Dr. Russell is a good teacher! you are required to take 10 of the 14 offered weekly quizes - there are no exams. You have to write 8 2-page papers over various religions and are required to visit one Christian and one non-Christian service.

Good couse on the basics... Lecture based - follow along with him as he covers the board with ideas- not hard to follow but it is not a structured outliine. Quiz every class period over what was discussed the week before... I read over the material for about 20 minutes before class and usually get 19/20 on the quiz. Two visits are required to different religious communities and you must write papers on these visits - due anytime before the last day of class. Eight journal entries of your reaction to different religions also due by last day of class.
