this class broadened my views on world religion.. i learned so much more about the different religions of the world.. the study guide helps out great on exams.. which are pretty easy.. there are no trick questions.. very straight forward..
Dr. Levesque is awesome! He is so helpful, so interesting and very good at giving both the liberal and conservative views of Catholicism. I recommend him for every class he teaches.
Very interesting class! 3 essays, 1 Midterm and Test. He grades fair on essays and a little harder on tests. He's an awesome, intelligent teacher, though. If you study, you'll have no problem.
Levesque is so cute! He loves what he does and makes class super interesting.
He is very helpful and loves to teach. His study guide assists very well on exams because his exams are straight from the study guide. Just take this class for G.E. credit because he is one of the best.
He was one of the best teachers I have had at CSUF. He inspired me to take more religion classes. Definately take him for any GE requirement that you need out of the way!!!!!
test are easy because they are based word for word...i learned alot from this class...niceset teacher in the world!
I thought the course was interesting since it covered early Christianity. Dr Levesque is always willing to help if you have questions or concerns. Advantage to his course is the study guide. It will be useful. Highly knowledgeable individual.
He's erudite and speaks clearly. If he can't answer your question for you in class, he'll research it and tell you next time. Tests correspond to his lectures.
He can tell u everything you wanted to know about anything! Very into helping the student get the A. His tests look just like the study guides. Easy A!
very good teacher, i learned a lot more than i expected. he's actually kind of funny sometimes. i actually am going to take another one of his classes, just for fun.
One of the best teachers at csuf...He is so funny. I have loved all the classes that I have taken with him. It is a delight to go to his class.
One of the nicest teachers you could take. Answers emails within hours and is always willing to help in any way he can. He is witty too. He appears to be personally concerned about every student, he learns the students names after about 2 weeks. Tests are a little challenging, but fair.
The nicest guy ever!!! No need to get the book, just use his study guide and go to class. Very interesting class, easy tests if you read the study guide, super nice guy!
This is a class to take only if you have too... Levesque is interesting but the course is not. He is very helpfull but that does not make the subject anymore interesting. its a tough class too, for the most part.
He's a really good teacher and very helpful. I would take him for everything.
Core requirement for all majors and minors. I thought he made the class material understandable. Who knows? Perhaps if it was another professor teaching the course, it would be quite difficult.
I've had Dr. Levesque for CPRL 200, 300, 345A, and 350T and he rocks for all of them! He is funny, and you learn sooo much in his classes. Plus, the tests are not hard.
Dr. Levesque is the most wonderful professor I've had at CSUF. He's passionate about what he teaches, and he cares about the students success in the class. I plan on taking most of my required classed for my religious studies major with him. TAKE HIS CLASSES! Tests are easy, grades papers easy.
Really good teacher, just be sure to go to every class and you will do fine
He is really easy and tries to work with the student. He also will look up information for questions that you have in class. He is very, very detailed and organized.
Hes easy! Take him! Dont buy the book you dont need it! all you need is the worksheets, and go to class to get the notes! thats it, ALL the tests are word of word right off your workshets so make sure you got them right and get study those!
He is the most wonderful prof at CSUF. He is without a doubt THE BEST. He is easy but he challenges your mind. He is ALWAYS helpful in whatever you need. He will give you the time of day. He cares for his students. There aren't enough words to describe how great Professsor Levesque is. High recommendation to take him.
I REALLY LIKED THIS CLASS! He's such a great professor too!! Test answers are in his study guide and lecture. This class was very intersting to me and I really liked it. He's very wise too! Great professor! TAKE HIM!
Class was very interesting, especially for Christians wanting to understand the diversity within Christianity. Good professor, constructive grader and always willing to listen to students' views. Attend class and fill out study guide and you will be fine. Didn't use the books and got an A, just take notes
He is great. Biased in his Religion & Politics but redeemed himself in 300. Regardless he is funny and entertaining and we were able to joke around in class. It made those 3 hour classes go by much faster.
Very easy, gives you all the answers in class. Very clear. His booklet thing is important so buy it. The book is not needed dont waste money. Nice guy, tries very hard to answer every question you can possibly have.
Knows his stuff!!! He is a really amazing man/professor. Kind to everyone and is very interesting.
He is an incredible man. He is the best professor I have had at CSUF. TAKE HIM! FOR THE LOOOOVE OF GOOOOD!
Dr Levesque is perhaps the most genunie and nicest professors at CSUF. Furthermore, you can probably get by in his classes by taking good lecture notes. I didn't necessarily read the book unless he suggested to read a particular topic. Although I would recommend buying the book just in case.
I loved this guy! He was honestly the nicest professor I've ever had and he really knew what he was talking about. His tests were easy and his lectures were pretty interesting. I would definitely recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn about different religions and those who want an easy A.
He is the best! I totally suggest taking his class! The class seems as if it would be really hard if he weren't teaching it! He is so adorable to...and funny! Seriously take his class you'll love him and if you don't well i'm sorry because he is the best ever!

GREAT teacher! He wants his students to do well. DON'T miss class and DON'T buy the book, just his study guide.
Great professor. Helps out as much as he can, if you're lost; he'll make sure you understand. Im gonna miss him cuz hes dorky funny and very nice. he gave us halloween candy! haha :P
This class has opened my eyes to other religions and professor Levesque is the best professor on the campus. He wants you to understand the material and he'll help you whenever you need help. He's funny and nice. He'll answer all your questions. Class is easy. Just go to class.
great guy. One of the greatest proffessors I've encountered and I'm a senior. He's approachable and very laid back. He loves what he does and it shows by how well he does it. I really liked him as a teacher because he goes out of his way to help. I really recommend him.He's also really funny
He's a great guy! This is the first time I took a religion class, but he keeps it interesting. Lots of movie clips, and just random info that's nice to know. The papers are easy, just summarize. Tests are open book--but just listen in class, and you'll get an A!
My favorite class ever, my favorite professor ever. He went out of his way to help me get INTO the class, and I am thankful he did. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about what he teaches and he wants you to do well! It was an easy course too. I've never recommended a professor or a course so highly.
Levesque is awesome. He really wants students to do well. The class is really interesting. Study guide has everything you need to know for tests. Show up to class for attendance and notes, but puts powerpoint notes on Blackboard everyday. 2 papers, 4 exams, Final. DONT BUY THE BOOK, only the study guide. Posts grades same days as test.
He is by far one of my favorite professors. He teaches extremly well, and is very helpfull. I love the fact that he is passionate about what he does and puts alot of effort into his job, therefore making it enjoyable for students to be in his class. He is always there to help, and you he is very fair, you will get the grade you worked for.
TAKE HIM!!! BEST PROFESSOR EVER
Very nice teacher! Loved his class. Has a booklet you buy and take noter right out of there. Lecture were very straight forward. Attendance is mandatory for this class. Tests you just study right out of the booklet and you should do fine. I got an A in his class
I love this class, it gets me so motivated and interested in the different religions. I'm not the kind to ask questions but this class inspires me more thn the others and I enjoy seeing Pr. Levesque's enthusiasm. He takes time to find answers for students questions and even in a large classroom his lectures are esy to follow and understand
He's so sweet and nerdy. He tries really hard to be nice when someone answers a question wrong haha. He's a great teacher. The class is pretty easy and quite interesting. He posts notes and audio online so attendance isn't necessary- BUT don't miss too many cuz he takes attendance and it effects your grade! great class- take it!
Very good professor. Lectures are very clear. Learn a lot in this class. Helps u 2 b more open minded & explains religions so that you can almost put yourself in other's shoes. Make sure to study the workbook the most, not the textbook. Just do well on Exams and don't procrastinate with studying, this class is all about memorization. Pretty easy.
Prof. Levesque is such a great professor and you can really tell that he's into what he is teaching. Because he's so nice, it seems that he can't get mad because he is scared of the students lol. No hw, exams after the end of every religion learned(4, i think?). Overall, it's an easy A.
Levesque is a nice guy. He can be a bit scatterbrained at times going off topic and talking to himself, but he isn't bad. This was not my favorite class, but only because I am a strong Christian and I feel that the way he teaches his class kind of promotes all the religions he teaches. The part on Christianity wasn't entirely accurate in my opinion
Dr. Levesque is one of the best professors ever. He is funny and silly and a bit of a dork. The class was boring sometimes in the beginning but he tried to make it fun. Later discussions were great and entertaining.Tests are easy but there are 3 longer essays and 5 video projects but only 1 page. Also a current event presentation. Highly recommend.
I took the web section of his class and it was great! He was extremely organized from day 1 (he posted every single assignment and duedate on blackboard). I would definitely suggest this class to someone else.
Loved him!I admit I procrastinated, A WHOLE LOT.. (especially since it was an online class) but he helped me in any way he can to help me pass the class!! Definitely recommend him :) Very organized and he knows what he's talking about
Just about the nicest, sweetest professor I've ever met-- always willing to help even if you make frustrating mistakes. This particular class includes lots of current events discussion(great for politics junkies), the writing assignments are fairly easy, and the exams are partly open-book so you don't need to memorize everything.
Very caring professor, uses a note taking book and you just fill in the blanks and tests come straight from it. Expect a page report about once every 2 weeks and an exam every 3 weeks. In summary, easy class but assigns a good amount of hw. I would take this professor if you like easy going classes
Prof. Levesque is one of the best professors around. He's nice and always willing to help. If you need to fulfill your GE, TAKE THIS CLASS!
I took this online. A lot of busy work, but it was all very interesting. He is very helpful and very friendly. Great professor!
took online and it required a lot more time that any in class would have taken. a ton of homework to do but it was easy.
This man is one of the greatest teachers ever. He LOVES what he teaches and it is quite obvious. He tends to backtrack and stumble on his words sometimes but its bearable. He is goes to great detail for explanations and is always available to talk to, easy A as well. One of the friendliest teachers you will ever meet. Taking him is a NO-Brainer.
Online Class: Class structure was well organized; promptly responds to emails. Weekly workbook, which corresponds to a lecture, video, and readings; weekly communication assignment (email, discussion post, or essay); three essays total; weekly timed quiz; cumulative final. Read and complete assignments and you shouldn't have any trouble.
Professor Levesque is a AMAZING professor! So passionate & knowledgable! I gave him a A! As for the topic/ content itself, Catholicism, it was pretty good. Some topics were REALLY interesting, others a bit boring. Still Levesque is a great lecturer. It's not a easy A, but very attainable to get a B-C. I recommend the class and Professor L.
Paul is awesome! He is very informative during his lecture and knows a lot about what he teaches. 3 papers a midterm in final which consist of 25 t/f and 25 short answers. Take notes , go to class, and read a little " even though i never really did" best professor ive had at csuf without a doubt.
Easily one of the best professors at CSUF. Extremely nice and helpful. He is extremely clear in everything he expects you to know and the study guides are extremely representative of what's on the exam. Your grade is based off three papers and two exams. Not the easiest A in the world, but extremely passable.
Dr. Levesque is amazing! He is incredibly helpful and it's easy to see that he truly cares about his work and his students. Please take a course with him if you have the opportunity.
Took this class online and Prof. Levesque was so organized and well prepared for every week. He laid out everything for us in a timely and comprehensible manor and it was extremely easy to do all the work. Pay attention to the lecture, and do the readings and assignments assigned and you should be just fine. He is so nice and and easy grader!
I took his online class and I loved it! Extremely organized and well thought out. He posts assignments early so that you can complete them in a timely manner. There are a lot of assignments so if you do poorly on one you will have a chance to get your grade back up. Bad news is that you have to get 94% to get an A, a little high if you ask me.
Took this course online. He is extremely helpful! 3 modules due every week and consists of 70+questions. ALOT of work and quizzes at the end of ea. Module. Final is on the entire course, hard but do-able. 3 essays. Ended up with a B
Summer session demanded a LOT! 3 modules per week, each with a quiz, little assignment, and a workbook with 70+ questions. Concept was fair to understand. However, easy to get a B, HARD to get an A. He is extremely helpful, and will reply almost instantly. Excellent prof. overall.
Professor Levesque was AWESOME! I took the online course, all the material was straight forward & organized. He responds to emails very promptly! Overall, it was a great class! Do the homework & keep up with the readings and you'll do great!
SECTd, loved, loved this claas! Highly recommend! Very good professor very good person! You can tell he loves what he does and is there for the students. Do all the work, attend class and review your notes before the testwork you'll do great! Aftee first test youll know what he expects. Miss this class already!

Great class and amazing professor. He's totally passionate about the subject. The classwork consists of a workbook where you answer questions in class and study those for the tests. Homework is an assigned question that you answer and have to say out loud in class every chapter. Easy, but it's also a great class. Highly recommend.
Good teacher that had his class organized. do the modules and answer all the questions and some of the quiz answers are online so look them up and the final and midterm are straight from the modules
Levesque is a highly organized professor who makes the boring subject of religion tolerable. Attendance mandatory because he takes roll. Must listen to him and follow along his powerpoints because you fill in the notebook you must purchase. Tests comes straight from the notebook, so memorize it well. Easy A in my opinion.
It's an easy class, but get ready for a lot of busy work. You have around 80 + questions a week to answer, and you MUST get all the books. There's no way around that. It's easy to leave the HW to the last minute, but it will suck if you do with the amount he gives.
This class demands a lot of time. Consists of reading about 40 pages a week and completing a workbook consisting of 60-80 questions. There's a quiz at the end of each week. Only three 2-page essays. FASTEST GRADING PROFESSOR EVER. I even got my essay back the next day. He emails very promptly. One of the best online courses!
Dr. Levesque makes the online experience as convenient as possible. This was my first ever online class and it was a great experience for me. It requires staying on top of things and taking several hours out of your week but this course isn't hard. He responds to e-mails quickly too.
Professor Levesque is a great professor! He is very organized and helpful. The class is a lot of work, and you have to stay on top of things. However, it is not impossible to ask. The exam questions come from the module, so you should do the modules.
great teacher, very organized, watch the videos, complete the modules; the quizzes and tests are easy so you will be just fine
He is very informative and helpful. Very laid back and understanding. I went to him for advice on classes to take for my next semesters. Definitely recommend him for a class!
Not even a religion major, but one of the best experiences Ive had taking an online class. Clear directions each week. Just watch the 2-3 short videos and read the chapter while doing the worksheet, take the weekly quiz, do a discussion post. 3 hours of work per week. Awesome guy, easy class, and very interesting actually.
Great teacher, always willing to help and cares about his students! Definitely recommend!
I enjoyed the lectures, all in video format online. He checks your Titan Audit to see what classes you need to earn a minor or major in the Comp Religious dept. Available by email and office hours. Amazing and fun lectures. New Testament and general global statistics are used to show how Christianity spread across the Diaspora in ancient times. Fun
Professor Levesque is a great guy. He is very understanding of late work, and always gives second chances. His respect is earned by participating. However, lecture is very boring and long. You will watch a lot of good movies, and some bad. Make sure you do your work before class because he randomly calls on you. Be ready to read, write, and watch!
Dr. Levesque is absolutely amazing! I took his Conceptions of the Afterlife class and it was so interesting. He made everything super easy to use through Canvas. Very interesting material in a super clear format. I definitely recommend taking RLST 375 with him!
Dr. Levesque is such a great person, and RLST375 is an interesting course! I looked forward to Dr. Levesque's pre-recorded lectures every week because of his creativity. Two exams, a weekly workbook, one paper, and short communication posts.
Professor Levesque is such a kind professor and he actually cares about his students! The online course consists of weekly assignments due every Sunday which include a workbook, a discussion post, and a small quiz. They are all fairly easy and all the answers to the workbook are from the reading. As long as you complete the workbooks you'll be set!
RECOMMEND. Very nice professor, wants you to do well. Quizzes each week (15 ?'s). HW is workbooks- answers in every lecture. Roughly 75 ?'s to workbooks, but you go through them quick- based on lectures. Had one paper- choose 1 religion outside of lectures to discuss. Final and midterm is quiz/workbook ?'s. Free textbook on canvas. Learned a lot.
The professor is super sweet and is accessible outside of class. He has a clear format/ is very organized. Each week there are workbook questions, a quiz, and sometimes it's either a discussion board or an email to him. There are two exams, overall, you'll be fine as long as you study the workbook questions.
This class is super easy but also very informative. There's weekly short lectures, reading, a workbook, quiz, and discussion forum. There's also one short paper (3-4 pages) and two exams. Prof Levesque is great and quick to respond to any questions, I'd highly recommend!
Once you figure out the format of the modules, they are very easy to follow. Clear instructions, clear due dates, and interesting lectures. He's accessible by text and answers quickly. All test answers are in the study guides. He handled the various religions with respect and I appreciated that. Highly recommend Dr. Levesque.
Professor Levesque is the most caring and engaging professor. He is available at all times an provides great feedback. He gives multiple attempts to complete class assignments. I would take him again and encourage others to do so.
Probably the best professor in this subject, you can tell he wants you to learn and makes it a fun experience for the student. There is a lot of reading but it pays off since that's how the answers to the workbook is found. Quizzes can be hard due to how much is covered but they are all open note. A professor that cares about his students, 10/10.
Absolutely brilliant professor!! One midterm, one paper, one final exam, and weekly homework. Lectures consist of weekly videos that tie into homework so you can't skip but the lectures are very engaging and not long since I watch at double speed. Have to use the textbook as well for the hw but you can always ctrl+f it. 10/10 would recommend him!!
Paul Levesque is an amazing professor and RLST 375 is such an interesting course! As long as you are willing to put in the time for his lectures and readings, it should be very easy to get a good grade! I am sad that I won't be able to take any more classes with him because I am in a different major. This is one of the best classes I've ever taken!
Dr. Levesque's RLST375 class is a great online option. The workbooks, quizzes, and discussion posts make it easy to stay on top of the material. I found Unstuck study really helpful for preparing for the exams. Overall, an engaging and manageable course.
This is a great, easy class for the semester. There is a workbook once a week that you just watch videos and fill-in the blanks to and a weekly quiz afterwards (only 15 questions). You can finish all the work for the week in about one to two hours. He also responds super fast and cares about his students.
Just an all around great professor and class. Canvas is extremely organized and straightforward. Just the right amount of work required and no subjective or nitpicky grading. Every week was a workbook for a couple videos and readings, sometimes a discussion board, and a quiz, plus two exams over the semester.
Really straightforward and organized canvas page. Simple lectures that I found pretty interesting, and his notes are pretty much a fill-in-the-blank kind of situation. He's really caring, and is one of the easiest classes I've had.
As long as you complete the assignments, you'll be fine. He has good videos that explain everything clearly, and you can tell he enjoys the subject. The weekly assignment can sometimes feel long, but it always follows the same structure. He responds quickly to any questions and is very supportive if students need help.
