Awesome

She is an awesome professor. Her class was very entertaining. There were no examinations in her class. You just have to submit a one-page reaction paper to an article weekly. She is very understanding and a lenient grader. She checks attendance every class but you are allowed to have 3 absences before you start to lose points. Definitely an easy A
