I took this class for an easy GE and it did not disappoint. Assignments were due on Sunday (not even every Sunday) so I would just watch the lectures and spend an hour or so on them. He lays everything out nicely. Super easy to succeed in this class.

This was probably the easiest class I have ever taken. Professor Thomases has minimal required work with plenty of readings and videos to enhance the subject material. The entire class consisted of 4 quizzes, 2 discussion boards, 2 "essays" (300 words), and a midterm & final. That's it. Most weeks took less than 20 minutes to complete the work!

Very easygoing and great overall class experience. Was able to work at my own pace. I know if I really put the time in I could've gotten an A. But it was a very engaging and interactive course that was smooth throughout. No complaints!

The fact that its the middle of Spring sem and I havent even fully finished the course yet, but Im itching to write this review just goes to show how much I want to express my appreciation for Prof. Drew. Long story short, the lectures are all so interesting and fun, the class is very doable and not stressful at all, and Prof. Drew is the GOAT.

I took this class online so all my lectures were recorded but his course is very interesting. The work load is not heavy at all, requires no textbooks, has short lectures, short films, some readings, 4 quizzes and about 2 discussions. He is very considerate during midterms by giving you the whole week off. Overall good professor and cool class.

Loved this class. Lectures were not too long and were interesting and easy to understand. There was usually one assignment every week, either a quiz or a short essay. Spent about an hour and half at most on this class every week. Highly recommend his class, he's super chill and seems to be easy to approach.

Love the way he lectures and the content itself is very interesting. I thoroughly enjoyed his class. He's also very clear on his instructions and expectations. No textbook, just take really good notes and you'll be fine. Definitely recommend this class! I'll be taking another class with Dr. Thomases in the summer.

Professor Drew is a real gem! His class will blow your mind. You will learn to look at life in a different perspective after his class. No textbook required. Take very good notes on his lectures as the midterm and final are cumulative. I got an A+ just by taking very good notes on his lectures and readings. Only two writing assignments on films.

Wonderful human being, makes the class flow so well w/ discussions. Clear on his instruction, he enjoys what he does. Took this class to satisfy WPA. It's basically a semester long project on a religion of your choice & writing a paper about it. Few brief hw assignments. Do the work, try & you'll get full credit. Enjoyed his class, take him

His class is very enjoyable. He has experienced some wild things and is not afraid to share with you what he's done. The class is consists of: midterm, 1 essay, final, and 5 quizzes (1 gets dropped). He likes you to talk to your classmates. You don't need a textbook either, he provides all the readings.

Hands down the greatest professor I've ever had. I cannot express enough how amazing this professor is. Please take his class, you won't regret it!!! Easily accessible outside of class if you need a hand, readings are sometimes long but very interesting, and lectures are charming and easy to follow along! Do yourself a favor and take him.

Make sure to take good notes while he lectures. He does not put words in the powerpoint slides. Therefore, it's kinda mandatory to go to class if you don't do the reading. Sometimes he does random quizzes. Overall, a caring and professional professor.

One of the best professors I've ever had, I've never been more inspired and looked forward always to go to class. You definitely need to go to class, be involved in discussion, read for the homework, and put in effort for the field site project and you will be rewarded. I wish more professors were like him, he's so charming.
