The content was pretty interesting and we had some cool discussions. however it was a 2.5 hour seminary and she could often get onto tangents and talk a lot, so sometimes it was hard to pay attention. but she's very nice and i thought she was a very fair grader with pretty clear expectations about what she wanted from our in class assignments. after each one she gave both individual and overall feedback for the class. the readings were a lot but you're supposed to split them up with your group. I think this lets a lot of stuff hinge on how good of a group you get which i didn't love because i generally don't like group work. in the end it was a good class and i'd recommend it if you want to learn more about the topic

Fields really knows what she is talking about. This class is the first of the type that I have ever taken, and I am really fortunate to have had Fields. She really knows her stuff about environmental ethics and justice. Her lectures can be kind of boring, because of all of the information. It is hard to pay attention the whole time. The readings are a lot, but she even tells you to skim. There are bi/tri weekly reading responses, and some sort of paper or final project. She is very accessible and flexible with turning in things. Just come to class, stay engaged, and speak every once in awhile and you will be golden.
