Reviews of professor Christian Early

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Early is a super nice man and very lenient with deadlines, which I appreciated. However, the class was pretty uninteresting and very repetitive. There was also a lot of reading that you had to implement into the essays. Despite that, you're almost always guaranteed a B so it was doable.

Lecture heavy, but he keeps it lively.

He was such a nice professor. Clearly cared about everything he taught, he is such a sweet man. Lots of reading outside of class but I barely did it and still did well. We had 4 quizzes, 2 papers, and a final. The class was a decently easy A. I definitely recommend this class for Phil150.

This class is a difficult gen ed if youre in need of an "A." You seriously have to work for that A, the content is super easy but he is such a tough grader. There are reading before each class and that isn't even the hard part. The hard part was trying score high on the test to perform a decent grade in the class.

Prof Early is a great guy but I found his lectures to be confusing and hard to grasp. I barely read the two books and did fine on quizzes, but he is a hard grader. Would give comments "excellent work" or "solid essay" but still give a low b and no explanation. Also changed every quiz&final to online last minute.

Dr. Early is amazing. I went into this class not thinking I would really care that much about philosophy, but he really made all of the topics we covered so interesting. He also gives excellent feedback on quizzes and papers, he genuinely wants to see you succeed and learn more about the eight key questions. He is also very down to earth and kind!

Dr. Early gives a lecture every class and assigns a pretty long reading every night. He is a very kind and caring professor; however, his quizzes are very hard for no reason. Despite doing the readings and attending the lectures, the content is difficult. He also assigns a few essays that he grades pretty hard.

I loved having Professor Early! He genuinely cares about every singly one of his students. There is a good amount of reading in the class, but they're usually pretty easy. He is super helpful and will meet with you to help edit your essays and just discuss anything. He is one of the best professors I have had. He is so nice, funny, and caring.

professor early was by far my favorite prof at jmu. he is so sweet, funny and genuinely cares about his students and his class content. he is a tough grader but if you do the readings and pay attention to the lectures you will do fine. he is also incredibly understanding regarding life outside his class. if you are filling a gen ed, take him!
