Reviews of professor Christopher Einolf

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Lectures are pretty dry and he tends to move quickly through them. However he does post all of the Powerpoints online so it's easy to get the info you missed. Good class discussions. Basically, if you do the readings and you show up, you'll do fine on the exams. He lets you bring in one sheet of notes for exams. Papers have clear rubrics.

 I enjoyed his teaching a lot! He is a little lecture heavy but it's things that relate to the real world. He is also very understanding. The assignment are pretty easy, as long as you pay attention. The study guides help lots on the two exams the mid term and final!

He wasn't a bad professor, but he wasn't overly interesting either. He taught the material well, and if you take notes you'll be able to pass easily. I never used my textbook. He does however have papers and quizzes due each week, they're pretty easy but I wouldn't miss more than one of each. Attendance is mandatory if you want to pass. Would rec.

Einolf made this class very participation centered. There is group discussion every day about the reading(s) for the day. He provides all readings so you dont have to buy anything. It was a lot of reading but most were interesting and the questions were easy to answer in class. No tests, only midterm paper and final paper both 7-9 pages

Lot of lecturing but occasional five min breaks. Assigned a weekly paper due every Monday. Bit condescending when answering questions but at least he answered. Always good feedback on essays. Frequent class discussions- waited for students to respond but they were usually somewhat interesting. 2-3 provided readings to be discussed for every class.

If you are a fan of quizzes and lectures then this is the class for you. He does a really good job of balancing group participation and lectures that are interesting and easy to understand.

395 was one of my favorite classes I have ever taken in college. There was a lot of reading (all of which Dr. Einolf provides for you), but the material is fascinating. He expects a lot of participation but my class was all very interested and engaged so it was a phenomenal environment.

The class consists of essays, quizzes, and only 2 exams (midterm and final). Professor is nice and teaches well. He makes the class interesting by making us interact with each other on certain subjects. Overall, nice Professor and grades fairly.
