Robert Schine

Stupid easy from day-to-day, but then pretty unfair grading when it did occur. I really did not academically benefit from the course – DO NOT TAKE it. That being said, super easy class and nice to knock one out.

This course is co-taught by professor Schine and Ortogren. While both professors are highly knowledgeable in their respective fields (Judaism and Hinduism), the lectures can be quite boring at times with constant talking. The readings are long, but the content can be interesting. Grading-wise, it's a mixed bag - the quizzes are easy, but the essays can be judged harshly. Note that professor Ortegren requires students to wear a mask in class.

The course is taught by both Professor Schine and Professor Ortegren. Prof. Ortegren teaches Hinduism, but more it's role in Indian's society bringing in her personal experiences of when she lived there. Schine focuses more on Judaism, and less on the real world, but more on its practices, traditions, and text. Schine is a hilarious teacher, but a slow-talker which can get quite long. Thankfully, Ortegren balances this out with her energetic form of teaching. The readings are quite long for the week, but it's quite an enjoyable course if you're trying to get rid of your requirement.
