Comment:

Linda is a fun and interesting lecturer. If this class had not been for marks I would have attended just to listen. BUT her tests do not reflect what she lectures, she spends 90% of class on tangents and then tests on material she covered for 10% of the time. If the majority fails she doesn't think it reflects on her. No notes posted online.

Comment:

Her passion for the subject is inspriring and if I was taking this class for fun I would have no issue. Unfortunately, as a prof teaching a class I had issues. The lectures are scattered and go off on tangents, making attaining a good grade on tests difficult. When the majority of the class barely passes or fails, it's the prof not the students.

Comment:

She is one of the worst professors I have ever had and if you desperately want or need to take a Religions course, find a different professor. Her lectures are confusing and all over the place, she provides no slides and her notes are a scribbled, unorganized mess. Also, buying the textbook was just a waste of money and paper.

Comment:

Linda, love to teach and loves her students. New Religious Movement was a fun class and very interactive. We had to do a book report, essay, and presentation. It is cool that they have a course that I have a strong interest in, and Linda is an expert in the field. It did not feel like class. Linda cared more about what her students learn.

Crazy heavy lectures with 0 important information to do with the exams. This is very frustrating as she is barely helpful at all. If you need these courses, take them elsewhere. A humanities prof should not have 20+ people in one class angry about a test

Unreal prof teaching really important content. Highly recommend. Come to class with an open mind. She has a ton of amazing life experience and knowledge to share. Watched some really cool documentaries on the occult, Wicca and Alchemy. Really fun class.

Linda's passionate about religion & an amazing, energetic lecturer. Yes, you have show up, pay attention & take notes to pass but hey... it's called being a student. She tries to connect with students & provides field trips. Not the most difficult material but you do have to try. If you want an 'easy A' with no effort you shouldn't be in college.

Comment:

Textbook should not be on the list for required things. Tests are all purely based on her lectures and if you miss a class, you're hooped. Tests are very specific, although she sometimes isn't. A very nice person, not a good prof. Lectures are quick paced and scribbled on the board most of the time. Powerpoints are barren and not all that helpful.

Comment:

Amazing prof and lectures are interesting but if you miss a class, good luck getting back on track. Doesn't use the textbook at all, everything is based off of the notes she scribbles on the board. Useless asking her for help, all she said was to ask a classmate. Make sure you make a few friends in this class cause Christensen wont help at all.

Comment:

Her lectures bounced all over the place (no slides) and made it difficult for me to take notes. I didn't really know what to focus on when studying for tests. There was one paper where you could choose your own topic, which I found easy, but no clear guidelines. If you don't follow along well with straight lectures I wouldn't recommend this class.

Comment:

Linda was a great prof I took her for World Religion Oriental and Occidental. Both easy A's. It's a really good class if you're great at writing notes because she bases her tests on her own notes, so no need to buy the textbook. Although she is hard to follow sometimes since her lecture style is so unstructured, she is entertaining to watch!

Really nice person and very passionate. Her lectures are next to impossible to follow though. She scribbles all over the board at a fast pace and doesn't seem to have much structure to the class. The assigned research paper is HUGE for an intro class and you are not prepared in the slightest for it. really nice person, not a good professor though.

Linda is a wonderful professor, i enjoyed every single one of her classes. Her notes are easy to follow, however, it was a bit of a challenge to write it down as she always uses arrows to connect her points. Textbook was not used at all. Tests are based on her notes and lectures. Definitely would take again.

Linda is a very passionate teacher - even if none of her students know what the heck is going on. Very interesting class, but she gets off topics and go through slides too fast and doesn't post them online. Lenient marker - very helpful and will work with you through whatever problems you have.

Linda is a wonderful prof, I really liked her. There is no mid-term or final, only quizzes and a paper. She is a very funny woman and I enjoyed her lectures (they might seem long for some). She is really passionate about what she teaches. I would take other courses with her.

She's a bit odd but she's extremely charismatic and her lectures are awesome. I could listen to her talk about gravel for three hours and I'd still be listening intently. I didn't buy the textbooks but I got an A just from taking notes. Don't miss any classes.

I thought Linda was a little crazy at first but really, she's just passionate about the subject. Be prepared to attend class and take lots of notes, especially for the midterm. Average for the midterm was barely a pass but other than that, very lenient with marking and not hard to get good marks.
