Comment:
SUCH AN EASY CLASS!!! Her weekly assignments were just based off the outline she provided. The people who said her class is hard were probably just lazy and didn't even try to follow her instructions. It's a very simple class. Read the chapter and look at the outline provided to complete the assignments. I took it online and got 100% in the class.

Honestly, this was such a great class. She has a very specific outline for each weekly assignment so if you follow that you'll get all the points. Every time you finish a section there's a "Portfolio" where u can make up the points u got off from previous assignments and also an essay. The class was very easy. No tests or quizzes. Take it online!

Here's week five and I still have no idea what this professor expects for her assignments, not only does she use a weird layout for her instructions but they are super confusing like trying to build a furniture piece with foreign language instructions. I know I will fail but it is o late to drop so I will have to just let it be. DO NOT TAKE THIS!

I feel like I killed a small forest, we had so many papers due. Every week a research paper. Class is like 5 minutes long usually lol so seriously don't be late. Don't buy the book, just take pictures of it from the library cuz we never took it to class really. Honestly, I only looked at it once for reference. If you can't write well, don't take it

Everyone is right in saying she is intimidating at first, but she is truly a diamond. She has a unique structure of her class that was confusing at first, but really came into its own. She clearly knows what she is doing and has my respect. If you are ready to do something different and open your mind, take this professor, you won't regret it.

Not the warmest professor in the world, but stick to it. She's really intimidating on the first day of class, but if you stick to it you will learn a lot from her and she'll start to soften up a tiny bit. As long as you do the work, participate in class and show up on time, it'll be a smooth semester for you! Definitely take her.

This professor may seem like a strict lady on the first day but she really sweet and kind throughout the semester. During classes, she really made sure we understood the assignments. She does not give any tests but her assignments are very time consuming. The lecture rarely passed over 20 minutes.

This prof is very rough around the edges, but has a heart of gold. She wants you to think, not just sit there. Say something in class. No classes went full 3 hours. Paper assignment was very clear. Re-write chance to get the A you want. Read the books and do the models and you are good to go. BE ON TIME. She hates late comers.

Professor Lam-Easton is an awesome Professor. She is intimidating at first but once you have had the chance to sit through a couple of her classes, she is great. If you worker harder than your average student, she gives you respect and helps you in any way she can. I enjoyed her class very much and she's interesting. Take her, you won't regret it.

Comment:
I was disappointed at the quality of instruction given by this professor. She assigns a 10-15 page "model," and doesn't accept anything in essay format? Also, whenever students raised their hands, the instructor would often shut them down, and refuse to answer their questions. The two textbooks we used in class did not relate to the essay.

Dr. Lam Easton is brilliant! I took her for RS204, RS395, RS310 AND RS390. She's helpful, caring, clear, concise and to the point. She has challenged me in so many ways, my levels of sophistication in writing and critical thinking have developed so well over the years. She is amazing, without a doubt!

Professor Easton is VERY intimidating at first, but she has a kind and caring heart. She wants you to learn, but you have to work for it! If you don't want to work for your grade, then don't take this class. There were weekly models, discussions, and one big paper. Attendance counts & participation is looked for. Never stayed the whole 3 hours.

Not the warmest and fuzziest person, very intimidating on day 1 but keep with it. There are no tests really, just Buddhist models, working in class groups and a big paper, which you must do a good job after draft 1 feedback. She never kept us the whole 3 hrs. She makes you think and provides no materials other than the texts.

Comment:
Hmmm. She can be strict, cross, and particular, and her assignments can be very pedantic; her grading is harsh, as well. The good part is class got out within 20-30 minutes, but accordingly don't take this class if you commute far. Just do the best you can to fulfill the assignments, and try to focus on what she teaches.

Professor Lam- Easton is one of the best professors I have ever had. She is clear and to the point with assignments. Class never took longer than half an hour. The work is semi-heavy but super once you get the hang of it. I recommend taking her for this class and I am sure any other class she teaches. Just do the really easy work.

Comment:
She seems scary at first, but after a while she's easy-going and funny. The assignments are a lot of work, but she explains them well and if you budget your time well, you'll be fine. No tests, no midterm, and no final. She let us out of class like an hour early every day, but do not be late to class ever!

Do not show up late, do all the reading and hw assignments and you will be fine. Homework is necessary prep for final paper which is 10+ pages. NO FINAL EXAM! I loved her class, lectures were more discussion on readings. Don't take this class unless you are interested in doing the work and engaging in meaningful conversation. Classes ended early.

Comment:
She is a wonderful professor! She may appear intimidating at first, but once you get past the first few weeks you come to truly appreciate her teaching style. The final papers she assigns for her courses are also one of the best ways to prepare for writing very long papers in grad school in any humanities or social and behavioral fields.
