Amazing professor, clearly so knowledgeable. Very compassionate, loves a tangent, and prepares sufficiently for all tests and essays (scaffolding lover). Lots of readings but all interesting and informative. Attendance is not mandatory, but in class quizzes on lectures, she drops a couple low scores, so not unflexible by any means.

Dr. Thomas is absolutely amazing! She is very knowledgeable and well spoken. Attendence is mandatory, but her lectures give you all of the information you need for assignments. One midterm in class, which she helps you prepare for. If you're interested in trying out a religious studies class I definitely recommend taking one of hers

Professor Thomas is a lovely lady. The class was VERY boring at times, but I learned a lot. There were easy in-class attendance quizzes everyday (the only reason I went). There was lots of reading, but the grading was super generous. She went on many tangents, but thankfully, she gave good study guides and lots of instruction for the final paper.

I took this class because nothing else was available, but Im glad I did. I learned more about religion and the content of lectures was really engaging. She doesn't want the class to be stressful, and it wasn't. If you follow the rubric its almost impossible to not get an A. 2 papers, 2 weekly reading and lecture quizzes and a weekly assignment.

Professor Thomas was always engaging and funny during lecture. Her motto is to get her students working, but not stressed, and she certainly does that. She got me really interested in a religious studies I wound up picking because it was all that was left pass 3. If you see one of her classes, take it.

Readings + Lectures were interesting and she was very accomodating + understanding this quarter. She does lecture + reading quizzes but you get two attempts and they're easy if you're paying attention; the midterm and final are short papers which you work on in span of couple weeks with rough drafts + peer reviews. Would recommend!!
