Great professor. She's very interested in the topics she teaches which makes for great lectures. Assigns a decent amount of reading and expects that you arrive to class prepared. Fair grader.

Comment:
Her class is boring and unclear. She wants everyone to speak up in class neither you are shy or don't want to talk. Her grading doesn't make sense and unfair. I like her at the beginning of the semester but in the end, she seems wicked. I will not take her class again if I don't have to.

Professor Norris, Is enthusiastic in her class discussions. The material she assigns us to read online, all relate to class material so it's easy to participate in class. She is fair, and answers any questions you have. Her tests are fair and she gives plenty of opportunities to improve your grade.

Comment:
Uses blackboard for discussion postings weekly&grades them. But she looses track of your work&gives you less of a grade until you show her and prove you did it. Her grading doesnt make sense&her discussions are boring. She critisizes your opinion leaving you to believe your wrong and not want to speak up when she grades highly on participation.

I had no interest in religion before taking a class with her. I ended up minoring in Religious Studies and took all 5 classes with her. Show up, participate and do the readings and you'll do good.

Comment:
I had no interest in religious studies whatsoever beforehand but I loved this class. Dr. Norris is an amazing professor and a really nice person. Her class got me really engaged and interested in the subject and the books she chose were a lot more interesting than a textbook. If you write well, participate and do the readings you'll do fine.

Excellent Professor. Had her for comparative religion. If you do the reading and you are a competent writer its hard not to get a good grade in this class. The reading load is a bit more then expected for a 2 credit class.

She definitely loves class participation, and we had a few little quizes, one presentation and one paper (that counts as our final). Such an easy class but slightly boring

Nice lady. easy class but she is a very knowledgeable teacher. There are no exams, just a couple of group projects. There is some reading to keep up with but the quizzes she gives about them don't ask specific questions and usually just ask you to write about what you found interesting and why.

Extremely easy class. She makes the subject a little more interesting. Expect to participate in class convos and "think critically". There is a significant amount of reading, but the final group project is easy and fun.

Easy A. Her classes are really boring but if you participate she'll love you. Chapter summaries and tests were easy, and your final is a group project.

Very cool teacher. She helped me with an outside of class issue and was always willing to help. Talks a lot but if you participate once in a while, you will be fine. Very nice lady.

She is very nice and approachable. She will give easy/broad essay topics and grades them easy. She basically tells you what is on the tests and quizes. Interesting course. Homework is usually short readings from the book. I highly recommend this class!
