Professor Larson seems like a really nice and great guy. You have to attend class because there are attendance points but there are no tests which makes this class worth taking . Lectures can be somewhat dry but If you need an easy A I recommend taking this class.

Grade is based off of 2 presentations and a take home final. He is an easier grader and a great guy. He is very knowledgeable about Native Americans. Going to class is a must and would definitely take his classes in the future.

Incredibly easy class. Did not do any of the readings but he tells you what you need to know so discussing in class is easy because you know wants he wants to hear. Just two speeches and a paper due at the end, one of the easiest diversity classes to take..

Highly recommend this class if you need a 300-level US diversity course. There's no homework, you just have to give two presentations and the midterm and final exams are both take home. Very nice & smart professor, and an easy A.

Comment:
I really don't think Sidner knows anything in-depth about American Indian literature. He assigned multiple books throughout the course and I never read one and still got an A. He thinks he is much, much smarter than he actually is. That being said, the class is a ridiculously easy A, you just have to show up and do decent on the take-home tests.

Professor Larson was a very nice person and I would take a class from him again. There were books assigned, but no quizzes or tests over them, which was nice. Besides midterm/final and two speeches, there was no other homework. Sometimes his lectures rambled quite a bit and it does get repetitive, but a good class overall.

Comment:
Good Teacher, easy class. The learning style used is essentially ramble and repeat which is meant to mimic tribal style engagement. It gets kinda old by the end of the semester, but its hard to complain when there is little homework and a take home final. I'd recommend this for an easy Us diversity course.

Really nice guy. Extremely easy class as long as you go and take notes of what he writes on the board and puts on powerpoint. All tests are take home.

He was a great professor! Very passionate about his work..lectures get long bc he rambles, but just take notes at the beginning because you just rewrite notes on the midterm since its take home. Only two oral presentations which are way easy and the second one is a group powerpoint. Smart guy and you get to watch video clips! Easy class!

He's a really nice and helpful person who tends to ramble a bit. The class was taught in a unique and sometimes confusing way, but I actually learned some useful information. I'd definitely recommend taking this class with him. He's extremely knowledgeable on the subject, it just takes awhile to get used to his style.
