Would take again

This was one of my favorite professors. I took world religions and he made the class fun and one I looked forward to attending. He is extremely kind and forgiving with assignments. His grading is more than fair. Keep in mind you do need to study for the midterm and final exam (I would start at least a week in advance). Overall one of the best!!
