics to choose from,show up for class and just try to perticipate and you good.A lot of reading though but just show him you know what you are talking about.Would take him again.

He is a great teacher. Very helpful and very nice. Focuses on the humanities alittle too much, but he'll get into the political/military stuff too. Really knowledgable in subject material. I would highly recommend him.

As long as you take notes and listen in class this isnt that hard. He gives you the test questions a week ahead of time so you can prepare for the tests. I highly recommend taking this class with Lindaman. He is very smart and knows what he is talking about!

hes a decent professor for the western civ series. his lectures are scripted at times but he gives you exam essay questions/terms a week ahead of time and tells you how to write them.

Absolutely awesome teacher., take him if you have the chance. He's probably the smartest person I've ever met. He cares a ton about the subject, and also about the students taking his class. He gives you the test questions a week in advance which is awesome. The nicest and best teacher I've had at WSU.

He is a very nice guy, and pretty easy to understand. I felt that he expected way to much out of his students (assigning 60-100 pages per night) but as long as you read something and had a point or idea to discuss in class, it was okay.

I love Professor Lindaman! I only had him for Orientation, but it was probably one of my best classes ever! I will definately take him in a another class if I get a chance. Great guy!

Knowledgeable professor and very nice. Lots to read and the essay tests are challenging but you will learn a lot from the class.

A great summer class. I put quite a bit of work into the readings and learned a ton! Very fascinating topics. Lindaman does a great job in setting up the material. I would definitely recommend.

He lectures, you take notes. Essay test.

Lindaman is my favorite professor. I was skeptical of this course, as history isn't my forte. He lectures, you take notes. He's very thorough & knowledgeable about his lessons. He enjoys asking & answering questions, as well. We have 4 different essay tests for which we get the terms list and essay prompts a week ahead of time. I'm getting an A!

He's one of the best history teachers I've had. The class involves a lot of reading and lecture, but the required reading isn't dry. He's also very helpful and informed, his class drove me to a history minor just because it was fun and interesting.

Way too much work for a 100 level university study. Have to read the textbook, take a ton of notes, and watch powerpoints on d2l. 3 essays that are practically impossible to get full credit on and 3 multiple choice tests with ridiculous in depth questions. Make sure to read the book the semester before so you can get an A.

Expected way too much. A lot of reading, no homework, no review, barely passed the tests.

Great class and super nice professor. He is very clear on expectations.

He knows his stuff and gives you the test questions in advance, unfortunately he doesn't teach on them you have to look them up yourself, his teaching is unrelated.

Dr. Lindaman is the way to go! He's a wonderful teacher and a kind man.

Great professor for Western Civilization. Do the work and you will learn a ton.

Towards the beginning of the class, it seemed to me that he focused on art a bit too much. I'm not saying that's bad, as art is a great way to see how the people felt during a period in history, but I felt it overshadowed some of the bigger events. It did get better as it went on, and overall I felt it was an enjoyable class with a great professor!

This was a very good course for humanities credit. The professor is interesting and uses music and art to show historical context. Do the work and you will learn a ton.

Dr. Lindaman seems to connect well with his students. This class had a good balance of lecture, homework and group work. Manageable amount of reading and very good lectures that are informative and hold your attention. I would definitely take another class with him.

Dr. Lindaman is a wonderful professor who states large historical concepts concisely. Class if engaging with a mix of lecture/small group discussion and music/art references. He is accessible easily in office hours. If you pay attention and go to class you will do just fine.

Professor Lindaman is very knowledgeable. It was not difficult to stay engaged in his class. It was interesting bringing life and history to the environmental field through the lens of public/national parks. (Not many courses at WSU are able to have this interdisciplinary approach as wel). Expectations are laid out clearly and are not hard to meet.

If you put in the work and show up to class it is easy to be successful. I did not have much previous knowledge in history but this was a good first class to explore the field. I would take another one of his classes again!

Loved him. He provides you with everything you need to pass the tests. They are worth a lot of points but he gives you a good review guide so you can practice your answers. He is an awesome, interesting teacher. His tests are very easy if you take advantage of the review sheet. WATCH THE MODULES!!! he gives away test questions in them.

Lindaman's a great professor. He's laid back but very knowledgable. The way he lectures jumps around a bit between time periods and location, but it helps see the connection importance of history. Love the connection to modern art and music he uses to explain historical events. Take him if you are interested in history and want to learn more.

He is a really nice guy. Some of his grading criteria is unclear but otherwise he is awesome.

He genuinely cares about his students doing well. He takes the time to learn your name and if you take more classes with him as I did you will really get to know him and his quirks which is rewarding. But, he will also get to know you which often times can lead to him giving you the benefit of the doubt in most cases. He will go to bat for you.

Professor Lindaman was the best. He genuinely cares about his students and he is always willing and available to help. There is a lot of reading but he basically tells you what will be on tests. Very smart guy too. Would take again!

Very nice, very cool, very easy course. He is very relaxed and loves history and just having casual discussions with students. If you email him, you will either get a response the day it was sent or will never answer, so ask in class as much as possible. Very good advice on what classes and professors to take and avoid. Overall really great guy!

This course is very well organized and places an emphasis on thinking skills during the class time. The traditional lecture part is online and done on your own time. Do the different parts of the class and you will be well prepared for the tests. You also get many points for the in class history thinking activities. Strongly recommend.

Loved this class! If you just do the readings and all the assignments you should be able to get an A. There is a lot of reading (just like all history classes) but all you have to do is do it and you'll be fine. Professor Lindaman gives great feedback and you can tell he is extremely knowledgable about what he is teaching. Highly recommend!

This is a great online class option. The reading material is very interesting. Professor allows you to correct assignments so full credit can be gained pretty easily. An A is very obtainable as long as you simply do the assignments.

Took this for general education credit. It is a well organized class once you get into the pattern of the set up. The course materials are interesting and the professor wants you to show you have learned something and therefore will even allow re-submitted work to reach a higher grade.

I loved the course material in this environmental history course. I took it online. The professor includes a clear lecture tutorial which is a great overview of the course and explains what needs to be done. If you are willing to stay on task and complete the weekly work an A can be had.

Professor Lindaman is awesome! He grades pretty easily as long as you simply do the homework. Kind of like a contract grading class! The readings are interesting and you can tell he is extremely knowledgable about what he is teaching. Great class!!

People don't realize that all you have to do to receive an A in this class is to just do the work! There is a lot of reading but they are all interesting and doable. Lindaman is very knowledgable which makes this class fun and intriguing. Just do the assignments each week and you'll be good! Online course is the same!

Lindaman is a GREAT professor. This was personally a very difficult course for me but he is always willing to discuss the material with you to help you understand. As long as you participate in the group discussions and do the readings, you'll do fine.

The class was very well organized and we were given credit for lecture modules and assignments that helped prepare for the tests. Do watch the course overview tutorial as it helps reveal the course organization. The four outside books we read were very interesting. Would highly recommend!

History of the American West was a great class. Lots of good course material. The professor was understanding in spacing out the reading assignments.

Professor Lindaman was great!!! If you want an A in this class you just have to do each assignment (they are quite simple). Anyone struggling with this class probably didn't watch his lectures or syllabus video that explains the course and due dates. Really nice and knowledgable guy. Will be taking more classes from him!!!

Outlines course expectations clearly on D2L. Even has extra credit. Was also very understanding with late work. Overall a very chill class and although there is more reading, they were all extremely interesting and I am glad I read them. Great prof.

Very knowledgeable guy. Class is easy to follow and the readings are super informative. Fun class.

I took this class on-line. The format was easy to follow and the professor was helpful with questions. The readings were very interesting and there was a fun nature project as part of the grade.

This class had a lot of points based on participation in class and short writing reflections. These prepared you for the essay on the test. The class material was interesting and the professor was very helpful.

Loved this class! All of the readings were very interesting. Easy to get an A as long as you complete your work. Professor was accessible outside of class and provided great feedback.

Professor provides great feedback and is accessible outside of class time. Lecture/readings are extremely interesting. I thought the reading were unique and taught me a lot. Easy class as long as you do the assignments.

Extremely understanding and knowledgable professor. Class was manageable and fun. My favorite history class I've taken yet. Highly recommend.

Great online class option! Assignments were extremely easy to follow and the professor is easy to reach/is understanding when tech issues happen. Loved all of the readings assigned because they were actually interesting unlike most history classes. Highly recommend!

Professor Lindaman was very knowledgable and passionate about this class! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a history credit. Online class was easy to follow. Can easily get an A if you keep up with the assignments.

This class is a great option for anyone looking for a history class that is equally fascinating as it is fun! Loved all the readings, I wish more classes were like this!

This online course was very easy to follow and Professor was always attentive to questions. Don't need to be a history whiz to do well in this class. Cant recommend enough!

Great online history class option. Loved this class. Professor Lindaman is passionate about the subject, cares about his students wellbeing, and was great to learn from.

Easy to get an A once you do the assignments. The syllabus is very clear and the professor is always willing to help. Great class.

Great class, loved this professor. Assignments are very doable and easy to complete. Professor is not a tough grader and is happy to help.

LOVED this class! The class topic itself was super intersting but the readings professor lindaman assigned were very informative and nice to read. Professor is avaible outside of class, will for sure be taking another class with him.

Great class! Readings were easy and informative. Cool class topic, you could tell Professor Lindaman was passionate about the subject and wanted students to be as well. Take this class if you can!!!

Syllabus is very clear and easy to follow. Great online class option if you want to get a good grade and learn a lot. Professor Lindaman was helpful and answered questions when they came up. Would take again.

Really enjoyed this class and professor Lindaman. Assignments are extremely doable and readings were informative. Would take it again if I could.

PROF LINDAMANS ARE THE BEST!!!!!!

My favorite class/professor so far!!! Tests were exactly like the assignments and Professor Lindaman was always available to help.

Overall great class. Learned a lot of new things but never felt like it was too much to keep up with. 10/10 online class experience.

Easy class to keep up with. Professor Lindaman was easy to talk to and happy to help. Great option for a 100 level elective.

Easy class! Got an A by keeping up with the readings and doing the assignments. Usually have one reading assignment per class period, super doable and easy.

Cool readings and class topic. Easy assignments. Felt like I learned a lot and this ended up being one of my favorite classes I've taken at Winona State!

Sweet class! Highly reccommend. Assignments were very doable and readings were unique/kept you wanting more! Never thought I'd get this excited about a history class. Prof was also very knowledgable about the topic and helped with any questions.

very easy class two assignments a week. very reading heavy two books required. he does not respond well to emails but overall good easy credit

Dr. Lindaman runs a well-organized course. The readings are interesting, and his lectures are helpful. Doing the assignments and using resources like unstuck ai can help you succeed in this class.

There are two graded assignments every week and the readings are interesting. The professor was very understanding and helpful when I fell behind due to an emergency. Would strongly recommend.

Took this class online, and it was very easy. He is a super fair grader, and most assignments were participation points. There were two assignments per week, a project, and a final essay. There is a lot of time built in over the semester to complete everything. This is a great class to meet a goal credit, and Dr Lindaman is a great guy.
